2.) if pac completely destroys cotto within 3 - 6 rounds, people will say cotto was damaged goods after the margarito loss and close clottey decision.



besides those i don't see how this fight will not be entertaining and therefore a hell of a fight..

i will say this though, it took margarito (with loaded gloves) 10 or so rounds to knock cotto out.. if pac does it in less it will be impressive.
Manny potshotted and ran from OScar, and he was still very effective offensively, I don't think Manny going backwards is necessarily a good thing for Cotto because Manny would be a lot better off staying out of Cotto's range than he would be trying to match Cotto on the inside, if he stays away Cotto won't land much, but if he tries to fight Cotto at range, an accurate guy with fast hands like Cotto will hit him at will. Miguel has pin point accuracy, and more than enough power to stop Manny if Manny fights the wrong fight, but PAcquiao hasn't been doign that lately, if Manny fights like he did against Hatton and Oscar, I just can't see Cotto catching him.
