Well, I called it. But credit to Cotto.

Miguel Cotto is all heart, my only hope is that he can recover and that he learned something from this fight "You can't walk through everyone". Cotto is fearless and it hurts him sometimes, but it has also helped him, like in the Torres fight.

Manny Pacquiao is world class and I think titles in 7 different weight classes is one of the most impressive feats in boxing history. I am not sure if the 145 weight limit had any affect mental or physical on Cotto, but Pacquiao put on a hell of a show and just like Cotto had no excuses, I make no excuses for Pacquiao, that was very impressive considering the only other guy to beat Cotto probably had loaded gloves when he did it.

I am not sure HOW Floyd Mayweather Jr will beat Pacquiao but I figure he will...I would love nothing more than Floyd to get sparked out but he's so good and slick on defense.

pac indeed prepared for the body punches cotto was going to feed him. as he said to jimmy kimmel that using a stick [beating his abs, sides] as part of his training was a mind conditioning.. anticipating pain in any given chances..

congrats to both fighters..

A gloating thread about picking a big favourite? (

Come on now Majesty, around half the people on this site picked Pac to win, and the majority of fans worldwide had Pac to win, he was a huge betting favourite.

Yep like I said : my Roller is going to out last your ford.
Hey Im a prediction king too!

Cotto got a hiding a real hiding, gutsy man.

I like how Manny has some sort of 'tracer type of a cross' that follows the path of the target as he opens up, it gives it room and as he moves his punch goes to where someones head finishes even if their head is moving in closer to Manny he creates the room to deal with it totally.
