    Pacquiao has magical timing.

    Na Pacman clearly beat Cotto. Pacqauiao's head movement and timing will win every time.

    Cotto leans his left foot before throwing a jab. Pacquiao's great reflex allows him to time Cotto's jab.

    Wow...sometimes I sit down and think about it, and I can't believe Pacquiao ****ed Cotto up the way he did. He is an amazing fighter, and I think we would have seen him in his finest hour against Floyd Mayweather.

    :huh he had SOME success early on until Manny got his timing down. After that is was all Manny and his straight Left.

    If Cotto kept jabbing and moving instead of trying to stand in the pocket and trade he could have taken the fight on points...

    I think from round 2, Pac had his timing down.

    I don't see this as an even match up ... maybe cottos left hook vs pacs straight is but this ... pac hands down .. pacs straight left can arguably be boxings best punch .. cottos left hook can be too but his couple last fights he's lost some of that claim ... cottos jab is above average .. nice timing and strong but its short ... id take some other jabs over his ... id take pacs straight left over any other straight left in the game right now maybe ever ..

    Shouldn't it be because of the other guy's great performance?..
