    Based on this logic, any fighter when matched stylistically wrong could look mediocre. Everybody has their weaknesses, hell even JMM looked mediocre when matched with another counterpuncher like him just like what happened in his last fight, can we say JMM is a mediocre fighter? No, right? Both JMM & Pac are great fighters, they both earned it. In the end, I think you can't diminish one boxer's greatness based on how bad you think they looked in fights, that's just not right. I think it's better to judge them in the manner of their achievements, how they handle the adversities and how they fought all the way up with all heart...

    Its not really inside info if you view and read spanish media as I do........

    .....if you're pinoy who views and reads Phillipine media, I guess you could say you would have an inside track of info into Manny Pacquiao and his going on's.

    No it is relevant because Cotto was one of the best welterweights out there and he never challenged himself to prove he was the best welterweight and the great fighter he's suppose to be. Pacquiao did however and is the reason why he's being compared to all the great fighters in history.

    It was interesting to note that the last fighter to dominate Pac relied on proper utilization of his jab and height (Erik Morales).

    Manny and Roach admitted they overlooked and underestimated Erik Morales, thinking he only wanted a money fight after losing to Barrera. They really paid dearly for it.

    Will you look at that.. all that counter punches that he took and he's still standing firm.

    But I do believe is just the fact that JMM got Pac's number. That beast have to have some kind of kryptonite. Still to be seen how Mayweather will react to Pac and vice versa.
