    i'm surprised also that pac was a big favorite at the start. probably they think cotto struggled against clottey while pac looked magnificent against hatton. but who would not struggle against someone like clottey?

    Because we can read. Some of the drama coming from the Pac camp hasn't been good. Still, Pac will stop Cotto inside of 6.:yep

    it just goes to show how many fans make their decisions based on hype, rumors, etc. pacquiao wasn't communicating with roach (supposedly), roach starts saying he doesn't think manny will knock cotto out (who knows if he means it), cotto starts up camp early and shows he's more serious about this fight and willing to put in extra effort (could work for or against him)... now suddenly the tides have turned amongst the majority.

    I'm rooting for Cotto but, to let you know phillipinos are very consistent and responsible and work really hard no matter what they do. I don't think he is over looking Cotto that is not there nature.

    I still believe that when Pac starts training he will be fully focused and show up in top form. Pac is still faster hand and definitely foot,and I believe has the bigger punch. Against Clottey and Mosley he(Cotto) was able to move about the ring and stay out of harms way when things got rough. With Pac he won't have that choice.

    the more u analyze the facts the more cotto has a chance. cotto has the ability 2 adapt in mid fight and pac doesn't, he has just one speed which is his big advantage anyhow. if cotto succeds in backing up many and jabing him 2 death it would make this fight easier than anyone expected, and if the cotto that fought shane shows up than pac is in trouble, but easier said than done. i give pac lots of props but still think cotto wins UD.

    wtf are you all smoking, cotto is to big for pac.pac will hit him with some petty **** and cotto will drops bombs on him.it still took margo 6 to 7 rds to get cotto in real trouble.clottey ****ed his eye up early but it took him longer aw well to get to cotto.mosley had cotto hurt late in the fight.

    sorry but after shane, margo and clottey, pac should be a much easier fight for him.the fight will be good because manny is warrior and comes to fight, but he will still get crushed.i want manny to win for the pbf fight doe.

    It's called boxing logic. Common boxing logic dictates a good bigger man will most likely defeat a good smaller man. With that said, Manny Pacquiao has not been a very good listener.

    Nallege, stop insulting the intelligence of ESB members. Only a complete moron would believe these 2 videos have any bearing on Pacquiao's current fights.

    It's as meaningless as the following video:

    Nopes . . . no change of heart for me . . . in fact I haven't made a pick yet.

    And I have been leaning on Cotto since the start. :deal
