I think his trainer would have set a different game plan for Pacquiao so no one really knows...
if Cotto fought Pac the way he did floyd.....

nuff said-
the power difference between pac's bombs and floyds relative powder puff sissy slaps if the reason cotto looked a million dollars against floyd and a mug against manny
if anything i'd say floyd caught him flush 2x as much as manny- just didnt have that raw power
floyd never had power above 135- at 154 his punches hurt less than the average 154 jab
dont get me wrong- hs punches are effective- they knock you off balance- they force land clean and "punches in bunches" add up
but they are never a threat- cotto never looked worried when floyd hit him
floyd was bleeding all night
i think manny would beat cotto at 154 no problemComment

no one can be stationary against pac until hes thoroughly confused. the only person that would be about to do it is floydComment

No, because PAC doesn't fight like Floyd. With Floyd cotto had time to pick his shots since Floyd is not really an aggressive or pressure fighter like PAC and look as soon as Floyd turn it up and starts attacking cotto goes back to his usual retreat mode. It won't help him win but maybe substain less damage.Comment

i think the fight just showed why floyd ducked prime cotto
i think peak cotto would have castillo'd floyd
you look at floyd and he's avoided anyone that could do that untill they were shot
even mosley almost had him out in round 2- great balance from floyd but old man moseley really couldnt press home a huge advantage
i nevr doubted or questioned floyds skills- just his ability to use them against the best possible oppositionComment

The 154 Cotto powers through Pac and Pac would run like in the Margo fight and try and box and steal the fight , Pac would not fight aggressive he would box and possibly still win a UD , Margo had strength but was slow and no snap so he couldnt catch him anyway , Cotto was still fast at 154 with so much more power strength and resistance at 154 , waaaaaaay different than 145 .
It would be a totally different fight and Pac ducked it for that reason !Comment

Pac would likely be in or lose that fight , cotto fought from the inside with Floyd which is his strength and did the opposite with PacquiaoComment

he got on the inside with floyd because floyd's pitty patty slaps didnt bother him
even at 154 hes not going to walk through pacman fire
just not going to happen
with cotto once he gets hit he starts his funny dance around the ring throwing random jabs untill he feels betterComment
