    Roach is smart enough not to let MP go toe to toe w/ MC. Pac is very good in sticking w/ the game plan. In and out, throwing punches from different angles, staying away from the ropes are the keys to beat Cotto.

    The size/engaging is the only possible chance Cotto has and the size issue might not even be an issue, Pacquaio adds weight really well, has no reach/height disadvantages, and Cotto is a little fleshy which isnt solid weight. Cotto brings nothing other than size that Barrera/Morales and he doesnt bring much more than Hatton/DLH.

    I like both of these guys so much..they're both great sportsman and warriors who don't indulge in trash talking and disrespectful behavior..both are a credit to the game, but one of them has to win tonight, and I just can't help but believe that Pac will use his phenomenal speed and explosive pin point punching to mess up, bust up and derail Cotto in 9 or 10. It's a shame that one of them has to lose, but Pac is on the verge of another impressive showing tonight, and will be classified as a bonafide super-champion (he is one already to me) and then will come Mayweather, who I hope he destroys...oh how I hope he will destroy him.
