cotto isnt a knockout puncher, pacquiao is

Cotto-hatton would go 12
I don't think either is a knockout puncher, they are both types who win with an accumulation of damage. Hatton showed the worst kinds of vulnerabilites I have seen in a megafight and it showed horribly. Cotto hits harder than Manny Pac.
I agree if you put a pressure pad in front of both men Cotto would hit harder than Pac, but Pac times his counters very well (especially since he has started fighting bigger, heavier and slower fighters) and I think that was where he got the early KO vs Hatton. I see Cotto beating Hatton don't get me wrong but I think it would go further than the Pac fight and i'd probably go for late KO or UD mayself.
