Did anyone see the Cotto vs Pacquiao fight?
If you didn't here is the basics caution SPOILER first couple of rounds, actual viable boxing match where Cotto and Pacquiao were in a somewhat even match, though Pacquiao was getting the better of it. Next couple of rounds, Cotto was basically a moving punching bag for Pacquiao Last round, same as the other rounds, except the ref stupidly stopped the fight instead of giving Cotto the dignaty of going the full 12 rounds. Real shame that Cotto has that KO on his record now, because he should of been allowed to go the full 12 rounds. All the props in the world to the top pound for pound boxer in the world. -------------------- Brand new 6gc owner! (sort of 2011)

I watched it and I think it was worth waking up at 4 am to watch it (I also like watching the undercard fights; props to Rowland for his endurance against JC jr.).
I don't blame the ref for stopping the fight either. Sure, Cotto was enthusiastically back-pedaling, but he must show some fighting back or the ref will just call it. How does one fight someone with the speed and talent of Manny? Pacquio vs Mayweather will be one for the history books. -------------------- ![]() "Remember, amateurs built the ark and professionals built the Titanic. But revolutionaries built the Celica!"- Me |

I actually think Cotto was a tougher match up than Mayweather, for Mayweather, Manny just needs to chase him, which nobody wants to see. He can hit from most if not any angle and still be effective, which is what is needed to outbox Mayweather. If Mayweather were to actually buckle down and give Mosley his fight, I honestly see Mosley demolishing him. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
