Yeah, hope and pray that Cotto wins this fight, because if Pacman takes this, Floyd will be the usual b side again and he can't do anything about this. Floyd will be lucky enough to get 45% from a Pacman fight...

Filipinos in the states are not the ones who's living off food stamps! Most of them are professionals or have well paying jobs and can afford to do some shopping and ******** binge in Vegas...

When it comes to negotiating fights, Cotto doesn't seem to have problem and wil probably accept the lowest % against PBF but we all know that Pacman and PBF will both be demanding a higher % to fight each other and thats going to be a huge obstacle specially when both boxers can choos from a variety of boxers that will still pay them decent money, not the same amount as facing each other, but decent.

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.
A great post from a Cotto fan, why can't be like you? I want to send some green ks to you but I need to spread it around first. Are you taking rain checks?

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...
I beg to disagree homie, the only thing that the Pac and Cotto fans agree on is if it was about Floyd. Check this thread out, 19 pages and counting and you'll see a Cotto fan bashing a Pac fan and vice-versa, and it usually drags on forever, but when somebody post something positive bout Floyd, the Pac and Cotto fans unite like they were long lost brothers, fighting against the evil empire! LMAO!

I'm just tired of people going at each other not because of their boxing opinions, predictions and knowledge, but going at each other in offensive manner against their contries. Sorry Gopi if i quoted you on this because i do realize that you are responding to another ****** an you have the right to defend your self and countrymen but most of the ****** posts in this forum, if ignored they will end up stopping the nonsense.
This is actually a forum that i enjoy and have fun with while learning alot of boxing from everbody but if there is something i really hate is the word and action of racist and you can find this at the maximum expression in these forums. I realize that we dont live in a perfect word but sometime it just get ridiculous!!!!
And i'm not saying this because of Gopi, (just used his post as a example when he was defending from another post).
I'm Puerto Rican, and i'm saying this for all the Puerto Ricans, Pinos, Mexican, Black, White, Asian, European, Latin etc.... that post here in a racist form.
CANT WE JUST STICK TO BOXING!!!!!!

The purest boxing pundits loves the technical side of boxing, unfortunately, they are a dying breed which is nearing it's extinction. The casual fans are what the promoters been courting to sustain whatever momemtum boxing has gotten from the few great fights in recent years, and the best way to win them over is put up a thrill-a-minute, non-stop action, do-or-die fights, and the Pacman/Cotto fight fits this description. This is where we see the glitz and the glamor side of boxing. People from all walks of life, including sports, showbiz and political personalities rub elbows.
This fight is definitely IT...
