Cotto's "yes" men all around him

If you dont believe that is all part of the show and promo of this fight, then I think youve been duped just like Roach is trying to do to the Cotto camp. Roach clearly knows hes a "glamorous" trainer and is playing up the TV drama. Konscz is eating it all up too. But when you take all that away, still got Roach training Pac and both are committed solely to ultimately winning.

 

And even if you say all the drama around Pac camp is legit. Its all out in the open and everyone still performs their roles without issue. They almost have an acceptance as to how it is and still move on. Doesnt seem to be causing any hiccups in training. I like Cotto camp though, just dont think the corner is at max potential.

 

Of course they both have yes men. I just think Pac has a clearly defined leadership team in terms of his training/trainer. It looks very casual in the Cotto camp concering his training/trainer. Maybe it is because they are not discussing/showing much of what Cotto is doing with his trainer-whoever it really is-Cotto himself/the former assitant/his father? Which is fine since Cotto is winning but at what point may it cost him?

 

I think Cotto can beat Pac and if he does, I will not be upset. Im excited about a potentially exciting matchup being made. I like both fighters. May the best man win. Whichever one of them wins has the sky as the limit. Possibly even the loser still if its Pacman (he may have pushed the envelope with choosing to fight Cotto and may pay. But would still be able to put on some great fights in the jr welter division and below again). Cotto has an amazing resume in my opinion as an active welter fighting other welters, only maybe outdone by Mosley (makes it even more interesting considering Cottos win vs Mosley). Pacmans resume speaks for itself in the lower divisions, not to mention what he has accomplished recently in moving up. Great thing about both of them is that they will pretty much fight ANYONE and they have exciting fight styles. Very few guys out there like that. So much respect for both.
