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

    You're right Boo, I'll be shocked if this fight goes to the scorecards.

    Pac gets accused of slacking off in training in every fight. Pictures of him at the club, singing karaoke, but in reality he trains hard in a laid back style which leads him to be relaxed when he comes into the ring.

    I dont think so. But i do however think it will come into play for Marquez/Mayweather.

    It seems weird that people are already talking about Pac fighting other people ... assuming that he's going to blast Cotto out the frame.

    I think Pacman would win the decision because of volume of punches if it came down to it. But for politics i doubt it. If anything if the fight is corrupt Cotto wins to set up a super fight Cotto-Pac 2.

    I don't know. Pac is looking to retire so it would be better for Arum in the long run if this was a very close fight either way or a Cotto victory. Either one SHOULD get Mayweather next.

    I think something is going to go down ... Cotto vs Mayweather would be huge especially if he gets a win over Pac and then starts calling names after the fight. Pac vs Marquez would be huge especially considering that Pac is the lineal champ in that division ... Marquez can go for his 2nd or 3rd lineal title ...

    That would be horrible. If so it would be another gift for Pacquiao. His star status and #1 spot sure helped him in the Marquez rematch.

    I don't think so, I mean I would hope to believe so, but everybody in boxing wants Pac vs. Mayweather, so you simply can't overlook that.

    I think so....curious as to who the judges will be...no Filipino or
    Puerto Rican judges nor female.
    Bring some seasoned and fair judges along with a good referee....possibly Bayless.

    Las Vegas is Manny territory !!!!

    Anyways Cotto will have him belly up in the 7th !!!!:lol:

    The Freddy Roach **** going on has my ears perked up. Sounds like the stereotypical mistakes made by a big name fighter before they get a knocked on their ass. It may be all talk but i dont think Freddy would be whistle blowing if he wasnt truely worried. He has seemed to be professional in the past.
