    "Pacquiao will throw the punches in those first three rounds that Clottey didn’t throw. Pacquiao will make sure that during those little spots where others have allowed Cotto to recuperate, he will come with many, many power shots that will take out Cotto. I think if Pacquiao does that, Cotto does not survive. I think that the ghost of Margarito is still tap dancing in his brain. The Margarito memory combined with the Pacquiao tenacity, I think that Pacquiao gets rid of Cotto inside of five, maybe three rounds. This will not become the kind of epic battle that it had the potential to be."

    Neither one of them have much respect for Pacquiao.
