I think its fair to say that its his most important fight, but will it be his toughest? Cotto has gone to hell and back in previous fights so he has had his fair share of tough battles. Manny is the P4P king and brings so much to the table but he is the smaller man yet a fast and strong small man that has brought his attributes up in weight so well. With Manny being the betting favorite and so many people favoring not only a Pacquiao win but a stoppage win, will he be Cottos toughest fight?

Yeah i ask because many people think Pacquiao will stop Cotto. only one man has done that so if people think Manny will stop Cotto then i wonder how tough this fight will be for Cotto if thats the general consensus.
You have to say no considering the beating he took from margarito. But you also have to consider that manny may lay an even worse beating on cotto. The fight will tell us alot about cotto and also alot about manny.
Got some previous similar discussions here: link --> Do you think PAC will inflict the worst beating ever on Miguel Angel Cotto? - In 2003, PAC inflicted the worst beating on prime 29 year old boxing legend Marco Antonio Barrera... - In 2004, PAC inflicted the worst beating on prime 30 year old boxing legend Juan Manuel Marquez, knocking down JMM 3 times in one round and busting JMM's nose... - In 2006, PAC inflicted the worst beating on not so prime 30 year old boxing legend Erik Morales and hold the distinction as the 1st boxer to legitimately knockdown and stop the granite chin Morales... - In 2008, PAC inflicted the worst beating on prime 32 year old boxing champion, the durable David Diaz... - In 2008, PAC inflicted the worst beating on not so prime 35 year old boxing legend and 6 division titliest Oscar Dela Hoya in 8 one sided rounds... Oscar quit on his stool then announced his retirement from boxing after this humiliating loss... - May 2009, PAC inflicted the worst beating on prime 30 year old man at 140, the popular British boxer Ricky Hatton by knocking him down twice in the 1st round and knocking him out cold in the 2nd round... There's a high probability that Hatton will retire from boxing after that loss to Pacquiao...
I dont think so... i think the Margarito Mosley Clottey Torres fights will all, after its all said and done, prove to be tougher fights.... but we will see!
Possibly. Possibly not. The thing is, it is very possible for Pacquiao to stop Cotto. At the same time, the fight could go an entirely different way. We'll have to wait until fight night to see. Cotto has a good record against smaller Southpaws, but this one could very well be different.
