    That performance scared mayweather so much he started asking for his homemade testing which he never asked for before.......

    Pac Man destroyed Cotto that night.. I remember it like it was yesterday.. I actually gave Cotto a chance until I found out who was training him for that fight.. He practically trained himself against he's hardest opponent at the time.. Crazy After the second knockdown Cotto was not the same.. He was visibly hurt and survived as much as the ref allowed..

    This version of manny is without a doubt my favourite fighter of this era
    Ferocious is the word that springs to mind .... he was fairly spiteful in the ring at this point as well until he lost that killer instinct

    So wish the mayweather fight happened around this time

    An awesome offensive display from Pac but I was suspicious that a small man like him could take some huge Cotto punches and smile back.

    It was a very impressive performance, with only a few drawbacks

    1. Manny roided off his damn head
    2. Cotto badly drained
    3. Cotto didnt even have a trainer

    If a clean Manny had beaten Cotto at his natural weight and with a decent trainer like that, it would have been one of the performances of the decade

    Nah, it wasn't about the trainer.

    Cotto looked OUTSTANDING. He pumped out brutal, heavy jabs and mixed in hooks and body punches. It wasn't a matter of game plans or trainer. Cotto just couldn't cope w/ the speed and angles. Speed and pressure kills Cotto every time. Pacquiao batters him 10/10 times.
