When did Cotto ever make excuses? If he loses, I don't expect him to make any either.
You obviously don't know anything about Cotto for you to say that he knows that he can't win, I guarantee you, that thought isn't even crossing his mind.
And as I have already stated, this is nothing new, I have read plenty of times over the last few years that he was not going to be fighting much longer. He does not want to fight past 32 at the latest.

I even put in an edit for just this scenario.
LOL!
Well I got it before you edited it. ;)
Re: Cotto looking ahead...???
Hmm I wonder what is really bugging his mind....He was lucky vs Josh Clottey ...Running into Pac-man just for the Cash..simply looks mind bothering to me..
Pac-man has destroyed dynasties. I simply hope he can be able to with stand sequels maybe that is his plan of retiring after a couple of sequels with Pac-man

I would've said he was very unlucky against Clottey seeing as the cut affected him so badly.

There is no doubt in my mind that Cotto is not even thinking about that right now. I am not wondering at all if Cotto will show up for the fight with Manny. He will. While Manny is singing, making movies, videos, public apperances, etc. Cotto is already working out. Cotto will show up prepared. Will Manny be prepared?

Exactly Diane. Plus, Cotto did not even bring this up during the interview and people are acting as if he is constantly/currently thinking about this. He was asked about it and said what he has always said, which is that he will not have a long career. To me, this means that he is going after all the megafights and make as much money as possible within a two year period before he retires. If I were Manny, I would stop the world tour and get to the gym. Manny's overconfidence is going to haunt him.
