    Manny will be most vulnerable when he has to cover up.

    He does not cover up well:deal

    Pacman being the faster guy here, especially knowing that Cotto needs to plant his feet to get effective shots off, then I would rather see Pacquiao fight like he did against DLH. Quickly in and out from odd angles to deal with, + take advantage of any openings given by Cotto to add some combos and uppercuts, which Cotto has always been vulnerable to.

    It's been revealed that a 24-foot ring will be used for the November 14 bout between WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto and Manny Pacquiao. The ring size was requested by Team Pacquiao during the negotiations.


    "Among the things that were being discussed during the negotiations for the fight, the Pacquiao's people were asking a ring that measures 24 feet. That would give the Filipino the advantage, but we are going to prepare Miguel in such a way that he will be able to cut off the ring," Santiago told Primera Hora. "Miguel is the stronger fighter and that is going to benefit us to get the win on November 14."

    then it makes a Cotto win even more impressive if he manages to pull it off. And if Pac outboxes Cotto then alot of people will say "the ring was too big"

    You need to throw out everything you saw in the ODLH fight, that fight was against a shot weight drained fighter.

    Cotto is not ODLH.

    because he got beat real bad , right? Everytime a fighter loses badly, he's always proclaimed shot. Wasn't everyone and their grandmother saying that it was going to be a total mismatch?

    I wonder what excuses your going to have when Manny beats Cotto.

    I actually like it. I gave Cotto 2 of the last 4 rounds against Mosley when he was sticking and moving. I have no beef with anyone potshotting.

    LOL for real the double standard is funny. PBF do it it's running. Pac do it it's boxing lol it never stops. Floyd would also be called a ***** for asking for a huge ring.:good

    They (team Pac) asked for the ring during negotiations.
