    Can't envision Cotto fighting 'the Marquez way' for 12 rounds. At some point, he would be inclined stand and fight and even stalk Pac.

    I still see a KD, but not a stoppage. UD in favor of Pac

    Damn, I guess I am the only one that can see Cotto sparking out Pacquiao at 154. He'd come in with an actual game plan and fight much smarter than the first fight. It would play out like his early days, where he just let the KO come by accumilation and not looking to trade bombs. If Cotto does that, he will break Manny down to the point where he would initiate the seek and destroy mode of old.

    That's the worst game plan I ever heard.

    The only time Cotto has "success" was when he was in full retreat mode.

    Everytime he fought with Pac, he got the **** beat outta him.

    Good thing you don't train him, huh?

    Manny wanted a catchweight again.

    Well, I would give him a bigger chance also but I wouldn't disccount him being bigger and having a real trainer as if it woulnd't make any difference. Everybody would have problems with the Pac that faced Cotto :good

    Cotto, PAC won't fight at 154 without having it a damn catchweight.

    Cotto has always had problems with high workrate boxers. Pacquiao has one of the highest workrates so it's no surprise cotto had problems.

    At first, I just can't see Cotto waiting forever just to counter.. But then.. :think

    On their first meeting I can't see Cotto backing down when it comes to fighting it it out toe to toe.. In the end, Cotto end up doing so.. :patsch

    So maybe Cotto will.. :smoke

    I don't want Pac to fight Cotto again even at 154. That's because I'm a Cotto fan and I don't want Pac to beat him up again just like he did the first time. I would prefer a Floyd Cotto rematch, because Floyd's pitty-pat punches wouldn't hurt my boy Cotto.

    Then tell your boy to accept 8oz gloves, instead of pillow fighting.

    They just followed the standard, there's nothing wrong with that.. :smoke

    If Floyd really wants that 8oz gloves, he should ask Cotto @147 since he said he fought him on fight night weighing 147 lbs.. :yep

    :lol: :lol:
