What do you guys seriously think each fighter has to do to win? I've been watching many of their fights and you may or may not agree with this, but Cotto is susceptible to the same punch that stopped Hatton (in my opinion). When Cotto throws his hard left hook, he usually drops his right hand from his face for a moment and Pacquiao could get in and land it, just like he did against Hatton. I hope Cotto has watched the Hatton fight and learns from it, because everything else has me picking Cotto in this one. Mayweather has said he would fight Cotto and I think it would be better than Mayweather v Pacquiao. Mayweather would be fighting a welterweight! Oh my gosh!
Keys to Victory Cotto: 1)Use the jab to disrupt Manny's rhythm/control distance and pace of fight and counter Pac-Mans when he comes forward THROWING COMBINATIONS. 2)Cotto has the ability to counter and lead in the trenches and is a better in-fighter take advantage of strength and power advantages, dont just go forward or just wait and bait, Cotto must be a boxer puncher and make Pac-Man move backwards where he sint comfortable. 3)Include a bodywork to break down the smaller fighter. If Pac-Man keeps up a frentic pace and takes lots of shots to the body he will wear down once late rounds come 4)Use the left hook and right hand...MANNY drops his right when he throws a left and leave his chin exposed...throw your best punch Cotto Keys to Victory for Pacquaio: 1)Make Cotto miss and pay take advantages in speed of hand and feet 2)Make Cotto work,Pac-Man is one of the best conditioned fighters today 3)Counter the lefthook with the straight right...straight punches land first 4)use Lateral movement, stay from the ropes, Manny isnt as good as he is fighting off the ropes or being defensive as being at midrange 5)Use the uppercut and str8 left when Cotto uses his ear muffs 6)Break Cotto down with Bodywork Winner:Too close to call....Pac-man should be the Favorite but Im pulling for Cotto...No one besides his fans think he will win.
