How should Cotto beat Pacquiao??
he does not have the counterpunching skills of Marquez...
he does not have the handspeed or footspeed of Marquez or Mayweather...
he does not have an A-level defense...
he is not a big puncher (he could never hurt Margarito, while Pac hurt him several times and rearranged his face)
How should it work??? His new trainer cannot give him the speed he needs to counter Pacquiao, it is not going happen... you cannot learn speed at Cotto's age and Cotto really is not a natural counter-puncher like Marquez or Mayweather. The weight here really does not play a big role, Cotto is not much bigger than Pacquiao, he is a really small LMW. James Kirkland and Canelo are significantly bigger than Cotto.
