    Believe that.

    Cotto was HBO's golden child and eeked a win he shouldn't have and that was when he was in his prime too.

    The odds on Manny winning are far too big imo. I'm confident manny will win but the odds vs Cotto were closer and Cotto sure as **** aint no Shane Mosley.

    Don't sleep on Shane he's very similar to Hopkins. look what happened vs Mayorga. look what happened when HBO tried to feed him to Cotto. Manny needs to be 100% focused in this fight.

    Hopkins has better ring intelligence and is much more wily than Mosley.

    No way u could give that fight to Mosley. It was 7-5 Cotto, though an argument could be made for a 6-6 draw.

    The Pac camp has repeatedly claimed that this was pac's best camp in recent memory. Almost no distractions (though the way Pac functions, I don't know if that's a good or bad thing)

    2 years ago Mosley was more dangerous opponent to Pac than Cotto. Cotto has the same height and reach as Pacman. Shane is visibly bigger. But now Mosley was exposed, so he isnt that danegrous opponent for Pac.

    I think that Pac-Cotto II would be a pretty good and tough fight. But at 154 pounds without any cathweights.

    Cotto clearly beat him. Close fight, yes, but a definite win for Cotto.

    Very similar to Hopkins? Why because they train together?lol He looks like a decent trainer to his son from what I've seen from Fight Camp but Mosley & Hopkins are night and day as far as styles. Hopkins suits longetivity more because of his smarts and because of him not relying on atlheticism like Mosley did heavily in his career. I thought Mosley lost against Cotto in a close fight because of Cotto's jab and just being smarter but it was a great fight.

    "very similar to Hopkins" it was at this point I decided to disregard everything you ever say. You trying to get better odds for Manny or something?! hahaha

    Close fight. But no way could it be given to Shane.
