Is Miguel Cotto too BIG for Pacquiao?

[brucelee]

Cotto gets brutally KOED by Pacquiao like Hatton was or worst.
Ive seen Cotto hurt way too many times to think Pacquiao cant hurt him.

he took bricks to the face for 11 rounds i think his chin is more than just decent

Cotto would be the most dangerous fighter Manny will face. I'm giving them 50-50 chance. Actually, more for Cotto 55-45.

Hope pac vs mayweather happens. Cotto is too risky and too little reward for Pac.

too little reward? the man is ranked #2 at welter and has a huge fanbase, sells out MSG every time he fights there, so yea dunno what you're talkin about, a high risk little reward fight would be something against, Collazo, Clottey, Quintana, etc.

[XaduBoxer]

I'll make my comment if this fight get signed... Cotto has a bigger problem to face... I think, Clottey is BIG for Cotto...

That hasn't been proven and probably never will...
Other than Margarito like Quintana,Torres and Judah etc. have hurt him.
Pacquiao hits harder then them and bricks.

Cotto dominated Quintana, Torres wobbled him the worse of the 3 and went on to prove he's got REAL power at 140, and Judah hurt him 2 times then got his ass handed to him, the hardest puncher that Cotto has fought was Mosley and he took his shots just fine, Pacquiao doesn't punch anywhere as hard as Mosley

Mosley must hit pretty dam hard then.
Pacquiao hits like a tons of bricks with that left of his...and Cotto has problems with other southpaws as we saw with Judah.

My point is if Pacquiao gets that left hook as Judah and Margarito did Cotto is going night night.
(the plaster if it was there during the fight wasnt the reason why Margarito was landing so many punches)

[amat]

Margarito wasn't landing a whole bunch of punches though. He was landing to the body well but Pacquiao isn't really a body puncher otherwise he wasn't really landing much at all as Cotto's defense was excellent.

It's an interesting fight if it happens, with how accurate Pacquiao is I do think he would rock Cotto but no doubt about it he is 10 times more dangerous then either Hatton or De La Hoya because he can fight more then one way.

I don't remember Mosley stopping Oscar. Mosley does hit hard, but I see Pacquiao because of the punches he throws hurting Cotto worse than Mosley ever would.

[CutMeMick]

I don't think the body size matters.

I think it's down to other elements here.

I feel Pac is a bit more well rounded fighter then Cotto.
While Cotto does have a better jab, Pacs got speed and vice versa they both have things they are better then the other.

In the end I think Cottos too patient and is too relaxed someone like Pac who punches in bunches and is busy throughout the fight can overwhelm him and pin him on the ropes.

I also believe Pac has the power to hurt, drop and possibly TKO, Cotto.

[halo1]

If the fight is at 140 Cotto would be disadvantaged and would probabaly have a less than 50:50 chance.

But at 147, I do not think Pacman will have enough power to knock Cotto out. I see it 55:45 in favor of Cotto.

That is coming from a confirmed Pacman nuthugger since Pacman Barrera 1.

[awdleyfuturehalloffamer]

Pac should face off against valuev next. He'd probably ko the giant.

[Snakey]

I dont want to play this game haha Ive already said dela hoya is way too big and already said hatton would be too big and strong...the prick has proven me wrong every single time. Cottos chin aint granite and it pacs power and speed might be enough to make cotto weary and could cause him to be gun shy leading to a pac victory by tko. Its just too hard to say now, pac just looks so god damn small but the cunt can punch.

that's because Mosley fought Oscar while DLH was still in his prime, unlike Pacquiao, the DLH that Mosley beat at 147 wouldn't have been stopped by the Manny of now either, Mosley has taken out dudes that weigh above 147 though, so yea Shane does have power
