    Exactly a guy who started at 108 pounds. Was a 25 year old featherweight just destroys cotto at welterweight.

    Pacquiao climbed 9 ****ing weight classes and put down an A level welterweight with single punches.

    Floyd would have KOd Pac if Manny fought like a man and not worried about his health. Manny was going to get KOd by counter but a Pac is a wussy and gave up. Pac needs to be a man like Maidana and actually fight Floyd.

    I think that had more to do with Cotto coming to fight, looking at it Manny shelled up after the first big counter he took, Miguel fought hard all 12rds.
    Cotto is also a better technical boxer with a better jab. So he found more room to engage and get into distance. Pacquiao doesn't really have a jab and got whitewashed basically.

    Cotto was willing to go out on his shield almost got dropped in the 12th.
    Pacquiao got jumped on early and looked timed in all but 2rds.

    No doubt, because Pac was a bigger puncher in that weight class.

    That's still not a one punch KO artist. Nobody is questioning Pac's power, no doubt he's a big puncher.

    Floyd at 130 was a bigger puncher than 147 Floyd. Both he and Manny were in their primes back then. You keep talking about a younger Pac and not a younger Floyd.

    I can agree with this. We don't always see eye to eye but you're a respectable poster.

    You're calling me an idiot? Did it not take 9 to 12 rounds for Pac to KO a welter? Floyd didn't face Pac at 130 so his power there is irrelevant.

    pac use to be 106

    and the fact he had cotto down 2 times with ONE shot speaks volumes for his power
