    Here's what I see, Cotto is overconfident. It's in his words. He may have started training for this fight early but that's basically because of the $1 million per pound penalty. So basically he started early to make sure he comes in at the weight. Not because he is preparing to face Pacquiao. He repeats the same line that Hatton made and that he is too big for Pacquiao. "He's never faced a true natural welterweight".

    Pac wins this one.

    I'm voting Cotto ( ya relax Fenster I'll go hit the button in a minute ), but who knows. How many times have we been wrong about Pac before?

    He's a bit of a freak of nature, doing what's he's done already, so I ain't putting anything past him, in spite of conflicts or what have ya.

    Been a Cotto fan for a while. Bit off topic, but I'd like to give Margarito a kick in the nuts with a plaster boot! (It would obv serve no good hitting him in his dumb rock-filled head)

    There's no $1 million per pound penalty for this fight, that was only with Oscar. He started camp early, so he can take the weight off safely, which is the smart thing to do.

    Overconfident? Cotto says the same thing for every fight. "Fights are won in training camp". "We will be prepared for anything he brings", etc, etc...

    The only new stuff is about Manny not facing a true welterweight, which is true.

    I'm going with Bob Arum's matchmaker on this one. Arum wants a fight where Manny wins and his matchamker (forget the name right now) has a proven history of getting it right, knows the two fighters and where they are in terms of current ability etc., and he advised Arum to make the fight. Top Rank are expecting a Manny win, I'm going with them.
