    Reason why I think the fight won't happen at this point. Bob is going to try to get Cotto to sign back with Top Skanks all the while low balling Cotto on money and getting him to fight with 8 oz gloves and another catchweight. Cotto will probably glady tell Arum to **** off. Manny is just wishful thinking right now thinking back on his 2nd best win of his career.

    Manny has option, Marquez chance he may lose but thats a money fight, he can fight Bradley in a rematch sure it wont do well in terms of PPV but it gives him a chance to avenge his loss.

    How is Cotto going to run Negotiations here Pacquiao still has interest in this sport considering most of the world really somehow thinks he was robbed though I disagree, if thats the perception his stock really hasnt taken a hit.

    I want Cotto to face Canelo, it would be a good match Mex vs PR all over again, and it will do big numbers at the gate and PPV it will be a good farewell beat down for Miguel nice chunk of change before he hangs em up I want to see it.

    I dont think Cotto can beat Pac, or Floyd there is no need for rematches there TBH....

    :lol: because we both know that Manny wants no parts of Marquez anymore and the Bradley fight will flop. TR's inability to do business with outsiders got manny stuck. so he wants another win over a guy he clearly beat.

    Pacs options are very limited right now. so if he wants Cotto he better try to make him happy because Cotto Vs. Canelo sounds like a better match up with ALOT of money in it.

    i was never called a filthy crab before :lol:. i dont even know what that means.

    i watched the fight 2 times after i watched it live, with and without sound. pacquiao won. **** even bradley knew pac won. if bradley stated he has to watch the fight over again to see if he won or lost he has doubt in his mind.

    “I did my best but I just couldn't beat the guy” - Timothy Bradley

    But whatever, call it how you see it and be the minority. It's your life. Yolo and ****. This horse is dead, no use beating it anymore.

    Cotto Canelos is a better match up, you can talk drained all you want for Cotto Pacquiao 2 thats the least of Miguels issues should they agree to fight.
    Miguel all through out camp the moment the rematch is signed he knows deep down the beat down he took in that fight, mentally the question I have is can he get past that? I doubt it that kind of loss your going to carry with you in a rematch.
    There is no need for the rematch period catchweight or not, Bring on Canelo vs Cotto, Let Manny fight Bradley and Marquez I feel he lost both fights try to avenge those losses and retire

    He is still too slow and doesn't posses the foot speed or quickness of head movement to avoid Pac's shots.

    I originally said the same thing you posted, but thinking more and more about it. I don't think Cotto could ever beat Pac. :deal

    pacquiao still beats him just not as cleanly as last time, hes lost a bit since then but then again so has cotto. They both fight a little more cautiously now.

    If the weight doesn't make a difference then fight him at 154. Simple.

    its a style thing between the two I agree I do not think Miguel can beat Pac, I didnt feel the same when the fight was made first time round and supported Miguel through that, only to watch him stop trying in the last two rounds basically quitting the fight very disappointing to see Miguel do that a 2nd time.

    it comes down to this, Speed, Miguel couldnt deal with Mannys speed, he couldnt hurt manny in that fight, and those left uppercuts couldnt miss if Manny tried.

    Those shots are still there, Floyd landed quite a few and actually hurt Miguel with a nasty left uppercut.....

    I'm a huge Cotto fan, and I would like to see him get a chance to redeem his loss. They are both big names, both are shopworn just enough to make them vulnerable, and both will be extremely motivated coming off losses.

    Cotto should tell Arum to go **** himself and fight Canelo in NY or even South America.

    Out of all the 'realistic' fights for Pac - Cotto, Bradley, Marquez and Money, Cotto at a catchweight is the one I would like to see the least. FFS Pac is probably only going to fight a few more times, the amount of respect I have lost for him the last few years is quite sad.

    I think Pac should Fight JMM again, he needs to beat JMM clearly to solidify his legacy. If he fights Cotto at anything but 154 looks bad on him, so he should leave Cotto alone for now.
