    I hope I'm not jinxing it but I think tonight's fight is going to be one for the ages.

    After a relatively cagey start by round 5/6 I think there'll be blood and power punches galore.

    I'm picking Manny to win rounds 11 & 12 (maybe a KD in these rounds) to pull out a close UD/MD.

    This is going to be great.

    I agree with you. I see a close fight, no KO.

    I agree with the close decision.

    I think Pacman will bank some early rounds with cotto taking over during mid rounds but pacman gets a second wind and finishes stronger.

    Possible, I expect Pac to move more than usual in order to avoid Cotto's body punching. Pac might still have energy in the late rounds. I don't see Pac KOing Cotto who is durable, has a good chin and solid defense.

    I've said this all week.....pacquiao beats cotto on activity alone, giving him the decision win.....pacquiao does not try to KO guys like mike tyson did....that's not his style....it just happens...

    some think pacquiao is mini-tyson or something bigger...

    Is anyone picking Cotto by decision?? Manny fights at such a high tempo and Cotto is prone to gassing that I just can't seee this happening (though it does look like Cotto has had a really good training camp).
