Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: Cotto is Going To Beat Canelo By Decision

[BrometheusBob.]

Oh snap Pacquiao actually made a call about a fight

I mean they train in the same gym and all but still surprising to see him not dodge the question

[SplitSecond]

This the first time Pacuqiao made a concrete prediction, doesn't he usually stay neutral and say things like so and so can win or give a difficult fight?

Never recalled him every clearly backing some and predicting an outcome for them like this.

Most I ever heard was I support so and so, but no prediction.

He also picked Mosley vs Floyd. But I'm sure he was expecting the Mosley that showed up vs Margarito like everyone else was, not the shot/overtrained/roidless Mosley that showed up.

The closer the fight gets and the more i think about it, Cottos chances improve. Look at their weaknesses, Cotto has had trouble with pressure in the past, Canelo has had trouble with movement....so, how do we think thatll play out? Then u have the Roach factor which paired with Cotto is a thing of beauty...the biggest factor for me is Canelo being an underrated counter puncher. Canelo all day.

Why even post "opinions" of stablemates? There's no chance in hell they will publicly say if they think a stablemate will lose. That would be like a black man admitting Fraud Pedcheater Jr lost to Manny Pacquiao and used steroids his whole career. Aint hapnin yo.

I don't think Manny would have said Canelo even if he thought Canelo will win. Of course he's gonna pick his fellow wild-card fighter

Ok we're a month away from the fight. If Pacquiao saw this in a dream then I'm putting my money on Cotto instead now. I mean, he was right when he knew Floyd was gonna beat him

I don't think Pac would pick against his buddy Cotto, but I agree with him. Cotto is a better boxer than most people give him credit for, mostly because of the ducks ("better for my family") and catch-weights.

Shocking Pacquioa would make this prediction!!! What do you expect him to say , he's trained by Roach

[Da Boxer]

Pac is mistaken....King Cotto by KO/TKO under 10 rounds!

Cotto too smart for Canelo. Maybe Canelo can muscle his way to a KO, but I'm going with Cotto. He has a very intelligent skillset that is often overlooked.
