Thread: pac vs. pbf....thinking ahead

I would like to think that if Pacquiao survives the first two rounds vs. Cotto, Pacquiao will win the fight.....because in this two rounds, I expect the two fighters to unleash their best punches against each other. Cotto will try to corner Pacquiao then throw his vaunted lefts. And I am sure PACQUIAO will be hit solidly.

Pacquiao will throw bomb combis all the way. I expect Cotto to withstand MANNY'S PUNCHES IN THE FIRST TWO ROUNDS. After this, MANNY'S SPEED AND FOOTWORK will cruise him to victory by TKO, KO or decision.

Should Pacquiao survive the first 2 rounds vs. Cotto, I have reason to think ahead for a PAC VS. PBF DREAM MATCH.

If you look at his track record Cotto isn't one to stop opponents early, he doesn't have that kind of power, his is more of a pummeling Marcianoesque pummel you down slowly type power. If anyone gets stopped early it would be Cotto because the longer this fight goes on the better Cotto will adjust to the rhythm of Manny.

I still think Manny will win because his feet are too damn fast, but I also think that Cotto is a very live underdog, and if he can fight Manny like he could Judah and MOsley then Manny won't win.

If Pac gets past Cotto for some reason I don't think PBF is next. I don't think PBF is going Pac next either. No real reason, I just see it not happening next. I don't want to believe that because boxing will stop the world for one night with a PBF/Pac fight.

Once cotto gets hit with a PACQUIAO combi in the first round,i am sure his head will get hot and go for the kill.

I have enough reason to believe that PAC VS. PBF will happen after or in case PACQUIAO wins vs. COTTO.FYI it is now being discuss in Vegas,money sharing is the only hindrance at present.Should an agreement of a 50/50 split will be put in paper,then the fight will happen.Even a 45/55 split will make the fight go.Of course PBF will get 55.

Las Vegas is anticipating a rousing victory for PACQUIAO against Cotto.And fittingly after the fans will demand for a PAC VS. PBF bout.....IMO

it'll be Pacquiao corner, stamina and speed vs Cotto power, left hook and punch resistance, if Margacheato barely knocked him out at the end of the fight with plaster in his gloves (well, we can strongly assume though cannot absolutely prove it), I don't PAcman can knock him out neither but can perhaps slow him down progressively with some barrages of punches. On the other hand, if Cotto connect a couple of time to the body with the left hook, it can be an early evening.

Manny Pacquiao is a human buzz saw while Cotto is a titanium axe
Cotto starts slow but he is working on throwing more punches. All his fights have been measured for distance and he avarages about 60 punches per round.

Against Manny, Cotto will be going for more out put and is looking for 80 punched per round. I am not sure if he can keep that pace up or not? Not sure if he over trained but Cotto is not known for over training anyway. If you compare the punch stats to Cotto/Mosley and PAC/JMM, you might get a better idea of who will be doing what. Cotto is not that bad in this dept and he is going to increase what he does.

Careful how you pick this fight boys.

The Illusion is almost over.

Cotto wins it.

I don't want to see either fighter get knocked out but I can see Cotto stopping Manny in 9



I know people will call me crazy etc, just like they did when I said Manny would stop hatton in 5.

People are putting the cart before the horse and are already reserving yankee stadium for PBF vs PAC.

Cotto said, I don't care what these fools do. After I beat Manny they can fight on Mars for all I care.


lol

all you have to think about is that Pacquiao's gonna take a beating for 5 rounds then crumble, Cotto's best asset is that he keeps his cool, and he breaks you down round by round, if anyone goes crazy going for the kill in the first 2 it'll be Manny Pacquiao

I dont really see Cotto keeping his cool when he tastes the 4 to 5 combi punches from PACQUIAO.He will taste these combis maybe twice or more times in the first round cos Freddie really is out to get Cotto lose his cool so he couldnt think and get an advantage psychologically in the fight.Freddie is aiming for Cotto to be out balanced the whole fight.That is their strategy to win.And once Cotto loses his cool;its game over.

btw I see Manny as the coolest pug in boxing.Very clean and sportsmanlike fighter.

Precisely,i want to see PACQUIAO,survive the first two rounds....and perhaps win the fight.

I recognize the chance for MANNY losing the fight for two reasons.First he trained only for about 60 days.Second are the numerous distractions in his training.HBO 24/7 showed these defects in Manny's training.But being a Pacquiao believer,much more with FREDDIE in his corner,i still have faith MANNY will pull thru at the end of this fight.

Good luck, I am not especially a huge fan from both fighters, I only want a great fight no matter who wins in the end.

ummm Pacquiao's not the hardest puncher that Cotto has faced, hell he was whacked with bricks for 11 rounds, and he's dealt with blinding speed against Mosley and Judah, and well umm Pacquiao usually doesn't keep his cool in the ring, he gets whacked hard and he goes crazy, he also has had the habit of underestimating opponents in the past, Larios is the perfect example

You think Cotto loses if Pac gets past 2 rounds, hardly 50/50 is it?
