    Cotto's a big name who's still in his prime and has many good fights left. I doubt that him and his team would risk making a weight too low just for a shot against Pac. If Cotto's team says he can make 145 then I trust them more than any other poster here saying that Cotto will be weight drained @145.

    You know, i dont think cotto has a stronger chin than hatton... i may be wrong though. But i would love to see Cotto win, but something tells me Manny will stop him

    Same story huh? Once again, Pacman's opponent seems to have all the advantages. Just like I figured de la Hoya would get him, just like I figured Hatton would get him, I am going to predict that Manny's YET UNTESTED chin at this weight is going to be his downfall. But I wouldn't be surprised at all if Manny beats Cotto all over the ring like he did Hatton and takes only a scant few good shots to the chin. Manny has just been that good. But I'm not fool enough to predict he will do something that incredible AGAIN. Cotto by mid round KO.

    I honestly think that this is Cotto's "retirement pension" fight...I think Cotto realizes that he may never be the same fighter after the Margarito fight...he's cashing out on this one. This is going to be a blow-out!!

    As much as I would like Cotto to win this fight, he won't. This is a bad matchup for him. One big mistake that Cotto makes that I notice is after he throws his left hook whether to the head or body, he freezes for a split second. That is all it takes for Manny to throw counters. Side stepping counter-punches will be huge in this fight for Pacquiao. If I can see it, I know Roach sees it. A cut will be the determining factor in this one.

    I think he will suffer the same fate Hatton did...vicious career ending KO!!

    Going to be a great fight. I'm just hoping it goes longer than pac/hatton.

    I'm kind of worried that Pacquiao is going to just come out swinging and Cotto won't have time to adjust to his speed. Should be a good fight for as long as it lasts. Hopefully Cotto remembers to go to the body
