Why Cotto Will Destroy Pacquiao
July 30th, 2009
By Manuel Perez: I’ve changed my mind about the November 14th fight between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto. I originally saw the fight going for Pacquiao because of figured him and his trainer Freddie Roach would install some medieval catch weight that would leave Cotto too weak and drained to make a fight of it. But now that I’ve had time to look at the new variables with the catch weight only being 145 rather than say 142or 143, I think Cotto is going to wipe the deck with Pacquiao.
Pacquiao should have had a whole face full of defeat with his fight against Juan Manuel Marquez last year in March, but Pacquiao instead was given the win in one of the worst scored fights I’ve ever seen in my life. Just horrible scoring in that fight and no way should Pacquiao have won that bout. At any rate, I’m willing to put that fight behind me and forget about it all while I focus my attention on the Cotto-Pacquiao.
Like I was saying, I think Cotto is going to literally wipe the deck with Pacquiao and give him a lesson he won’t soon forget. Pacquiao would have gotten that painful lesson in his fight with Ricky Hatton in May, but the British fighter lost his fool head and went out there with some primitive caveman fighting style and got taken out. If Hatton had the brains to fight smart in the bout, he would have had the chance to hurt Pacquiao and give him a taste of real power.
I don’t think Pacquiao would have stood up for more than few rounds of Hatton’s big shots without going to pieces under the strength of his shots. But Hatton messed up and went out there like rank amateur and blew his chance. Cotto isn’t going to make that mistake you can bet on it. He’ll take his time, use his jab, right hand and high guard and coast for the first four rounds or so and let Pacquiao exhaust himself a little.
Once the fight gets past the 4th round, Cotto will start attacking Pacquiao’s body with huge hooks and give him a taste of power that he’s never seen before in his career. Pacquiao’s sparring partners and his trainer Freddie Roach won’t be able to prepare him for the torture he’s going to have to ensure at the hands of Cotto. This isn’t going to be a case of Cotto fighting a fighter his own size like Shane Mosley.
This is going to be Cotto whipping on a little fighter much smaller and weaker than him. Pacquiao will be faster, but speed is nothing when you don’t have the power like Cotto has. When Cotto discovers that Pacquiao doesn’t punch that hard, that’s when the beating is going to begin. Oscar De La Hoya said it himself that Pacquiao doesn’t hit that hard. He knows.
The only reason why De La Hoya lost was cause he was too weight drained from coming down from 154. Plus, De La Hoya was an old fighter by the time he fought Pacquiao and was essentially semi-retired at the time of the fight. Okay, so once Cotto realizes that Pacquiao has nothing in the way of power, he’s going to start torturing Pacquiao and beating him like an old rug.
This is going to be much worse than Cotto’s beating of Paulie Malignaggi in 2006 in which Cotto fractured Malignaggi’s orbital bone and beat him nearly senseless. This is going to be much worse than that. I think Cotto is going to make Pacquiao suffer and let him stick around so that he can toy with him for the full 12 rounds and show who the master is.
Now if Cotto is feeling generous, I think he’ll take Pacquiao out by the 7th or 8th round, but I think he’s going to let the fight linger and go the full 12 rounds so that he can toy with Pacquiao like a cat with a mouse. Afterwards, Pacquiao, badly beaten, will be cradled and mothered by Roach as he leads him out of the ring in defeat. And Cotto will be glorified with his career once again back to where it was last year before his defeat at the hands of the powerful Mexican puncher Antonio Margarito.

Prediction – epic fail on all counts. Cotto power failed to make dent in PacMan offense. PacMan stood there and took everything your man had. He had to run since he found out PacMan was going to chomp him like a power pill !
Prediction Fail.
Ey Manuel… How do you like Manny now? See your boy run around like a little dog? And by the way. Nice prediction about the Pacquiao & Cotto Fight. Great results.
Nice prediction you tw@t! hahahahahaha
I think he has some point. Cotto does have the power and speed, but so did the others whom Pacman beat. The question is can Cotto catch up with Pacquiao, because if he can’t he will loose. I’ve seen Cotto’s fights they may be impressive to some, but with the way he fights I doubt if he can catch Pacman. It may go the distance though like all they way down 12 or ten rounds as the case would put it.
I do not think the weight is an issue but rather can Cotto gain enough points, can he avoid being hit, how agile is Cotto. Also if you can see how Margarito defeated him, because if he is fast, Margarito would not have caught up with him.
