    Yeah he did but Cotto fought the dumbest fight he had since Margo. He should have moved and boxed with Pac instead he thought he could simply overpower him. His movement later in the fight frustrated Cotto and gave him trouble. Anyone with a pair of eyes can see that movement gives Pac trouble.

    like I said I'm talking about number of punches landed and number received, not necessarily accuracy.


    look at it this way if we fight for one round and I land 15 out of 60 punches on you and you land 5 out of 10 on me... who is better at hitting who and not getting hit?

    Are you better because you landed 50% while I landed 25% or am I better cause I landed 3 times more punches than you did.

    I think Manny struggles a lot whenever somebody doesn't make them self a still target. Watch round 3 of the Morales fight, rounds 8 and 10 of the Cotto fight, and watch rounds 6 and 7 of the Jorge Solis fight.

    Cotto's movement later in the fight gave Pac trouble yet Pac managed to get the stoppage in the 12th and didn't lose a single round late in the fight on all 3 scorecards. That's a whole shitload of trouble.

    lol

    Mayweather has a way better percentage of landed/thrown than Pacquiao. Also has a way better percentage of opponents shots not landing/thrown. How is Pacquiao better at hitting and not getting hit? You could look at a fight and tell this easily.

    Check the punch stats in those late rounds.

    Pacquiao was landing 30+ punches per round

    You mean a bull**** stoppage that Cotto should have been allowed to contiune and could have made it through to the end? Yeah whatever. Cotto isn't the greatest at fighting off his back foot and moving but he still made Pac look like **** at times while doing so. What's so hard to see about that? Now get a guy who can fight like that for 12 rounds and Pac is in a world of **** and would get dominated.:deal

    Cotto would get messed up when he went to the ropes. When he was moving around though, he was beating Pac in round 10 and 2 of the judges gave it to him

    He made him want to quit because Mosley was shot but if you actually watched the fight Mosley was very effective with his movement. He just didn't have the legs and couldn't pull the trigger to fully capitalize on it. In other workds he had a sound gameplan but was too shot to execute it.:deal

    :patsch Now it was a bull**** stoppage... First Shane was making Pac look bad despite wanting to quit, now Pac only beat Cotto on a bull**** stoppage. And you wonder why people look at you as a fanboy? No objectivity at all.
