If Cotto is going to KO pac. How is he going to do it?

i am a huge pac fan but think this fight is 50/50. I seriously doubt that pac will KO cotto considering cotto has been there against much bigger fighters.

but there is a strong possibility that cotto can send pac to the canvas and keep him there.

how do you think this scenario will play out. How will cotto achieve this objective.

post your intelligent analysis. i.e. meaning. this excludes the mayweather cocksucker brigades. you know who you are.

 

where are the cotto fans when you need them.

 

interesting.

i actually thought that cotto will catch pac with a powerful left. i do not see too much of accumulation since pac strategy will be to stay away from cotto and avoid close quarter battles.

 

thing is, nobody has hurt pac to the body in recent years. true he has not fought a tough ww but he was also coming up in weight against em and mab.

i think pac of dlh/diaz will show up and will try to engage from a safe distance. hitting the body of pac might be too difficult in my opinion. i don't remember jmm even employing this strategy.

 

true but what I am saying is this should have a semblance of reality.

dlh, hatton, jmm, em, diaz all tried to clinch/corner/harass and hurt pac to the body.

mab even sent pac woozy after hitting pac during a clinch. but to hurt pac enough to KO him, how can cotto achieve this.

cotto sent clottey to the canvas in the first round. pac has been sent to the canvas quite a number of times already but way before he achieve "prime" status.

 

on hind sight, that might be a good plan. what just prevents me from imagining it as a realistic plan is cotto's attack mode speed.

While he can apply pressure, he does not seem to have the sudden spring and attack speed which some fighters employ.

cotto gasses out during mid rounds and seem to plod in some rounds imo.

 

precisely my point. i am trying to play out the scenario, the strategy for cotto to win this fight.

I think cotto will have to go for broke here. get hit just to make sure he lands enough leather of his own.

a 12 rounds fight will surely favor pac imo and it is best that cotto overpower pac during the fight rather than try to win the fight through the distance.
