Cottos jab WINS the fight PERIOD.

c'mon cotto stans, by now you understand that cotto gases right? just look at the compubox stats in the pac/cotto analysis.

^^^Mosley stans are the worst!!!

[Dan...]

But remember the height difference between DLH and Pacquiao. All Pacquiao really hit him with were little leaping rabbit punches and didnt really get the motor running until the 6th and the fight was over before Pac could really open up on the offense.

I don't know how much Manny was holding back in the fight to be honest. He certainly ***ed up Oscar's face plenty.

I still think Pacquiao's power is a little untested north of 140. The Hatton KO was great and I loved it but Hatton's punch resistence was clearly not there. I know Manny has power at WW but I'm not sure if it is the kind of power that can just go in there and blow out a guy like Cotto as many seem to be saying.

c'mon man. just look at the stats from the analysis!!! if you don't believe me believe them.

cotto's activity drops after the mid rounds. its plain to see. I know ya'll got confidence in cotto, but confidence isn't delusion...

cotto isn't invincible... he's not even the best at what he does... but what he does do is be solid all around...

I dont expect Pacquiao to blow out Cotto with sheer power. But I do expect Pacquiao to systematically dismantle Cotto the way he did with Delahoya.

I really liked ESPN's breakdown of the contrast in power between Pacquiao and Cotto in which they mentioned Pac's power being explosive and striking like lightning bolts. While Cotto's power was like a sledgehammer pounding away methodically.

dela hoya's jab is better than cotto's jab but still couldn't connect it because of pacquiao's lateral movement and speed.

cotto isn't invincible... he's not even the best at what he does... but what he does do is be solid all around...

First paragraph is bull**** total stats don't mean ****...boxing is done on a round by round basis.

Second...Cotto is about timing and precision...he doesn't need to throw many punches if he doesn't have too. Also he fights off the back foot late in fights if he knows his opponent has a solid chin.

Last...Cotto IS def beatable...but he is the one of the best at what he does. Being solid all around is what makes him what he is.

Wrong...he couldn't connect cause he was a walking bag of flesh. He couldn't even play "connect the dots" or "Connect four" that day.
