"Speed Kills" IS Bull****...

[S A M U R A I]

Do you believe Mosley beat Cotto? I mean Mosley admitted the younger warrior was too much for him that night!

I do respect your opinion on the speed kills thing though. Hey maybe you are right and Cotto will loose cause of Pac's speed.

Likewise, I respect your opinion and if you're right I'll admit I was wrong.

I thought the Shane-Cotto fight could have gone either way but I have no problem with Cotto winning that one. Come to think of it, I might watch it again soon and re-evaluate it.

Timing and precision is what kills....

You will understand come Nov 14.

speed does kill, but when your opponent outweighs you by 10+ lbs on fight night and he's as skilled as cotto, it's not a fight you are gonna win.

D, I understand what you're saying but I'm not convinced. You won't change my mind because I think Pacquiao is better than Cotto. No disrespect to Cotto though, he's great.

But Most people don't see Manny's punches coming. That's why they lost. Ask Diaz, Oscar, Hatton, Marquez, pretty much anyone he's fought. They will all tell you the same thing -- Manny is brilliant at catching you off-guard and he's way too fast to deal with. Well, if they're being honest like Diaz (I love Dave's honesty), that's what they would say.

Mosley and Judah are not very similar to Pacquiao. Judah is a mental midget who crumbles after four rounds and throws mostly single punches. He is nowhere near the same league as Pacquiao. Some people thought Shane beat Cotto.

I am not trying to change your mind. I understand where you are coming from, and I also believe that Pac is a great fighter. I am just tired of hearing the "speed kills" phrase that is said on NSB at least 50 times (or more) a day. Speed is a good asset in a boxer, but there are too many other good assets out there that can tame an opponents speed.

Cotto will suffer the worst beating in his life just like barrera, morales, dela hoya, diaz, hatton.... It will be like all over again with the excuses saying "oh well cotto was shot after maragarito" etc. etc.

yes... I thought both would be too big... turns out both are idiots... dlh for not rehydrating to 165+ lbs and hatton for fighting with no defense.
