Cotto's Habits

Uppercuts

 

Yeah! Margarito hit him with the uppercut like they were jabs.

 

Cotto has a habit of adapting and beating down his opponents, so their plan is to play tag all night.:good

 

He tends to "reset" after every set of punches he throws.

 

He does do this:thumbsup

 

Judah couldn't miss with that left uppercut either.

 

I've always noticed it throughout all of his fights. If Pacquiao can use his speed to jump on Cotto when he "resets", then he can really throw Cotto off of his rythem.

 

bad habits??

hmmmm the only things that come to mind are lame tattoos and those weird oil ass rubdowns :rofl

 

good point. their plan could be to attack while he resets. but i hope they have more than that because cotto will adjust to that.

 

He does reset as do alot of fighters Manny included, I think what they are planning on taking advantage of is when he does reset he tends to move to his left with that left hand down low, so I expect to see Pacquiao exploit that with Right hooks.....

 

i have never seen him standing in the middle of the ring if the other guy has the chin to stand his shots.

 

Good points.

Also can't fight going backwards and he eats the overhand right a lot.

His defense generally is leaky.

 

This is gonna be big for trouble Cotto. He always leaves a nice window for someone to beat him to the punch. He always likes to plant his feet and try and get some power. He just leaves alot of time and space for a man who likes to jump in and lead then get back out. Cotto is gonna be hard pressed to get a chance to set himself in a comfortable position that he needs to throw. Manny beats him to the punch most of the night.

 

Roach claim's Cotto telegraphs his left hook before he throws it like Ricky Hatton.
