Pacquiao would have beaten the **** out of Floyd last night. I dont know how anyone cant see this. Cotto wasn't even doing anything special . Solid boxing, and a good jab, and he gave Floyd all he could handle. Pacquiao is an offensive dynamo, with endless stamina and an iron chin. Floyd got beaten up by a guy 4-5 year away from his prime, who gassed out by the 8th / 9th round sand Floyd still couldnt drop him or back him off. Just imagine pacquiao in there coming at Floyd - if Floyd can barely hurt Cotto how the **** he gonna back off Pacquiao?? I just hope this fight finally happens within the year. Floyd's basically done in a year or so, he looked old last night.
He beat a left-over of Pacquiao and he struggled. Nobody wanted to see Floyd vs Cotto. Pacquiao will throw twice as much punches than Cotto and with better power. If he stays on the ropes with Pacquiao he will get KTFO. But this fight will never happen because he is a coward.
All he could handle and won 2 rounds? Where are all the hardcore Pac fans/Floyd "haters" coming from. Cotto came to fight, no doubt and mad respect, and he gave it his all in every round. But it's hard to say he won a round definitively. Floyd did it comfortably, choosing to fight Cotto's style of fight when it was apparent that on the outside he probably would have stopped him. At no point in Pac's career would he ever been able to compete with Floyd. It's not only a stylistic thing, but also a skill level thing. Their on different levels.
Pacquiao had to weight drain Cotto and got to use 8oz gloves vs fighting Cotto at his real weight and 10oz gloves. Pacquiao and his fans are a disgrace to the sport sick of Pacquiao, Arum, and that whole bunch they are making a mockery of the sport with "catchweight" fights etc. there are 18 Divisions pick one and fight someone straight up at it.
Cotto won at least 2-3 rounds and he gassed out by the 8th or 9th round. Floyd never dominated him. Pacquao beat the ever living hell out of Cotto - a better version, 3 years ago. Floyd 'skills' are overrated . He could barely tag Cotto who has a leaky ass defense, and he cant put more then 2 punches together. He also looked old and slow last night . His reflexes and quickness are pretty much gone.
valiant effort gander... cottos success came from 1. a good jab, pacman have a good jab? 2. being strong on the inside and putting floyd on the ropes? pacman on the inside?
2-3 rounds - wow. Floyd struggled. A better version? One who was destroyed by possibly plastered gloves, and had a life and death battle with an average guy named Clottey? The guy had a period of a couple of years where he struggled, but like a a true champion, re-invented himself and got out of his slump. Cotto tonight was a much better version. Not weight drained, at a weight he was comfortable at and had been at for the past few years, with his best trainer of his career, and coming off a dominant win over Marg that avenged his first controversial loss (giving him great confidence). I think most people will agree tonight's Cotto was better. Much better, in fact.
Pacquiao doesnt need a jab bro. And he doesnt have to fight on the inside. That's a completely different fight. What Pacquiao does have is: Endless stamina The best offense in boxing Knockout power in both hands Very fast hands Very quick feet An iron chin Lots of determination and will to win Lets top it off with the fact that Floyd looked every bit like a 35 year old last night. Unless Pacquiao starts looking old too he beats the living daylights out of him.
nope- pacman will stop floyd! you guys still dont know the pacman! Pacman is floyds worst nightmare, he gives mayweather the crips i am sorry Money fans, money will be raped by the terminator in round 7
guess who else had endless stamina? floyd guess who else and very fast hands? floyd guess who else has very quick feet? floyd guess who else has lot of determination and will to win? floyd oh, who has a hell of a lot more skill than anyone pac has ever fought? floyd pacman has never looked good against any good defensive fighters, you know it.
