Will politics come into play if Pac vs Cotto goes the distance?

Probably not. I don't figure it'll go the distance anyway, but I don't think it will be a corrupt decision if it does.

 

Both are Arum fighters, so I don't think so either.

 

Thats the one thing I'm worried about, if it goes the distance and Cotto hasn't dominated Pac than Pac is going to get the decision. You know Arum wants Pac to win this fight.

 

What?? Wasn'T Cotto/Clottey promoted by Arum also....Look what happened there.

 

I didn't see no shame in that. I thought Cotto won the fight clearly.

 

Pac will win based on output alone..

 

Thats fine, but it was very controversial.
Do you think Cotto/Pac wont be??

 

No worries; this one won't go the distance. Pac is going to find out early that Cotto ain't Ricky Hatton, or old and dehydrated Oscar.

I think one of the keys here lies in the way both men are approaching the fight. I get the impression that Pac thinks this is a relatively easy payday against a fighter who may be on the slide. Cotto seems to be approaching it with a "**** you, watch this" attitude.

 

I don't think Jennings was a tune-up. I think that was just a regualr old ass whoopin':yep

 

Good question, we're all expecting a ko but Cotto's style might lead toward a decision. As in the Mosley fight Cotto can reverse his go forward style to fight on the backfoot, prolonging what otherwise might be a shorter fight.

I can see a controversial decision happening because of a close bout but I don't see a robbery happening. In my eyes if Pac lost to Cotto in a close bout that would be almost like a win, considering his size and where he started from.
