But I'm sure neither guy is an easy night for PBF, who is a miniature welterweight.
    PBF is a minature welterweight? Is that consensus? He is 30 (?) and has fought at welterweight for the last four years and his height and reach are definitely comparable to most top welterweights out there other than Pwill. Cotto is shorter and has less reach and Shane is the same height and has around the same reach. Berto same.

    There is a size advantage. It isn't overstated. In the same way Cotto possesses a size advantage over Pacquiao, which is one of the things that makes that fight interesting.

    Pac and JMM are too little for PBF; PBF should be favored against either fighter. I agree neither fight is a gimme for PBF, but he should be favored.

    Here is Eddie Mustapha Muhammad (Chad Dawson's Trainer) on the size disparity between PBF and Pacman:
    prediction.

    FLOYD VS. MANNY: “Without a doubt, that fight will happen. Pacman’s speed is too much for Miguel Cotto. He can outpoint Cotto just on speed. You can’t beat Manny throwing one jab at a time because he comes right over the top on you. It would take the Mayweather style to beat Manny. Floyd is a full fledged welterweight, he’s just too big for Manny. He will beat Pacquiao." - From the Examiner
