Your certainly not wrong about the general public and all, but the more I think about this fight the more I can't help but understand why Manny is a big favourite to win. It is a shame that Cotto is being undersold in that way, and that obviously a lot of the people covering this fight even haven't really done their homework on him... But I'm not certain the expected outcome should be all that much different even if they had. I do hope I'm wrong as I want to see a great fight tonight and I love upsets in general, it's just people seem to have the same doubts about Pac in this fight as they did his last two. And sure, Cotto is no Ricky Hatton.. But maybe no moreso than Hatton was no old Oscar, or DLH was no useless David Diaz etc. Fact is they were both still excellent fighters, Pacquiao is just a phenomenal fighter. I think he's a league above Cotto as well at this point.
