all except jmm had a perfect gameplan for pac, its only when they are in the ring that they realize that its not easy to manhandle pac. hatton bullied him for a while until pac let hatton taste his own medicine. diaz believed that he can handle pacs speed and we all know what he said after the fight.

** i only mentioned pac cause you guys are takking about him

cotto cant break clotteys defense, most of cottos punches landed on clotteys arms. why? and how can you break that guard?
Morales seemed to have the perfect gameplan when he beat Manny, and are you seriously trying to compare Miguel Cotto to David Diaz?

Cotto adapted to Clottey's defense while he was on the ropes and he would loop his hooks around Clottey's gloves and whack him on the side of the head, or he would shoot them straight down the pipe between the gloves, he didn't land everything but he hit Clottey plenty, and about the whacking Clottey's gloves, Cotto already had fractured another fighter's arm by doing the same exact thing, so why not do it on Clottey

back to the Pac thing, Hatton had Manny on the ropes, and Cotto looks like fucking Mayweather when you compare him to Hatton in terms of movement, defense, and overall boxing ability, he uses his jab, doesn't plod foward with his hands up, and he was fighting a guy who would make Manny look like Tiny Tim, so seriously if the fight against Cotto happens, anyone who thinks he's gonna blow him out like he did Hatton, is set for a rude awakening
Hatton is a lot faster than Cotto though, which is why he was able to (very briefly) pin Pac against the ropes. Does Cotto have the foot and hand speed to do the same thing, especially considering the figh will probably be at 143-145 (which is total bullshit IMO)?
