    I think Cotto is naturally left handed though, right?
    Yea cotto and Oscar are both naturally left handed

        Manny isn't gonna knock Floyd out

        Floyd has a great chin and great defence

        So why would your gameplan be to knock him out

        What is Marquez on about?

        He's not gonna hit Floyd clean as often as any opponent he's ever faced in a world title fight

        So he's gotta win on activity. Hit the body and arms like Castillo did and hope you get a decision.
        Vegas judges notoriously favour the agressive come forward fighter who throws more punches

        E.g. Taylor vs Hopkins

          I've heard nobody point out that this fight is actually occurring at the best time, when both guys have acquired PhD status, Pacquiao via the Marquez sleeper. This guy, who calls himself Fight Doctor explains:

            Floyd needs to taste the speed and power early

            You can't let him build confidence early

              - southpaw (Corley, Judah)
              - fast (Judah)
              - awkward (maidana)
              - active (maidana, Castillo)
              - variety of punching ( Castillo)

              Manny has all of the above
              How did Corley cause Floyd problems?

              The problem with that fight is that people watch 1 gif instead of 12 rounds. That fight wasn't remotely competitive.

                Manny has the legs and the power. Floyd is in for a surprise.

                  A Pacquiao win by robbery from incompetent judges would be hilarious.

                    In and out movement

                    High pace

                    Win early rounds

                    This is key for pac

                    When you want breaks , keep feinting

                      Floods gonna control the pace just like he does every fight. When you talk about the fight you act like pac will have success with everything he tries lol
