Comments Thread For: Roach Prefers Miguel Cotto Rematch For Manny Pacquiao

[Bushbaby]

Sad to see that there are some stragglers still trying desperately to defend Pacman, lol!! Using the "Pacman is tiny", excuse. Pacman is soo small but he wouldn't fight even Marquez under welterweight & he won't fight Miguel at 154. So even if he's fighting a smaller fighter, he wants weight advantages, pfft!!

Cotto is the taller man.

Where does power come from son?

You ever compare Cottos legs to Pacs?

Everyone thinks Pac is the smaller man... look at that mans Legs.. they're Tyson-esque tree trunks... and he flattened the man at 140lbs with a single punch.

It's not even just his legs, his forearms too. They're the size of melons. I had a discussion with my father about the same jazz.

How many times did Floyd fight at JR MW before fighting a SOLID, top 3 JR MW in Oscar?

Who gives a ****... how many times did Roy fight at 168, before fighting the best in the division?

That's what fighters DO.



He was 106lbs when he was 16 years old... the only reason he gets to add it to his resume is because he happened to turn pro before most fighters would because he lived in a 3rd world country and needed to make a living... otherwise, what he did was normal, Floyd was the same weight at the same age, just stayed in the Ams.

Yep. Same with Cotto. In the early stages of his amateur career he was a light flyweight. People make way too many excuses for Lord Pacquiao. How can fanboys defend that behavior?

[WESS]

150lbs?

Pacquiao is a joke at this point.

I said this years ago...

Where does Pacquiao go now. Cotto was his easiest option IMO both Bradley and JMM have a great chance of beating him, if he loses he's finished.

[AllEyesOpen]

Bad Choice For Pac in my honest opinion. Pacquiao should have jumped at the shot for a Mayweather fight in Dec cause at this point every fight he has is making that fight less interesting, & IMHO Cotto in great condition is a force to be reckoned with. If Pac doesn't look fantastic at this point this could be a lose/lose regardless of the outcome, even more so if it goes the distance.

[AntonTheMeh]

imo they have no other place to go but a mayweather fight. he and marquez will always battle each other to a stalemate. as much as i think he beat bradley, bradley is awkward as **** and awkward enough to win again, which would totally **** up any chance at a mayweather fight.

one more loss to bradley, and the appeal of a pac may fight is as good as gone. no where to go but money.

[jcpryor]

Looks like its Mayweather or bust now. Marquez can beat Pac and Bradley doesn't bring in numbers. I don't think either fight elevates his negotiating power. Although I don't think Arum wants the Mayweather fight to begin with.

Hey bro, you better back off buddy. I & I alone lay claim to calling out Pacman's bull$h!t. Here's why:

You are a Floyd fan & wall always aligned with him because of it. I was actually a Pacman fan that has never really liked Floyd. But from the moment that Pacman/Margarito was announced, I denounced Pacman & as a fan with no affiliations to either my judgment was not clouded by bias & therefore far purer than yours.

This would be beyond a joke.

exactly! why cotto?... what're they thinking? and then at a catchweight? Hella ******!