The odds of Cotto wining right now; is best at 30%, come D-day if he will not be able to catch up with Pacquiao in the first few rounds, he will be defeated. I said first few rounds because that is how I saw most of Pacman’s opponents omen, if they can’t catch up with him in the early rounds they loose.
You see Pacman is like a worm; he always find a way to wiggle out of a tight corner, he flies like a butterfly; it seems that he goes in one direction but actually he does not, all the more confusing eh, he’s foot work is great just great, lastly he stings like a bee; now bees don’t kill you instantly, but the more you get hit, the more stings you get, now that will take its toll.
About going the distance, most people think that Pacquiao does not have that stamina of going all the way, but yes he can go the distance, if you could see how he fought Oscar, it was like he was playing around with him, now don’t get me wrong Oscar is still fast, he is not old, he is just not as fast as Pacman.
I do understand that the last bout with Marquez(a great counter puncher though)and Pacquiao was a bit disappointing but it usually depends on how you see it, their first fight should not have been a draw at all, I see it as Pacquiao’s. Though it is true that Marquez does have the power but he still does not have the agility that Pacquiao possesses, he may be a counter puncher but their last fight; Pacquiao was heavier which made him sluggish, and that made people think that he was not that great.
Name a fighter at the very top of their game who Pacquiao has beat??? Marquez was at the top of his game but he didn’t win them fights as everyone with good boxing knowledge knows.
Cotto will punish Pacquiao, afterall many regard Cotto as undefeated still because of what Margarito did to his hands. Once Cotto attacks Pacquiao’s body he and Roach will find out what power is about, have it at 147 Pacquiao…if your so great you would man up and stop being a pussy.
if want to write something about cotto vs pacquiao just write DUDE!!!! i donn’t care if you predict pacquiao will lose i really don’t!
BUT PLEASEEEE…….. MARQUEZ AND DELA HOYA?
LET IT GO DUDE…. LET IT GO…… GROW UP ALREADY
good prediction, HEY!! MR. MANUEL PEREEEEEZZZZZ WAKE UP!!!! YOU ARE DREAMING!!!! HA HA HA HA HAHA!!!!!!
;;WELL LET SEE ON NOV.14… I’LL PICK PACQUIAO..
Hmmm… ODH is a sour puss. ODH has gone to fight middleweights and of course Pacquiao at 147 could not hit as hard as middleweights(160 lbs at weigh in). . . BUT to dismiss Pacquiao’s power – that’s just trash talk. If Manny doesn’t carry power in his hands – why did Barrera, Morales, Marquez went down. Never mind the other boxers – but the three i just mentioned are tough as nails but Pacquiao managed to put them down. Look out the knuckes of Pacquiao up close – compare them to Cotto’s…
Cotto is not better than Barrera, Morales or Marquez . . . Pacquiao to knock out Cotto before 7 rounds. And if ODH really believes he was drained of his power he should have sued members of his corner . . . but ODH repeatedly claimed before the fight that he is in tip top shape and will give Pacquiao a spanking for not honoring his contract with Golden Boy. ODH got the spanking he needed instead.
7th or 8th round is too late for Cotto, he will be on the floor in the early round…. hahahahahahahahah
I really thought that JMM won the fight after I watched it on live broadcast here in the Philippines, but after watching it another couple of times, Pacquiao undoubtedly won the fight, yes a judge made poor calculation that caused controversy.
The fight should have been scored in favor of Manny by 1 point. The knockdown made the difference.
I agree with most of your analysis, Manuel. However, I believe that Pacquiao’s speed could make the fight a very competitive one. Cotto will need to be disciplined, and start hitting Pacquiao’s body early. Although Manny is very fast, he does not have the best defense, so Miguel should be able to hit him fairly easily. Miguel should concentrate on the left hook to the body and the right uppercut to beat Manny.
Mosley, even at a lower weight, would destroy Pacquiao. Mayweather, too, would give Manny the boxing lesson of his life. Miguel must try not to get caught early, since Manny can be dangerous early in a fight.
what are you saying ?
Cotto is powerful than Pac !?! are you fckng insane?
Pacquiao has a quick hands and agility, Cotto don’t have that.
