Majority fans and analysts don't know S**T about boxing!!!

I think Cotto will savage Pac and stop him in the mid rounds

More I think about it the more I see it the same way. For long couldn't decide and thought it could go convincingly either way. Cotto has the defence and toughness to withstand Pac who'll struggle to cope with Cotto's strength and power. Some fans got carried away when Ricky KO'd castillo, suddenly he could do the same with a prime Weler with the best D in the buis, I think people will be in for a similar rude awakening on Sat night, though I'm hoping for a competitive showing.

It's even more moronic to claim Pac can't KO Cotto early.

You're gonna look like a proper mug should this happen. Pac has a serious speed advantage, he hits hard, Cotto doesn't have a great chin.

Good luck.

when has Cotto's chin looked weak at 147 lbs? it took Margarito 11 rounds to stop him and that was most likely with cinder blocks on his hands, and when has he been hurt by a smaller guy at 147?

This fight is at 145 not 147.

But anyway.. Pac punches more explosive than Margarito. Maybe not with the strength but certainly with the element of shock.

Cotto was bothered by Zab, Mosley and Clottey. He was knocked drunk against Corley and Torres.

With that amount of evidence, it would be foolish to say Pac CAN NOT knock-out Cotto. That's all

[OumaFan]

I agree just look at the prediction contest, I'm in the know, some people, not so much.

[Master]

This fight is exciting because opinion is so divided. Cannot wait for this fight!

The weigh-in is at 145. The actual fight is something else.

[OumaFan]

They're going to gain weight after the weigh in?

We also have to remember Corley and Torres was at 140. I think Cotto is getting underestimated in this fight big time, hey I got 2 to 1 odds cant beat that.

I do agree with you here Fenster.

One thing we should all know for certain now is that you never know what's going to happen in boxing.

Yes I think Cotto will be too strong for Manny. Yes I can't see how a guy who beat Shane Mosely, destroyed Quinatana and beat up Zab Judah, and got a win over Joshua Clottey, can be beat up and knocked out by a former flyweight.

BUT I thought Manny would lose to Oscar, I thought him and Hatton was for certain a 12 round fight and I expected the size and strength of David Diaz to cause him problems.

I think Cotto's chances have been underestimated by the fans and media alike, but this is a fight that I just don't know for sure how it's going to go.

My head says Cotto wins in the late rounds, but I've bet against Manny a ton of times before and he always suprises.

It's probably wisest not to say too much before the buildup to this fight as a lot of people will end up with egg on their faces methinks.

where's the fun sitting on the fence? anything can happen in boxing, but I'm going for Cotto to take over and maul Pac in the mid rounds.

I don't think it's fans and people not knowing shit....i'ts more that everyone is entitled to thier own opinion and people see fights different ways. That's the thing about boxing you can think you know all you want then boom out of the blue pac beats oscar, buster beats tyson so on and so forth. After every fight half the people picking are wrong right off the bat but i wouldn't say thier stupid. This is a sport of inches, turn your head the wrong way, mis-anticipate and al that training and so called "know" can go right out the window. Some pick pac, others cotto. There are arguments to be made for both sides. Myself i think if cotto tries to go in there and so called "beat up the little guy" he'll loose. If he goes in there and boxes and uses his advantages smartly he'll win. Hey if anyone i don't know shit, i very rarely pick any sport right.

I agree Pac is fast, also he hits while bodily on the move and goes out on weird angles and covers his path with a cross.

He can catch other more routine style fighters cold or even worse on a turn trying to follow him (the target.)

Thats why someone intent on removing him wont be able to . I think it wil take a text book skill of control and making him pay for his mistakes to be able to beat him. Cottos needsto be in the zone from before the fight right through it,with no preconcieved ideas about how it will go.

But you never know if Cotto fights to the letter and holds control over his own centre line and keeps Pac where he wants him ,comes out from behind the jab and does it when he earns it, in controlled spurts (Then Pac will pay and may feel it harder than he has ever done before.

Ii live in hope. Go Cotto.

But I wont be so dissaointed if Pac wins hes a great Champ great for the sport anyway.

Just God help us with his not so humble fans telling us which way the wind blows all based on one fighter and how they are the prediction kings of all time.

(I predict my Rolls Royce will outlast your Ford)

[Spicoli]

Well I guess I plead utter dumbfukkery about this boxing thingy then.Damn,all those wasted years ugh...I have been back and forth on this one and do believe,Now,that Cotto will upend the Pacquiao train Sat night.On the other end I can absolutely envision a scenario where Manny tenderizes Cottos face into a mess,early or late.A stoppage does not have to translate into an physical dominance,having to be a stronger puncher and keeping an opponent on the canvas for it to be realized.Back to the result though....I think Pac walks into some stiff shots as it goes rounds like he has not tasted over the last few years.Think a bloody Cotto stops him in 10.

but he could take all the mosley could throw at him... the problem is although cotto can be stunned he recovers very quickly ... he wont still be wobbling round on bambi legs a minute later like hatton was in the first round


pac couldnt put a dent in DLH who was a sitting target, hatton had been hurt by a non - puncher in lazcano before this fight
