Manny Pacquiao-Miguel Cotto is Already a Hot Ticket

[Puya]

let's not forget that the fans from both camp will enjoy this. Cotto and MP were professional and respectful to each other. MP got a loud cheer from Rican fans when he watched Cotto Clottey fight. Im sure Cotto will get the same treatment from pinoy fans as well so there is no need for hate remarks...Lets just enjoy this, this is good for the fans and good for boxing. Forget FMJ this is not about him...

Great post

I don't beleive he is overrated. People kind of look at his last 2 fights and forgets what he has done during the rest of his career.

His last 2 fights do not define what Pacquiao has done in boxing, it just raised his superstar status and popularity. Everybody knows that DLH was drained and old but it was his decision to fight Pacquiao under those circumstances and Pacman took advantage not only on that but on DLH popularity to raise his own. Smart move if you ask me. Then there's the Hatton fight. Do people forget that Hatton spend a lot of time in the P4P top 10 list and Pacquiao destroyed him in 2 rounds??? But lets take away these 2 fights and you will still see a great resume with 6 victories over 3 future hall of fame greats and considered at those moments as part of the p4p best also, (Morales, Barrera, JMM) not to metioned that 3 of those victories came via KO. If you add to this, that his pro debut was at 107lbs you will have a resume that a lot of current Hall Of Fame boxers will envy.

Whether or not he will be successful at WW is yet to be seen but Pacquiao has earned his right to enjoy the popularity that he has and the rating (#1) of the current P4P best is very well deserved.

Boxing fans anticipate a Pacman/Cotto bout is more exciting and money's worth than the trash talking Mayweather and Marquez Fight.

Possibly, but for lovers of the sweet science in its purest form, the Mayweather-JMM bout is mouth-watering. It's the 2 best technical boxers today going at it.

this is true but thats not what fans want meaning with mayweather it's pac, cotto, mosley or nothing. Also mayweather is going to tax that ass too. With the pac and cotto fight it's a 50/50 fight where we know were going to see a war. Cotto wins my opinion

[SceneSpectator!]

Because when the true P4P king and the best WW warrior collides each other is hard to ignore!

When has DLH ever been KO'ed??!?? If middle weights aren't KO'ing him hes not getting KO'ed by a lightweight even weight drained.

Agree!!! ODLH had and will never be KD because you know why? Look at his last fight with Pac, he was thinking in his stool at 8 rounds that he felt going to be KOed at 9 rounds by a LW "midget" as the same manner he did to DDiaz, and the best way to avoid much embarassment, is to QUIT! NO KD much more no KO of course!!! hahaha!!!

DDiaz shouldn't be KOed at 9 should he opted to quit at 8, and people would say Pac could not even KOed DDiaz! Brilliant move for ODLH!

dlh was ko'ed by the greatest middleweight ever. With a wicked liver shot.

Manny is going to win this fight via technical knockout in round 8 via Miguel Cotto suffering a deep wound above his eye. Pacquiao will then go on to win the election and fight Shane Mosley at 143 and will be introduced as, "7 Title Belt Holder in 7 Divisions, Pound for pound King, The Honorable Congressman, Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao!

He will beat Mosley via unanimous decision. Due to Floyd Mayweather's reluctance to fight Manny, he will announce his retirement. Floyd, with IRS behind his back will commit suicide by calling Pacquiao out and losing an 8th round knockout via a left hook.

Pacquiao will then announce he will retire for good and serve his constituents. Amen!

Oh! As to Cotto, he sees himself on the canvass hence his announcement of an early retirement. You know the drill, right ODLH and Hatton?