Pacquiao can throw strong and crisp punches, while cotto can only throw 1 or 2 so why bullshit ?
you know what let the fist do the talking. as ive reading all the article about d upcoming fight ds coming nov 14, all of the writer are biased because on how manny destroyed his oppenent, i think all of them are racist. they belittle mannys race
looking forward to your article after the fight between cotto and pacquiao. what excuses would you be saying next.
hope to hear from you this coming nov. 15. please be here. we will be expecting to hear more from you.
Just like the old sayings: there is no messenger in his own town!
many predicted manny will finish hitman in mid rounds, then many failed..
manny in 2 – 3 rounds!!!!
Don’t agree that Cotto will beat Pacquiao even if for the sake of argument on 147lbs. it is.Pacquiao hard training and sound game plan will offset the advantage per se Cotto is having against him.Remember how badly ODLH and Hatton thought the same way as you about Manny’s capabilities in the ring.Freddie’s new prediction,”Manny will KO Cotto.The truth has been told,FR is accurate in seeing things specially if regarding Pacquiao’s winning strategy.
speed is power…Power is the product of Force and Velocity. P=F.V
Wasn’t it one of Pac’s opponents who commented that due to Manny’s blistering speed during their fight…he actually thought that even Freddy Roach was in the ring banging him up???!
I will remember ur name dude. Go eat your words after the fight!
anyone who thinks, hatton could have punished pacquiao in their previous fight have already conceded, and this writer hasnt?
hey perez! you are a good writer! you know how to attract people’s interest in your column! hating pacman is the best strategy! anyway, you are used to eat your words right? you have been doing this for quite sometime and it has become your way of life! you already ordained youreslf to be a pachater forever! Well, good luck on your chosen career! just remember this: EATING WORDS IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH!
lol even cotto doesn’t believe he can win. Thats why he’s trying to get out of the fight.
funny article. who is this author again? taking everything away what pacman has done.
eayh… that’s why i challenge him that if he is false on what he is saying… he will never write boxing articles again and he will kill his life…
let’s see on nov 14… im looking forward not to see you here again anymore moron!
Is Cotto damaged good? YES. But please include the writer of this article because he’s got damaged brain.
Hey Mr. Manuel Perez, you can put your money where your mouth is, I’m willing to bet that it’s not walk in the park for Cotto when he fight Manny. Cotto could win, but it will be a brutal fight for sure.
why is it whenever manny pacquiao wins, all critics have a reason for the loser?
If cotto wins: it means that he beat a smaller guy. The only thing he’ll have when he beat pacquiao is fame. MOre fame!!! Lots of it.. But it will only show that Pacman cannot fight at that weight class..
If Pacquiao wins: it means that Cotto is not the same after he lost to Margacheato..
So cut it in short- a cotoo wins means he beat a much smaller guy, a manny win means he beat a declining cotto..
What does this mean? Its just like politics, the loser will claim that he was cheated and the winner won unclean..
you can’t hurt what you can’t hit. Think!!!
i wont fight cotto at 147. i want every opponent to drain thier weight. i will run for congress after this fight. i dont want to cry again after a defeat like what happen in first morales fight.
bravo! its always sweeter if many people will be proved wrong after the fight. you guys made pacquiao where he is now. it would be the same mistake you guys predicted during ODLH and hatton fights. I can’t blame you because manny was not supposed to win those fights. Same with Cotto since he is the bigger guy. but i hope you guys won’t get tired of underestimating pacquiao. i bet when pacquiao fights mosley or pbf next, ul stil have ur beliefs and prediction against pacquiao.
Cotto’s nuclear power will be of no use for a target he cannot hit! Dela Hoya and Hatton looked like fools because of what Pacquiao did to them not all the excuses you mentioned. Do you think dela Hoya and Hatton would dare fight Manny if he is not a class over them?
Good. You now admit that 145 lbs is fair for Cotto and he will not be fighting drained and weakened. BUT WAIT.. if Manny wins.. will you admit Manny beats Cotto? Of course not.. you will say Cotto is past his prime. You will think of excuses and still hate the Pacman. You are full of BS. You hate Pacquaio.. so write about other fighters. Oh by the way.. do you still dream of the look on Marquez’s face when he was knocked down 3 times by Manny in the 1st round?
Loosers always makes Excuses
I really love reading an article that is an anti Pacman in any form.
And i would really find it extremely amusing if you Mr. Manny Perez would bet for Cotto and win big time.
I will only believe you that you are really certain that Cotto would win if you have the courage to bet against Pacman.
And if you do that i can salute you and respect you for your astute inteliigence.
