Comments Thread For: Roach: Cotto No Better, Pacquiao Beats Him Every Day

[freedom213]

Only a few days to go before we get our answer on a Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao fight. An agreement was sent to Mayweather for his approval. If Mayweather approves, the fight would happen on November 13 in Las Vegas. Mayweather was given a mid-July deadline to approve the terms. If Pacquiao can't get Mayweather for November, Top Rank has two possible opponents who are ready and willing. [Click Here To Read More]

I have been hard on Freddie lately but I have to respect him for stating no catch weight. He is entitled to his opinion but I see quite a bit of improvement from Cotto just dont know the one fight will be enough to get him a very tough win over Manny. Of course not even Freddie knows what 154, bigger gloves will do to Manny so time will tell maybe.

Pac will come in around 147. Cotto at 154. And Pac will beat him up again. Pointless all around.

Agree. I'm tired of the Top Rank circle jerk. Win or lose, I want to see new fighters thrown into the mix.

We all know it's all about the business now, so I doubt we'll see anything but the combination of Cotto/Pacquiao/Margarito for the next year or so.

This story line has happened before many times through boxings history, and the great thing about boxing is that no outcome is predetermined.

Steward could come up with a fantastic gameplan to beat Pac

Pac could be affected by the weight or the gloves

Pac could be affected by his personal situation, its not like he now doesnt have very important duties outside of the ring

And of course as in any boxing match Cotto could catch him and stop him early

the opposite could also play out with Pac dominating again

This could be a very exciting and great fight possibly leading to a great trilogy, or it could be another historical moment in the career of Manny Pac.

154 is the limit of the divsion. Pacquiao doesn't have to weight anywhere close to 154, he can come in at 147.5 if that's where he feels comfortable.

True good point I wasn't thinking

I understand where you coming from and realize the intangibles. As boxing fans we all know anything can happen, or as Merchant likes to put it, "the theater of the unexpected."

For me, it's just too soon, the interest isn't there. Maybe after a quality win or two from Cotto I might change my mind.

If the pac floyd fight gets cut, It should be Cott vs Marg, and Pac vs hmm I want to say either Williams or Bradley. Maybe even Berto, he has speed and power, it might be a little early but I do think he has a shot.

Forget about Mayweather, Cotto, and Margarito, Pacquiao should fight Bradley! He's the best jr. welterweight in the world! He's better than Cotto and maybe as good as Mayweather. Bradley is young and strong! If Manny beats him, it would further enhance his legacy as the best fighter of all time!

Like we didnt know that already, of course pacquiao beats cotto right now, pacquiao securing another title and i bet itll be a catchweight, cause thats what he does, instead of retiring with glory and guns blazing, he prefers to fight someone he beat very bad and at a catchweight, all because he wouldnt agree to full testing, thats a cloud that will follow him forever, now if only mayweather agrees to this fight so that we can truly see whos the best... mayweather has to say yes cause this is where the money is!!!

Did you read the article, Roach said no catchweight; at 154lbs Pacquiao beats Cotto everyday of the week. Please read the article first.

mayweather and pac fight won't happen. i don't know how the hell pac thinks he gets a 50-50 split
