    I have been hearing the same thing with pacman taking Cotto out early.

    For the record....Cotto will have Pacman belly up for the final time in the 7th round !!!!

    Good enough for me ---- 7th to 11th but I'm sure Pacmans going down..

    With Mannys southpaw stance and Cottos recent cut in the Clottey fight i would hate to see an accidental headbutt and mess up the fight early on.

    8-12 rounds this fight will go ... if it goes earlier than that then it will be Cotto the victor.

    Definitely a concern....however, when Pacman rushes in with those sucker punches he doesn't lead with his head as does Urkal and Clottey.

    Nor have I seen Pacman deliverately using his head on the inside to cause any harm....but that set up does lend itself to incidental head clashes.

    Cotto is working on his defense and improving his speed.....I think he will time Pacman's rushes with a left hook or stiff jab and take his legs out from under him...then commence a vicious body assault.

    Pacman is going to experience first hand what it is like to fight a TRUE welterweight that can move, think and punch !!!!!


    Another stunning beauty in your avatar....congratulations on your keen eye for the cuties !!!!
