    After I understood the meaning of your post, it was too late to edit. My fault.

    Agree.

    Cotto is exciting but he is very methodical - not saying it is bad. Pac, although he tries to be ver methodically, usually throws the strategy out the window and gets wild.

    Talk about old thread, 2 years ago, but it is a hard choice because both of their styles are unique and exciting at the same time to me, but if I had to choose it would have to be Pacman for what PIPO said:

    "Pacquiao because he isn't textbook the guy is wild,and Boxing has never seen anything like PAC before.He is one of a kind. "

    Both are exciting but it also depends on which style you enjoy more. I personally enjoy Cotto's style of breaking a guy down with body shots and then chopping the head off, and don't mind that he gets in some exchanges here and there, makes for a more dramatic fight.
    Some other guys enjoy Pacquiao's erratic movement and unpredictability.

    No complaint about either fighter. They are both exciting. Manny is a little more technical and efficient than Cotto. Manny knows how to win and not get banged up in the process. Cotto has been busted up even in his wins.
