What Cotto must do (in order) to get a rematch with pacquaio

[CHOWWOKKA]

What you really mean is that he must look like hot garbage like Clottey, Mosley & Margarito instead of this 3 ko streak he put together right? But seriously people payed for Pacman-Clottey, nuff said.

Dont forget Cotto has to agree to a catchwieght of 145.

Tony would never quit..i really believe he would rather die than quit.

A most beautiful thing and a wonderful gift to boxing.



MARGAREEEEEETOHHHH!!!!!

If Marg's eye is never the same I agree but if not then a third is a valid fight. Gotta see what the future brings.

I think that if Tony fights anybody good, he runs a serious risk to permanent blindness. Plus, who would license him, even in the future. Any commission would be taking a big risk on him.

An already nervous nysac didn't want to be responsible for licensing a guy with a known bad eye injury. They covered Tony's and their own asses.

That eye will never fully heal. i think one clean, hard left hook could damage it permanently. For his own good, i don't think he should fight anymore. He should just retire and live in Mexico where his $$ will last long. He proved he's a warrior.

I'm not vindictive as i used to be...lol. i give Tony credit for his still good chin, fearlessness, (more like careless stubbornness). If a past prime Cotto with a great game plan did that to him, a better boxer would do worse.

He doesn't have to do anything I'm sure it'll be made next year.

Edit: actually all he has to do is stick with Top Rank

threaten to leave top rank

Cotto must lose badly and accept a catchweight to get manny..........Now that's a ***** answer as a fan he cant get pac again unless he go to 147 or for real accept a catchweight. If manny fight him without catchweight much props to pac.

I hope he leaves top rank. He's opened the door to a lot of options.

Beat Margarito properly. The dude virtually outclassed him and beat him every round. If that's not a proper beat down, not sure what is. Miguel really doesn't need to do anything to get the rematch. He's a huge money maker and is coming off a pretty good performance versus a rival that "beat" him. This victory pretty much erased his first defeat.

IMO, he deserves the shot, not only for the first two reasons(money and his last victory)but he showed effective boxing. If people recall Miguel in the first two rounds was beating pac up by effectively boxing. It wasn't until he got caught that the fight completely changed 180. Manny hasn't looked great and Cotto executed the gameplan against Marg that he would want to against Manny. Lets get it on!

Manny agreed with Ariza that straying from his more intensive training routine, his performance has suffered. Pac has agreed to go back to Ariza's more difficult, but more productive traing methods. Manny never complained of leg cramps and looked much better following Ariza's advice.

I expect Pac to perform MUCH better next time he fights.
