I've noticed that there's a considerable number of members here who pick Pacquiao to stop Cotto on November 14... To those who pick Pacquiao to stop Cotto by KO/TKO... What portion of the fight do you think Cotto will eventually be stopped? Early Rounds - Rounds 1 to 5 Middle Rounds - Rounds 6 to 8 Late Rounds - Rounds 9 to 12 Vote in the poll...
Im thinking late, TKO victory. Anything is possible with Pac though, wouldnt surprise me the least bit if he hurts Cotto early (inside 5), just unleashes hell on him and finishes him.
I think Cotto's eyebrows/face won't hold up that long from the Pacquiao onslaught... PAC via early TKO (inside 5) due to cuts on Cotto's face... .
It will be a tough test for Pacquiao. Cotto wil be very strong early on, but as we saw with Cotto/Margarito (loaded gloves or no loaded gloves) pressuring Cotto beats him. Cotto can't handle pressure fighters and that's what Pacquiao does best. God, I love that little guy
I thought Pac would stop Hatton early...it showed when Hatton was wobbled by Collazo & Lazcano...both nowhere near the punchers and finishers Pac is. I thought soon as Pac hurts Hatton, he finishes him. David Diaz & Oscar last up to middle-late rounds though, and I would put Cotto's toughnes and heart along those guys...therefore its logical he gets stopped a bit later, if at all, after a beating.
As you've said earlier, with Pacquiao it's possible the fight will end any time due to his explosiveness... We'll be in for another surprise... Could it be early like Hatton and Morales (3rd fight)?? Middle rounds like Hoya and Solis?? Or late rounds like Diaz and Morales (2nd fight)?? .
If Ricardo Torres exposed him imagine what Pac will do to him. End thread. And he's got that YMCA Trainer in his corner. Utter obliviation. It might be worse than Hatton.
Yep, Torres really exposed Cotto, all the way till he got knock the **** out.:roll: I really love that Cotto is the underdog in this fight. Reminds me of the Hopkins vs Trinidad fight. A lot of people are going to be devastated if Pacquiao looses. Shut the **** up newbie. Ha ha, beat you to it.:tong
I don't see Cotto getting knocked out cold. If Shane Mosley and Antonio Margarito couldn't do it, why would Pacquiao be able to? If there is a stoppage, I see it being due to Pacquiao's lightning quick punches ripping Cotto's face to shreds...could be stopped on cuts or something, but people saying Pacquiao will knock Cotto out cold don't know much about boxing. You never know, though...the little man just might!
So far, this poll is a battle between early and late stoppage... Can a PAC stoppage in the middle rounds make a rally?? .
