    My internet connection is crappin' out on me today. I'm trying to post Pac's weigh-in stats for his last fight(including all measurements: reach etc.) for comparison with Cotto's same information for Torres. Can somebody else do this??

    I've weighed-in saying that Pac can beat Cotto if you look at speed, power and chin. I think Pac might connect on Cotto's chin with power that is enough to make his legs go wobbly. How bout those stats though?

      Cotto was around 155 at fight time with Corely. So I guess his weight was about that level as well when he took on Torres. His fight night weight was not known last weekend.

      Pac puts on about 10 pounds over the official weight limit on fight night.

        Snoop .... sure, the weight thing is pretty well known, but I'm looking to actually size-up these guys to see who's truly on the outside (which must me pac, I suppose) and other ****.

        Reach might not be the absolute controlling fctor though, like it can be in most fights, since Pac is quite explosive and can close the distance quickly and get that left hand flush and fully extended. Pac probably would get tagged hard more than once doing this, but it's not Cotto's countering Pac that concerns me as much as Cotto's chin.

            I'm a fan of Cotto and Pac. I can't believe this thread is already on its 9th page. I don't know if I'm going to laugh or entertain the possibility. All I can say is Pac is wise enough to know his limits. Roach and Pac declined a possible fight with Casamayor (and that's just at lightweight huh) saying that to even explore it was outrageous. Pac's doesnt have the physical dimensions to fight Cotto. Skill and all, Pac can't compete with Cotto on a catch weight. But if Cotto were to go down to Pac's weight, Cotto would get kayoed due to shortened stamina and a dehydrated body.

                he's not a natural 130, but his last fight showed he can adjust. Already he's pumping his body with a bigger frame and bigger muscles and yet he doesn't seem to slow down. PAC will be fine at 130, then after beating Morales, force Barrera to retire by beating his ass for good.

                  You should make another thread about how Pacquiao could beat three heavyweights at the same time.

                      Apparently, some people here think so. I doubt Cotto would feel anything.
