    Why so sensitive? :cool:

    Cotto's one of my favorite fighters. And I never say anything bad against him.

    Reading that quote, he does sound like a pissed off Puss in Boots.

    Hey, C.

    Compared to MP, Cotto's a huge guy. He used to remind me of a little Mike Tyson. I dont care what they say about "natural/walk around weight", Miguel's just got the naturally bigger body structure and better strength.

    And I thought MP's going to become a regional gatekeeper when he jumped from 112 to 122 and his title hunting days would be behind him.

    Dangerous fight.

    Of course he's naturally bigger, no arguing about that. And you're correct about labeling this fight as dangerous for Pac (as it is for Cotto, of course, he's facing the p4p #1), Cotto's bigger, he sure has punching power and he can take some nasty shots and continue fighting. My belief is that, if Cotto manages to catch Pac, Pac may get in serious trouble.

    I think that Pac's momentum and the way he's been dispatching his latest opponents make most of his fans think Cotto will be fairly easy prey. That's not the case, at least theoretically.

    pac-man cannot fight for the belt if its at 145...what would he do if he wins..would he make all who wants to challenge him for the belt drop down to 145? That's ridiculous...not to mention, it would start a dangerous precedent...think about it

    Does Cotto know that a Roach will survive a nuclear war?

    Hold up there my Boricua buddy, lets get our facts straight. The blown up bantamweight didnt choose Cotto, and even though you Cotto fans like to use the argument that Cotto never calls out anybody, it was Cotto who mentioned Pacquiao's name first and even agreed to catchweight before there were even talks about the fight.
