    You're a dumbass. Go read my previous threads. I made about 50 saying that Pac would TKO Cotto.

    Cotto doesn't have the chin Oscar has and that was proved last night. Ya and Oscars predictions were wrong again, so? I don't have an emotional stake in the fight nor care who won so it was easy to see who I felt was going to win.

    I'm not saying all that. I just kind of felt confident in knowing that, although Cotto was going to be dangerous early....and would probably have PAC's attetion early that eventually the difference in class was going to show up. As Cotto fades down the stretch, PAC gets stonger. Knowing that Trend I predicted the fight going pretty much exactly how it played out.

    Cotto was going to be strong for the 1 half of the fight. THere was going to be a very short feeling out process. Cotto wouldn't find a rythm b/c of PAC's unorthodox style of fighting, the speed would ultimately be too much for Cotto and he's end but being saved by his corner in rounds 9 or 10. I didn't get the time of the stoppage correct but everything else played out like I had thought.

    Cott deserves a lot of credit. He didn't give up and yes...he does have flaws that were exploited but even with those Flaws he's a top WW capable of beating most!

    Hmmm.

    There are only two possibilities here.

    Either you are being sarcastic to make a point, in which case I applaud you - :happy

    Or you are a pathetic ****, in which case I wave goodbye to any credibility you may have ever had on this forum - :hi:

    I doubt I will find out which is true as I won't be returning to this thread, got too much celebrating to do. :good

    Naww!! don't wanna go through any DelaHoya love letters. I'll stick to my guns thank you.

    Oscar quit last time I checked. At least Miguel fought till the end.

    At 154.....OK. Floyd is also bigger than Manny, who was a WW for yrs before facing Oscar at 154, so the move up in weight wasn't the jump Manny had to take from really 130 to 147 given the fact that Manny only had ONE fight at 135 before beating DLH at 14. And to throw you a bone.....sure FLoyd had the "better :lol:" version of the golden one but he STRUGGLED. PAC destroyed him! Lets just say for the version PAC got vs the version Floyd got....PAC did what he had to do where Floyd failed to live up to his standards.

    I know PAC wouldn't have stopped a prime EM in 3.....but the version of PAC that beat EM isn't even close to the version that PAC is right now. Given the fact that PAC was still improving and not close to the compelte fighter before us today...I'd say...Prime for PRime....PAC is and would always be the better fighter than EM.

    Again...you discredt Manny's win b/c you seem to have a need to justify how he performs. DLH wasn't at is overall best.....but Manny still did what he was suppose to do and MORE! No one gave PAC a shot....then after the dominance had to quickly excuse the performance b/c it didn't make sense.:rofl PAC dominated a fighter who was great, on the slide but anther equally great fighter in FLoyd struggled with a year earlier.

    I call all those wins great b/c I have a level of perspective that covers the full spetrum. PAC in those wins is not the PAC we see today. Given that fact we'd have to say that if PAC was as good as he is right now and had faught EM, MAB, JMM or whoever back in the day that he'd definitley would have beaten them more dominantly.

    EPIC EPIC EPIC FAIL! Why would a guy (Cotto) be eating like a king on 24/7 if he was struggling to mke weight. he was only 1lb heavier at 146 when he weighed in for clottey. he is nowhere near shot. I now believe that hatton isn't either. Pacquiao is a freakish dynamo and truly an ATG. I hated him for beating Hatton but i have to admire the man

    This is the dumbest **** I heard about this fight ... I wanted Miguel to win, but i'm not going to discredit Pacquiao for winning that fight ... I didn't do it when he beat DLH or Hatton ... and I picked Hatton to beat him ... it had nothing to do with the weight drain ... Miguel didn't have the neccessary footwork or speed to match Manny and he got discouraged when he noticed that he couldn't noticeably hurt Pacquiao - or get Pacquiao to show hurt.

    Miguel made it a great fight for as long as his skill would allow him ... his face gave up on him and he was starting to "think" ... <---- anyone can fill that in.

    LOL. Anyway, he wasn't drained vs CLottey at 146. He came off his game plan and Pac caught him. He was never the same after the 2nd knockdown. Can't try to swing wild with Manny, you've got to stay disciplined.

    If he was weight drained and shot he would've looked more like Daniel Santos ...
