    They said that once Cotto get's in there, he wont know what to do...... Ariza the conditioning coach even joked making fun of Cotto holding his hands up and moving around no knowing what to do....

    And when Cotto beats him, I seriously doubt they'll be laughing anymore. What he needs to do is focus on the task at hand because I seriously doubt Cotto is really worried about what he's saying, his fighter has to fight the fight not him.

    Tells you something about the kind of bank Freddie has made in the last five years. He's making four digit throwaway bets.

    Exactly and anybody who does is a damn fool. I think the problem is people don't realize how good Cotto is, infact he's one of the most underrated fighters in boxing today. On the 14th people will find out and I hope pac fans don't make excuses about COTTO BEING THE BIGGER MAN, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR MAKING BOLD PREDICTIONS ABOUT PAC KNOCKING COTTO OUT.

    I still think Pac's going to KO Cotto. Maybe I'll be wrong. Maybe not.

    Freddie sounds like a Ricardo Mayorga, or Fernando Vargas when they talk **** and try to get in the fighters head. We all know what De La Hoya and Trinidad did to these two **** talkers!:fire

    erm. bold prediction but for someone like roach to bet just 1,000 isnt saying THAT much!!

    i think this will be a much closer fight than people expect.
    cotto is an amazing fighter. look at his resume he has fought EVERY top fighter in his weight over the last 3 years (including mosley) and he has beat them all, except for margarito in an epic!!

    however if i had to lean towards somebody id say pacquiao. i think his speed and skillset at the moment, coupled with the fact that he is right at the top of his game wheras cotto is questionably still damaged from the margo fight.

    i love cotto but id have to slightly lean towards pac-man for the moment!
    cant wait for the 14th

    Margarito did it but it took him 11 rounds not to mention the fact that he hits a lot harder than pac
