    I really don't think so. Yes is true that Pac is a superstar in his country. If he were to lose against Cotto it is because fighting at 145 against an elite welter is a hard task. Whatever happens after the fight Pac deserves all the respect of the world, not only for being a great boxer but for what he does for his community.

    Cotto is still getting KTFO regardless.

    I think it has and he probably thinks he doesn't need Roach anymore, but who knows may'be it's just a great job by HBO's team for editing some parts and having people talk about this. Regardless though, this isn't the opponent you want to be taking lightly. This is Pacquiao's first great opponent in awhile (probably since Marquez) that isn't shot or weight drained.

    You guys make it sound like he did not run for the whole training. There are just a few days that he did not run and you are already claiming that his training is ****ed up. Sometimes they also travel for promotions purposes and they don't have time to run.

    You are so easily swayed by the media without having the abiity to think for yourself.

    The TS said that Pac is a prima donna now. Someone who sneaks away from the training camp to help those affected by flooding doesn't make you a prima donna.

    Every single fan is the same. Talk about Tito, Cotto, the ricans come in droves. Talk about Calzaghe, same. Hopkins, same. Etc, etc. Nothing new. Useless thread.

    Yes Manny is such a prima donna. :-( He's not allowed to disagree with anything ever.

    I would think so...he came from nothing, and was a nobody just a few years ago. Wouldn't that got to your head?

    I think Manny is aware that Roach has taken him to the highest peak of the sport and feels that Roach at this stage is not really much for him, it would be sad to see Manny ditch Roach but all good things come to an end.....

    its Mannys people that are really causing the drama, getting into Mannys head... Yes I beleive the fame is getting the better of him at this stage....
