Pac should of course get credit. Just with it was a proper 147 Welter limit

I agree he is already SOMETHING SPECIAL, any man who starts at 106lbs and is still dominating ATG fighters at 147lbs regardless of what condition they are in or what excuses you can make for them, is very special. |

Punch Power: 533 | | Re: If Pac wins... Maybe I should rephrase, I mean that PAc is already an A;; Time great goes without saying but I mean if he beats Cotto and then turns around and does Mayweather Im thinking like greatest of all time or something closer to that calibut of great.
In regards to Cotto, I really did just see him not so much cut up, which he did look like to me, but his arms looked huge for a guy his size, it looked like he was packing alot of lean muscle.
I mean as unbiased as you possibly can be, what if Pac beats thse two and where would he be in relation to Ali, Louis and Marciano etc? |

7 world titles in different weight category would be very difficult to replicate and it's something that may not happen again in the near future or even in our lifetime.

May be too much for Pac this time around unkless he truly is something that special | Not so sure if Cotto looks in the best shape of his life. Look at his cheekbones, jaw, forearm, etc. Unless things change in these next days. I really hope so.

Maybe TOP 20 immediately!! Pundits are HARD on active fighters.

Very true about active fighters. And that may be putting it lightly.

Punch Power: 1319 | | Re: If Pac wins... +398 What do you think they will both weigh fight night??
I was going to start a thread to ask this, but this thread has gone down the track of condition of Pac/Cotto...
I think this fight is going to show a lot about Pac and his future, and how he'll go down in the "All Time" rankings... He is already a freak of athleticism to come from the size he has and been able to be as dynamic and formidable as he has at every single weight..
If he wins this fight, then we can look on to his potential for what is possible past Cotto.. You have to think, Cotto is in comparison with champions like Shane Mosley and Margarito and to an extent Mayweather who are guys deadly at 147 pounds.. For a Pac to beat a Cotto is pushing everything to a whole new level...
At some point people would have struggled to see Pac past 135 or that being his limit.. But if you took a Morales the champion, and taken him right up through to 147 and taken out one of the most formidable fighters there, it just shows how powerful of a legacy is being carved out here..
If he loses, then the manner in which he loses will show his potential to go on at 140/147 against other opponents and possible make another challenge to be an undisputed belt holder at those weights...
Of all Pac's career, you would say this fight right now is the defining moment... Although some would have said that of Hatton, or maybe Oscar.... But after how those fights turned out, the significance of this moment is that Cotto is a prime champion right now, and a win of Cotto for anyone is 100% legitimate... Nothing can be taking away from someone who topples him..
FUCKING ONLY 6 DAYS AWAY!!!!
