He was moving too much in the Margarito fight that is why he tired but he never had stamina problems against Judah and Mosley.
    Marg is slow and he pressured cotto to take 2 knees.

    so imagine what mannys speed and pressure and stamina will do to cotto.
    Cotto shouldnt run like he did in the marg fight, cottos best offense agains pac is his power.

    I dont think pacs power will hurt cotto, but pac needs to throw punches in bunches w/ good accuracy or he will lose.

      one thing im a say is Clottey was mega huge on fight night and that was a Clottey on his A game, and Cotto won in a close bout, and Clottey is much bigger than Cotto body frame wise, so maybe people shouldn't over-look Cotto based on that fight, that fight with Clottey was probably what Miguel needed to shake off the rust and doubts

        He needs to get set to throw the left hook. You seen how Mayweather caught Corrales with lefts, Floyd was letting then go, where as Cotto has to be flat and set to throw it. By the time that happens, Pacquiao would have either landed a combination or gotten out of the way.

            yea, he will go out on his knees

                Margarito is a big dude you dumb ass and Cotto was moving around too much. Cotto is coming to beat the **** out Pacquiao and pressure the living daylights of your god Pacquiao.

                  Right, I'm not expecting him to lead with the hook. He usually sets up the hook with a right like I was saying since after you throw the right your body is in position to throw the left and you can quickly get it off. When he dropped Corley with a bodyshot he threw the right upstairs to set up the hook downstairs.

                  One thing that does worry me about Cotto is that he does seem fairly open for a straight left.

                    I seriously hope cotto isnt going to pressure pac , cottos best chance is to out-box him and hit pac in the body.

                    If they end up slugging it out, pac would just throw 5-6 punches and move, why would pac stay there and brawl w/ a bigger guy.

                    what made you so mad, the fact that i mentioned cotto took to knees against marg???

                    pac is not my god, he isnt even my fav fighter

                      Cotto should definitely not be overlooked. I guess with their recent performances, it may be easy to do that. Either way, I have Cotto winning this one.