Hope you are right in your analysis about this bout ( Cotto Vs. Pac). Good LUCK …..for a very good JOKE…
We haven’t seen the battle yet of the two warriors,pls. Empty your bank and put it on cotto!!!!I knew Manny’s heart is huge than Cotto, Watch the tape of Pacquiao vs Morales when pacquiao got bleed on his face,he stand toe-to-toe to the legendary fighter Morales,Morales is the only mexican beat Pacquiao,he is really tough.but Pacquiao stood strong and fight to the last strength he has,watch the round 12 of the bout. Now,Mr.Manuel “the Idiot” Perez,stop delusion and day-dreaming.after the pacquiao-cotto fight.I hope you will not lose all you Penny.ha!ha!ha!ha!ha!ha!ha!
There are logical explanations as to why Cotto can beat Pacquiao. One, he is obviously the bigger and stronger fighter. This is the same reason Hatton had the chance to beat Pacquiao. Two, Cotto is technically skilled and has a good defense, unlike Hatton. However, remember that ODLH is also technically skilled and has a good defense as well. We all know how Manny dismantled ODLH. For the sake of argument, let’s say that ODLH was weakened by trying to make the 147 lbs weight (the wrong way as many people said). Thus, he was not able to hurt Manny. However, with his experience and defensive skills, ODLH SHOULD NOT have been battered by Manny that much. How was Manny able to dismantle’s ODLH’s pretty face? Through speed. I told my friends many times before the Hatton-Manny fight that whoever is able to get his punches in first will be the winner. Manny got his punches in first and he won. He was able to do this because of his speed and also of Hatton’s carelessness. I will say the same in the Cotto-Pac fight – whoever gets in the power punches first will win the fight. People should not underestimate Manny’s punching power. A sparring partner of both Manny and Margarito once said that Manny punches harder than Margarito. Also, note that Cotto also hunches like Oscar does and the way he puts up his hands is also the same as ODLH. And you know how Manny got through Oscar’s defense. As Ali once said, you cannot hit what you cannot see. While Cotto is definitely the stronger fighter, the question is, will he catch Manny on fight night? Let’s just wait for Nov 14.
why compare pacman with malignaggi????????
manny pacman- 7th title
Manuel Perez- h1n1 title
Just for (MP)Manuel Perez
I really love this site.
I believe everything you said. Your right at the point. How did you score the fight between Marquez and Pacman? Which round did Marquez won? Do you really know how to score a bout? Then I guess maybe the Pacman was given the the win in worst scored fights afterall. And the best scored fight given is the fight between Cotto and Clottey. Good call man.
Do you even know what you’re talking about? Well anyway, maybe Cotto will destroy Pacman afterall. Why? because Pacman will be standing in front of Cotto, not punching, catching every punch Cotto will throw. Yeah. cause that’s how you see it. It’s good to have another side of the story. What a way to predict a fight?
How did hatton won all his fight again? Did he fight differently then? When he fought Mayweather did he fought differently? Wild guess, you’ll say no. But again, it’s Pacman’s fault he finished the fight in 2 rounds. It would have been more competetive if Pacman is as generous as Cotto to let the fight go as far as round 7 or 8. Hatton would have landed more big shots during this fight because after round 2, Hatton will be stalking and stalking Pacman, and he will hit Pacman, why cause as you see like in Cotto fight, Pacman, will be standing in front of Hatton, not punching, catching every punch Hatton would have thrown.
Then again very good analysis.
can i get the guy on you speed dial he may have some special stuff get real lol
You sound bitter.
Sorry you lost money betting against Pac.
Mr. Perez,
You have two eyes coudn’t see who’s the winner!!! Damn you men… you’re totally blind. Remember, its an official that PACMAN is the winner of their last two fight against Juan Misleading Marquez (JMM). In their first meeting with PACMAN, JMM knocking down three times in the first round…. Damn you again..!!!Bert Clements got wrong score card putting 10-7 for PACMAN instead of 10-6 absolutely PACMAN won the first fight. You’re fool men!!!!
Mr. Manuel Perez, in your previous article, you implied that Pacquiao will prevail over (your concluded) weaker and drained Cotto at 145 pounds. Meaning: that Pacquiao is the powerful fighter at this (weigh-in) weight. Then, in this article, you concluded that Cotto will destroy Pacquiao at 145 lbs and “is going to literally wipe the deck with the little Filipino” ! ! ? ?
