    I think his trainer would have set a different game plan for Pacquiao so no one really knows...

      pacman floored mosley

      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 problem

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

            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.

              Diaz would come up with a different game plan, but high volume iron chinned fighters are Cotto's kryptonite.

                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 opposition

                  It would be a totally different fight and Pac ducked it for that reason !
                  You floyd groupies have the most interesting rationalizations.:*******:

                    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 Pacquiao

                      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 better
