Pacquiao initially installed as the 2 to 1 favorite against Cotto

[Kev]

I'm suprised at how much Cotto has been written off. Nobody has ever had an easy time with him and Manny is hardly Mr invincible.

A lot of people thought he lost to J M Marquez only 4 fights ago and that was at super featherweight.

I may put some money on Cotto for this one, he's FAR too good a fighter to be written off against a man effectively moving up three weight classes 18 months ago.

I am not writing Cotto off, just said that speed will be the factor for cotto and Cottos body punching will be the factor for Manny...

To write Cotto off would be stupid..why because of his loss to Margarito? A close bout with Clottey.....

Skipping the Margarito loss to avoid obsessive hand wrap comments...a tough Bout with Clottey means nothing...Who doesnt have a tough time with Clottey?

If Cotto can get some good body shots in he might have a chance of landing a few straight rights, which he throws very well. Then switch back downstairs once Manny tries to block them. I think Cotto will win this fight by KO.

I've been about 60% on with my predictions. That's why I don't gamble. But I still feel that Cotto will win by KO too. I think that Cotto has already fought the tougher fight with Clottey.
