    Just released in PR's newspaper.

    For my non Spanish speakers

    Cotto made some interesting points:

    - He is not impressed by Manny's last fights,quote"he has two arms and so do I, I'm not impressed"

    -they asked him about the weight issue quote " I do not care if the fight is at 145,that is the weight we mentioned to begin with, I'll be 8 to 10 pounds heavier the day of the fight"

    -he also mentioned that he won't make any changes to his corner,that he is going back to Tampa and that he is waiting for Top Rank to confirm the fight.

    That's all

    So what Cotto thinks, are we supposes to be impressed with Cotto's last fights?

    SD against Clottey
    TKO over a nobody
    TKO'd against Margarito

    Pac's last few fights have been abit misleading. Even though I along with many others picked Oscar to beat him none of know that Oscar would be a zombie.

    True. With all the "im going to be bigger than you Manny." i hope he doesnt get to overconfident cus pac is dangerous and he has a huge chance. But Cotto is a more reserved man and i know he will train hard cus he will have to.

    It sucks about the corner though. I think for a fight of this magnitude it would have been good to have some world class help in the corner but if he is confident in his team than more power to him.

    You gotta love Cotto! A man of no excuses and ready to fight anyone. I just wish his fanaticis were more like him.

    LOL! You love Miguel don't you? I don't blame you. He's great for the sport for many reasons. But don't go betting your house or anything on him. You could very well end up homeless.:yep

    I think Cotto will lose against PAC if its in Vegas. I read he will go back and train in FL which is a dumb move. A good choice for him is train in Vegas and change his corner. If not we will see Cotto running for his life again from the 5-6 round and up.

    Very true. Like with Hatton. "Same move every time, bet on Hatton lose your house, bet on Hatton lose your house."