Wow !. Why the sudden turn around, and then some? With your “new variables with the catch weight only being 145 rather than say 142or 143, ” . . Wow ! ! again.
And: “This is going to be Cotto whipping on a little fighter much smaller and weaker than him.” Hmmmm. Now, you concluded, Cotto is the stronger fighter.
And then you whined about: “a whole face full of defeat with his fight against Juan Manuel Marquez last year in March, but Pacquiao instead was given the win in one of the worst scored fights I’ve ever seen in my life”. Worst scored fights I’ve ever seen in your life ??
Hmmmm, again. I smell something fishy here.
And then you opinionated that : “Pacquiao would have gotten that painful lesson in his fight with Ricky Hatton in May, but the British fighter lost his fool head and went out there with some primitive caveman . . .”
And concluded after the fact that: “. . . If Hatton had the brains to fight smart in the bout, he would have had the chance to hurt Pacquiao and give him a taste of real power.”
Since you already know that Cotto will destroy the Pacman, and you have a very detailed way on how to do it, therefore, I suggest; no, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND, that you apply as Cotto’s trainer and be the “Trainer of the Year” in 2009.
That way you will hit two birds in one stone. One: You will make use of your hate-the-pacman syndrome to a useful endeavor, and, Two: Boxingnews24 will get rid of you.
This is my last reading of your articles. Bye . . , bye . . .Manuelita.
TO EVERYBODY OUT THERE. LET US BOYCOTT THIS ASSHOLE.
Perez-Are you crazy??? Cotto has no power like what Pacman has!! Look at what he did to his recent fight to Clottey. Did he knockout that guy? A big NO!! Infact, he has troubled with Clottey and I know that Clottey win that fight. Now, is that what you called that Cotto is more powerful than Pacman? Yeah your right!, Pacman is smaller than Cotto but look at the victim of Pacman… Diaz, Dela Hoya and Hatton , those are big guys..but what happened? Pacman KO these BIG guys!! Now, look out on how Pacman will kill your big GUY Cotto on November 14, Mr. Stupid Author!! This decade is for Pacman.. He’s a greater fighter, he is a #1 pound for pound king and he will reign as a greatest boxer ever who won 7th title in 7 division!! This is about HISTORY!!
I hope every writer who are betting againts Manny everytime he fights should put their careers and reputation on the line in the event that if Manny wins, they should stop writing their “Stupid Articles” ever in the papers or internet. DARE! I HOPE THIS WRITER GOT BALLS?!
karamba tonto esta perez… i’ll take your bet for cotto ‘lo-diez’ instead of vegas 2 to 1… kuto is slow, one pacman shampoo and all kutos will be wiped out…LOL
Here are my pound for pound list of Pachaters:
1.Oscar De la hoya-Manny whooped his ass.
2.Floyd Mayweather-Manny uncrowned him.
3.Floyd Mayweather Sr.-Manny embarassed him about Hatton fight.
4.Juan Manuel Marquez-Manny made him kissed the canvass 4 times.
5.Shane Mosley- Manny refused to fight him for his is not marketable fighter.
6.Recah Trinidad-The traitor pinoy
7.Liam Santiago-the fat man who says he is a big fan of Manny and then call Manny a fraud,a digraced writer.
8.Manuel Perez-who hates Manny a lot.Of what I remembered that Manny made his fighters kiss the canvass.No credibility as awriter.
9.Mrs Santiago-the mother of Liam whofrom birth spoonfed Liam.She moulded Liam to become a loser.
10.Mrs. Perez-She haS AN AFFAIR WITH ONE OF pACQUIAO’S TEAM BUT IT TURNED OUT UGLY.aha! that’s why Manuel Perez hates Pacquiao so much.
PACMAN HIT DELAHOYA WITH EVERYTHING HE HAD AND COULDN’T KNOCK HIM OR DROP HIM
really? wake up and open your eyes…Manny Paquiao will knock out cotto.During the bout stand at cotto’s corner with some paramedics and surely you can help carrying cotto out of MGM. maybe you can earn some extra money and be drank and sleep…good day..
Pacmanwill destroy cotto like margarito did to him!!!
IF COTTO CAN ESTABLISH HIS JAB EARLY AND MIX UP HIS PUNCHES ENOUGH TO KEEP MANNY FROM BUM RUSHING HIM I DO THINK THAT HE CAN GO TO THE BODY.AND IF HE CAN DO THAT ITS GONNA BE A GREAT FIGHT.COTTOS NO BUM HE CAN ALSO ATTACK AND BE SUCCESSFUL.
