I think Cotto will win.
I think he is simply too big and strong for Pacquiao.
It's a pick 'em really but I favour Cotto. Cotto is bigger, stronger, has a better all round game and more versatility than each of Pac's recent opponents (DLH, Diaz, Hatton) and I can see him laying his gloves on Manny and for Manny to not feel so pretty afterwards. Cotto might well stop him.
Pac is one of those little buggers that keeps on denying what should be the overarching rules of things, but hopefully it comes to an end here.
IMO , Cotto by KO or TKO , no way this will going to distance , Cottos look in very good shapes as never been in his career , too strong and i dont have any doubt that he will comes more faster than before to this fight , Cottos Jab will be a poison for Pacman , is odds to hear what would happen if Cotto engage with Pacman ;D , if Pacman do that thing for sure this fight will end early , remember Cotto win by KO or TKO in convincing way..........:cool:
Cotto has shown he can deal with speed in a few of his previous fights, Mosely comes to mind...
I'll take Cotto on the cards in what should be a UD but because it's Manny will be a split decision in favor of Cotto.
If the fight goes the distance, Pacquiao has the advantage, Faster movement, volume of punches and greater stamina. Mosley is not that fast and lacks the stamina.Quote:

I'm going with a Pac decision though!
Put ODLH or Hatton againsed Cotto at 147
Now think a little while..............
What are you thinking?
That's how i see it, give or take a roundQuote:

As of late I have been leaning toward Cotto.....The guy has shown a solid chin as of late and I dont think Manny will be able to hurt him....On the flip side I think Cotto's shots will wear Manny down a bit....
Cotto by narrow decision.....
Cotto by TKO in 10. He should be able to use his size and strength to bully Manny and scrape him with power shots. This implies that Cotto has to take the fight to manny though. If I see Cotto running and dancing around like he did with Clottey I'm gonna break my TV.
Manny Pacquiao TKO 8th round.
I should have inserted "anymore". No I'm not kidding, At 39, he's lost some of that speed and stamina you can really see against Margarito.Quote:
