floydiots: nah.. cotto was drained, past prime, flat footed and f*** over-rated!!! seriously, its a very very good win. yeah i agree, mosley is a garbage fight. hope team pac gets floyd (lost his urge to fight), berto or maybe martinez.
An excellent win for the Pacman, and to date his greatest performance IMO. Pac was amazing that night.
It was a great victory over Cotto, but this was not the same Cotto that was portray to the bout. With the lawsuits he was facing, family issues, marriage problems, basically training himself and calling the shots in camp, aside from the Manny demands, and the rushing for the Manny fight after the Clottey fight, not yet heal. Cotto was set up for disaster... This would have take a toll on any fighter, I know many will disagree, but I think a rematch at a more comfortable weight and less of circus around him, could make this fight closer...
mab will always be his best for me, unless he beat mayweather. cotto is probably 2nd or 3rd with EM II. what a set of wins tho, from MAB at 126 to Cotto at 147
This is just a testament to how highly I rate Morales, that a victory over a weight drained (but not totally shot) Morales I rank higher then one over a 145lbs Cotto, but at the same time I appreciate what a fine win his victory over Cotto was.
Greatest pac fight: 1. Pac-Morales 1 (I know he lost, but damn! awsome fight) 2. Pac-Mab1 (p4p superstar was born) 3. Pac-Cotto (best pac performance) 4. Pac-Jmm 2 (DRAW AGAIN on my list, but best seesaw fight)
Leonard/Lalonde Leonard/Hearns II Leonard/Duran III De La Hoya/Hopkins Forbes/De La Hoya Chavez/Whitaker Martinez/P.Williams Pavlik/Taylor II Hopkins/Pavlik Hopkins/Winky Jones/Trinidad Marquez/Mayweather Taylor/Norris Gatti/Ward I,II,III Saul Alvarez/last 5 opponents and you can be sure there are plenty more and pac's probably the smallest out of these guys and definately had gone up far more weights than any of them (****ing oath he did), and he weighed less than his opponents in his catchweights
