Manny might fight Cotto before the winner of July 18th!

[TitoFan]

It's a possibility but it's not the fight for PAC that I wanted most... Tho I like PAC's chances against Cotto...

Some notes on this PAC-Cotto fight:
- Cotto's weaknesses is PAC's strength (stamina (worries me also), southpaw (the Cotto that got wobbled against Corley is light-years behind the Cotto of today), get hit a lot (see "southpaw"))
- catch weight of 144 lbs.(I'd have some misgivings about that also. 147 is Cotto's weight.)
- even if Cotto get past Clottey, I think Cotto will be softened enough by Clottey...
- PAC's speed is still the key (it might bother Cotto somewhat... but Cotto has fought fast fighters before (Judah, Mosley)
- PAC can brag to PBF that he's fighting the boxer that PBF avoided...

Having said that, I still think this fight won't happen since I think Clottey will upset Cotto...
. (and obviously, we disagree here, as well)

I agree with some... disagree with others. See above.

I agree to disagree without thinking...

We'll leave it as it is until this fight get signed...

way to throw Clottey under the bus...

I think Clottey could beat Cotto but he doesnt exist in this thread?

If he beats Cotto then Mayweather Pacquiao next is a guarantee because there's a lot of risk but little reward in a Clottey vs Pacquiao fight

Same here... If Clottey wins, there will be no PAC vs. Clottey fight...

Clottey is just way too big for PAC aside from the little reward...

He won't get past Cotto come down off the hype wagon

LOL, Clotty has no chance! I think it would be a Very entertaining fight and I would love to watch, then again not want to watch it. Cotto and Pacquiao are my two favorite fighters right now and I'd hate to see two nice guys beat each other up! I take nothing away from Cotto, he's awsome but I say Manny edges him out, but a very tough fight for both! I want to see either of these guys take on Mayweather so we can go back to the good guy vs. bad guy scenario!
