    I myself, cant remember being this excited for a fight. These are two of my favorite fighters and regardless of what happens; we the fans win!

    Does this fight rate up there with the Chavez/Taylor,
    De La Hoya/Mayweather, Trinidad/Vargas? I think so, there is a lot riding on this fight, and I feel it can be an epic fight.

    Were do you guys rate it?

    Very high, everyday that passes I feel more anxious about the fight.

    Its the same with Pac/Hatton but only to a more longer extent. I was struggling to breathe when the starting bell rang for the Hatton fight, I fear I may pass out during the national anthems for this fight.

    This fight is the shiznitz...if you're either Flipino or Puerto Rican LOL

    Seriously, it's a really anticipated fight because these two guys ain't like a box of chocolates as Forrest Gump would say. You know what you're gettin with these two guys, all action all punches no girly pitty-pats no potshots no playin tags.

    I'm extremely excited for this fight, personally. So are people who want to see Pac-PBF.

    I think there are a good number of people, though, who feel Cotto has seen his better days and is going to get a beatdown. That could hurt interest, we'll see.

    I expect this Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight as a highly competitive (as long as it last :D ), exciting, entertaining boxing war... Fans will go home fully satisfied... This is one of the most highly anticipated fight in recent years...

    Unlike that joke tuneup, mismatched fight last September...;)

    I'd give it an 8.5.

    Honestly I'd give Pac-PBF a 10.

    Cotto gets mad respect, but he just aint super-special. I can imagine one day telling my grandkids about watching Pac and about watching PBF. I can't imagine telling them about Cotto.
