If Cotto makes Manny FIGHT then I'm not so certain Pacquiao is going to enjoy that fight because Cotto does damage

cotto can and will land big

but the problem is he`ll be taking shots in return at double the volume and probably almost as powerful.

Against clottey from 4-9 he just seemed to go into a complete lull and was taking shots for fun. Against a manny pacquiao that will get you knocked out as the guy will be non stop for 12rounds!!
plz tell me you didn't just compare Cotto to Hatton, there is no similarities in between the two, Hatton is a one dimensional brawler who just moves forward and well always goes into the fight with one gameplan, Cotto is superior in ever aspect, a better technician, has better timing, a natural counter puncher (watch his earlier fights, and certain rounds as of late), he doesn't plod forward and expect you to crumble like Hatton did, on top of that he's far bigger and stronger than Hatton, Cotto will time Pacquiao, back him up to the ropes, and IMO stop Pacquiao before the 8th
