    It's a bit of a modern day version of that Basilio one.

    Ironically i like the Basilio one better, but that's a great photo Chris.

    Great shot, worth MORE than a thousand words. And there will be one I'd bet of one of Pac's right hands connecting in the late rounds that distorted the face of Cotto as much as Jersey Joe's face off that Louis shot.

    Sums up why we'll be telling our grandchildren about Manny Pacquiao.

    Cotto had to face the best fighter of the decade last night.

    I'm just glad he lasted longer than Hatton.

    I am as much a photographer as I am a boxing nut, and believe me when I tell you that this picture is nothing. If I had nothing better to show for a fight like this, I would throw away my camera.
    Compare this picture to the great ones from the past. (Marciano v Walcott KO to name one)

    It could be the modern day version of the photo that I use for my avatar.

    Probably part of the reason why Cotto's shots had so little effect on him I daresay.

    A beautiful picture Chris, that speaks more than a thousand words about Pac's great triumph.
