    I've only watched the first few rounds of the Clottey fight, but Cotto looks nowhere near the fighter he was in the early rounds against Margarito. Way slower, less power in his punches. I don't know if it's because of Clottey's style but Cotto appeared to be a guy who has seen his best days. If that's the case, Pac. will destroy him, even @ 147.

    Because they know Cotto will get knocked out within 5 rounds.

    dude has balls and is confident.

    Freddy and Pac know that they can beat Cotto.

    Cotto has a lot of hardcore fans they cant see that Manny can beat him but he will.

    Both of them had balls to take risks.

    It is a bad move indeed, Cotto definitely has a good shot at ruining a future PBF-Pac megafight.


    I hope all these Pac-Cotto hype are just to lure PBF to the table.

    Coz he is not Floyd? Coz he fights the big fights?

    Pac is the no.1 anti-Floyd, if you understand what I'm saying.

    Pac really doesnt need Mayweather but who wants to see Mayweather when Pac brings the thrill! who wants to be bored by Mayweather when Manny comes looking for the decapitation.

    Exactly, if you have poor defense against Pac you're as good as KO'd going into the fight.

    Really does it matter who fights who first???? A boxing fans would want to see the best fights then the winners of those fights fighting each other. What would be that point of Floyd fighting Pac if Pac cant beat Cotto?? Or what would be the point of Floyd fighting Pac if he cant beat JMM??? I shouldnt matter what order the fights come in if they all fight in the end.

    Void has already refused to fight Pac, Cotto, Margarito, Mosely, etc.
