    That was also kind of a soft stoppage, it was already the 12th and the ref just stopped it. Cotto had taken a beating and had 0 shot so I can feel the stoppage in that regard.


    Cotto could have saw the end of that fight though, Manny might have stopped him in round 12 but I don't think that was a foregone conclusion when the fight got stopped.

      If you're a pac fan looking for some credit towards a fight that was a disgrace. Or as Bob described it, just for entertainment and not about the best fighting the best.

      At least you admit it was a **** fight and that Pac was not fighting the best, like vs Clottey and Mosley.

            Clottey just covered up. Margarito fight should have been a stoppage. It ended his career basically because it wasn't stopped. Mosley ran. Bradley ran. And obviously him and JMM are made for each other.

              Bradley has a durable chin and good recovery, jmm never beend knocked out has a good recovery, and he packed on tons of muscle on his traps and neck area and cut body fat with the help of Memo.

                  Curious, why was Margarito vs Manny a disgrace? Same with Clottey fight? While I wouldn't call it a disgrace, I can see one saying it was pointless fighting Mosley as he was past it going into the Floyd fight as well.

                    Small guys fall hard from age 30. Cotto busted Pac up hard.

                      Why Pacquiao has always been muscular and shredded, JMM has never been that way until a late age when testosterone levels drop.
