    i agree cotto will have to knock pacman out to win mayweather has already beat j.m.m and if this fight goes to the scorecards cotto has no chance because boxing is all about money and the bigger more money fight is mayweather/pacman.it's just like W.E.E it's all plan and b.s. at times. i would much better see mayweather proof himself fighting a true 147lbs. fighter because i can't give hime his props fighting all this smaller,older fighter like baldamir, gatti, oscar, hatton, and now marquez the only guy he fought recently is judah that's just my opinion. what do you think?

    nice video as always.
    I am Filipino, but here is my objective analysis on why Pacquiao wins. (If you believe a Filipino can make an objective analysis with regards to pacquiao)

    Size factor:
    You state that Cotto is bigger and stronger than manny, and eventually that will begin to tell. However, people said the same thing about the Hatton fight, and if you look at that fight, during the weigh in, even british fans said to themselves - hatton is not really bigger than pacquiao...
    I think you will see the same thing here as well. In terms of measurements - they have even reach, cotto is a little taller, etc. size is about even. So I do not think size will be a factor. I think manny moving up in weight, it is the case, of his promotoers in the philippines starving him to fight in weights under neath his weight. at 5'6 1/2 he was tall for a featherweight. His true weight is probably lightweight or jr. welter. thats why people seem to be tricked over and over into thinking - this time he is going too high, because they see he fought at featherweight. But since he is probably a true lightweight or Jr. welter, fighting a true welterweight is not a stretch for him.

    Taking a punch: although it is true that cotto has been in with big punchers and has not been knocked out, so why would pacquiao be able to knock out cotto? I think the key is getting past the defense. Mosely couldnt get past Cotto's defense. Clottey has 40 fights and only 20 KO's - a tough strong guy, but not an elite KO artist. Pacquiao, with his speed, volume and weird angles, can find a way to land the flush shot. The flush shot is the key word. Mosely, Margarito, if they unloaded a nice flush shot, they could have knocked out Cotto too, but they didnt because Cotto has good fundamental defense. Pac has a way of figuring guys out and knocking them out. Remember, Barrera, Morales were never knocked out before Pacquiao. The same punch that knocked out Hatton would have knocked Cotto out too.

    Training: Pacquiao has better trainer and better sparring partners. Pacquiao's main sparring partner, Shawn porter, is an undefeated light middleweight. Cotto does not have any sparring parters as strong or fast as Pac. Some of them are actually kind of small. Also Cotto's corner is in disarray and inexperienced, compared to Roach.

    Recent History:
    Finally, Cotto has been is some wars of late, and that has to affect a fighter.He had a tough fight with Clottey just 4 months ago. On the other hand, Pacquiao has not been even had a bruise in almost a year and a half.

    Kind of long, but that my analysis of Pac vs Cotto.


    keep up your good vids.
