If cotto handles mosleys speed, what makes you think he wont be able to handle pacs? As far as cottos chin, he doesnt have a problem at 147. He got dropped at 140 because he was too drained. I think the fight could really go eitherway and think pac is gonna have trouble with cottos boxing. Cotto will not slug, he will box. I wouldnt bet on this one.
should I change it to "knows Cotto probably wont win on saturday" I know he can...its just not probable :/.. Im hoping for a good fight as im a fan of both fighters..
I expect both guys to box in a tactful fight....but manny's activity will give him the win on the cards.....
different styles ones a southpaw ones orthodox. as I said Cottos best chance is using his jab and boxing Pac
I stopped reading right thereatschif you're using 24/7 as a source to make your prediction, I can see how your vision can be so heavily skewed. if you didn't pick up by now that team Cotto reveals very little about anything, anything revealed by both respective teams was allowed to be filmed by them to begin with, not to mention the show is heavily edited....
sounds like you have a problem with authority. your wrong in your assumptions about me as a person. Just getting my opinion out there. You do bring up some good things about Cotto he has a good side step and some feints and he does keep his hands up and most importantly he has excellent timing on his left jab which is why i said he has to jab and box its his best chance of winning. As I stated before Cotto is definitley solid but Pacquiao will prove to be too intense and his ferocity and fighting style will make the difference. Hoping for a good fight like I said. I enjoy watching fighters try to out tactical and out think each other.
Pacman's speed is all around agility speed, and knows how to use them. Not just hand speed like those of Shane and Judah. On the other guys comment about 24/7, don't ever base your analysis on what you see on 24/7. It's a program designed to sell the fight. Do u honestly think either fighters camp would show what they're really up to? 24/7 is purely for promotional and entertainment purposes.
Pacs has better handspeed than both of them. Tho i will say it close with zab, because zab is some kind of athletic freak when it comes to speed and power (too bad he cant put it together and fight).... But wtf, no **** his handspeed is better then mosley. Mosley's handspeed has gone to **** since the last DLH fight. His little touch jabs look like **** these days... Cotto actually looked (due to timing) on par with mosley a few times.... Mosley is wayyy past his prime.... he only looked good cuz margarito is slow as ****. Pac is alot faster then cotto or mosley
I pick pac to win on this one, not by knockout but on points....one huge factor on this would be cottos cut, with pac's speed, i think cotto will start to bleed around 3rd rnd and this will affect him very badly... BUT to say you dont know about boxing because you chose cotto to win is ABSURD!!! rahman cant win against lewis, but with one punch he knocked lewis cold...that's boxing, anything can happen with one punch...sorry to tell you this but, i think you're the one who dont know anything about boxing...
Good points. I think the main thing is Pacman is probably just a better all around fighter, but Cotto is strong and has guts- a little similar to how we saw Hatton, but he is bigger and I doubt Hatton would have beaten the caliber of Mosley. So there is something about Cotto which might make this fight interesting. He is good.
this fight is going to be insane!! Too many people who feel they know the outcome, including myself. But we will find out Saturday night. Cheers!:thumbsup
