    Oh he's hear, I assure you.

    Just being realistic in this one. Cotto is still a tough/good fight for it to be considered a "duck" even though I pick Pac to knock him out within 8 rounds. Pac will most likely have an easy fight as he waits for the winner of Mayweather/Marquez, there's a lot of time till these guys mix it up so Pac picking on an opponent to stay active is logical.

    Not a duck because Cotto is a quality fighter. It's akin to choosing to fight Vitali instead of Wladimir and then being accused of ducking the #1 heavyweight. Choosing a quality opponent over another quality opponent is not cowardly at all.

    If I post "Cotto is a tune up" then I said it. I didn't. It was a hypothetical "what if" in response to this thread title.

    heres the thing you fake asses dont realize, neither manny nor pbf need each other to solidify their legacies, pbf can do it by beating the welters, manny can do it by beating the light welters and the lightweights.

    These idiots act as if pac's legacy will be left out in the open if he never fights Floyd. These kids actually think a legacy is defined fight by fight....

    Here's a clue ..it's based on the entire career!! :deal

    Pac's been active dumb ass. How woulld Cotto be a tune up, anyway? I'm saying that he doesn't want to fight Floyd in fear of being outboxed...Cotto would still be a great fight to watch. Cotto is no ones tune up chump. Pac would rather have a slugfest which to me would say he's ducking a particular type of fighter...who gave him his most tough fights lately? Who's "that" fighter on HGH? Smartin up sucker.

    :lol: Yeah....that's it. Pac lives in fear... :rofl

    You ****in wannabe experts look at boxing so simplistically and rudimentary... always an easy answer....which means you really don't know ****.

    And i didn't say Cotto WAS a tun up, LEARN TO READ, I said if Pac chose him as one. :patsch

    A year ago this wasn't even a possibility. Things change. Pac can have a great legacy w/o facing Mayweather and vice versa... :patsch
