    You can best believe that if the fight is made, PAc will start training the day after the fight is made. PAc can star in his corny ass movies, lose running for President, or whatever he wants to do, but he won't be fighting any more one armed jacks I can tell you that. PAc will be facing Floyd-the smartest and best fighter pfp today and, Pac won't be facing some one armed old, inferior, weight weakened past it fighter.

    Floyd will carry out his usual training camp and meet Pacquiao in the ring come May.

    He beat the man that beat Kosta stzu, he beat the man that beat casmayor, he is in Negotiations with the man that beat Cotto, after that he will fight the man that beat margarito. Me personally I think Foyd cant win with you people and thats why you never get what you want but I personally prefer he fight the people that beat the people you want him to fight

    I think it will go both ways which makes for an interesting fight. Manny's rythm isn't predictable. it's spuratic and will cause Floyd troubles finding his own rythm. The jab will be key for Floyd and Pacs in & out, side to side and angles will make it difficult for Floyd to get going with the jab. It won't be an easy night for Floyd or PAC.

    Your right but what happens if pac is taken out of his rythem? Floyd odnt fight in a rythem and that straight right hand is to discourage and take you out of your rythem

    Cotto's jab is good...he used it and it worked well until PAC adapted and started comign over the top with his right hand to keep Cotto honest and Cotto showed good movement...especially in the end. PAC just off set his orthodox boxing style with his own footwork and movement.

    False. Cotto was moving but he also gets careless with his movement and WHEN he would stop and stand still, is when Pac would flurry. When Pac threw his hands Cotto got hit and then tried to react. It had nothing to do with Pac adapting. He did the same thing the whole fight. Cotto's jab was working, he just didn't have enough movement, defense or stamina to keep Pac off of him.

    Cotto's movement was the same as it was late in the margo fight. Get beat up on the south side of the ring. Circle clockwise and then stop at the East side of the ring.....get beat up. Then circle clockwise (jogging pretty much) and then stop at the North side of the ring.....get beat up, then circle clockwise all the way around to the west side of the ring and stop, get beat up......on and on and on

    Cotto also has shorter arms than PBF and slower hands. The jab from PBF will bother Pac much more than Cotto's did he will be able to land it much more than Cotto did.

    His speed in September actually looked much better than it was in his previous fight with Hatton. I was really surprized to see it was a notch above and I basically feel the time he took off was necessary for him physically...

    147 is also far from heavy for Mayweather now... He fits the size perfectly and has very little body fat carried on his frame.

    Cotto is just small, period. He's like Hatton's size. He looked much smaller then Clottey and Margo, he was smaller then Mosley and looked about the same size as Pac. Floyd is bigger then both of them, and stronger too. Cotto never imposed his will on an elite fighter after he left 140 (except Judah, but what does that say)

    Dude, when later in the fight?

    When a fighter goes into retreat and throws a jab simply to survive and keep a guy a way and doesn't follow that jab up with movement or another punch, a PROFESSIONAL fighter at the level of Pacman is going to hit him back. It had nothing to do with Pac ad******g, it had to do with Cotto becoming a non-threat.