Cotto will be the first fighter Pac has asked to come down in weight. Oscar clearly stated after the Mayweather fight over and over again that he wanted to once again campaign as a welter. He fought steve Forbes at 150. Hes the dumb rich vato that thought he was gonna overpower pac at any weight they fought. The real statement should be “All these Latinos gotta stop making Pac gain weight to fight them.” The minimum limit for this fight is only 1 lb less than Cotto’s last official weigh in, and 7 lbs higher than Pac’s official weigh in. Who’s the b*tch or (b*tches)?
@david marcos twas brilliant of u coming up wid those WHOs in there! I agree with u, cotto being KOed by Manny’s speed-of-light punches!
oscar DL WHO YA?; ricky WHO TON?; Now. miguel COT WHO?.. PACMAN will whipped miguel (COT WHO’s?) ass and win his 7th belt in 7th division on the 7th round!!!
let’s have a tweak on the betting, if Manny wins, you die, if he loses, i’ll kill you
thts the problem, cotto focus on body attack his chin is wide open and he will get hit by pacquiao.hi gonna go down because he cant see th punches comming.NOBODY CAN SEE..NOBODY
PACQUIAO KO 6
hey! all pacman haters what you will says if pacman will beat cotto..?? what are your excuses..? i will wait for that…hahaha
Yeah right. Waste of time reading your article. If you can, without changing your mind, hold on to your predictions by fight night, if Manny wins, go hang yourself.
More Muscle (20) = More Puching Power = More Oxygen
Less Muscle (10) = Less Puching Power = Less Oxygen
Cotto: More Muscle (20) + Less Oxygen (-10) = Less Stamina (10)
Pacquiao: Less Muscle (10) + More Oxygen (20) = More Stamina (30)
Pacquiao’s Punching Power (10) vs. Cotto’s Punching Power (20)
Pacquioa = More Stamina (30) + His Punching Power (10)=40
Cotto = Less Stamina (10) + His Punching Power (20) =30
Cotto by early KO if not,
Pacquiao by late KO
And if you have any problems watsover with all the Pac Fan responses, go watch the fight at MGM on Nov 14, shout your name right after the fight, and you’ll find out how good of a writer you are…Goodluck on your prediction Mr. Perez!
Ya right.. dela hoya said pacquiao doesnt punch that hard? Is that the reason why he quit on his stool? Because pacquiao doesn’t punch that hard? Weight drained? What a lame excuse. Besides, haven’t you read the statements Oscar made before the fight? He made it clear that he felt good and strong at 147. So cut the crap.
IF THE COTTO THAT SHOWED UP AND FOUGHT AGAINST MARGARITO SHOWS UP ITS GONNA BE A HELL OF A FIGHT BUT IF WE SEE THE COTTO THAT SHOWED UP AGAINST CLOTTEY,ITS OVER FOR MIGUEL.BECAUSE I THINK WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT THE FILIPINO TYPHOON WILL BE THERE.THIS IS THE FIGHT THAT COTTO CAN SHOW US THAT HE CAN REALLY COMEBACK AND RETURN TO THE TOP LEVEL HE WAS ONCE AT OR SHOW US THAT MARGARITO TOOK EVERYTHING FROM HIM.
Mr. Manuel Perez, i just have 2 questions for you…If you are wrong on your BOLD PREDICTION of this up coming fight, what kind of excuses would you give us readers again? Will you still have the guts to write or make any BOLD PREDICTION on Manny’s future fights? (obviously you will, your just an ordinary writer)…So, i guess you will still keep writing this negative things about Manny huh?! Get another Job!!! better yet, get F$&@ING LIFE!!!
IDIOT WRITER!!!!! YOU DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BOXING!!!!! BIASED WRITER!!!! YOUR OBVIOUSLY PACMAN HATERS!!!!! LOOOOSERS IDIOTS WRITERS!!!!!
Manny fought to a draw, first time with Marquez.
Rematch had even rounds, six a piece. Manny won because of the extra point knock down.
I don’t know why the writer believes that not only did Marquez win in the second fight, but that he was robbed? No way. Marquez lost that fight fair and square. It was good, close fight though.
Against Cotto, it will be a tough fight.
There might be some point of contentions regarding the JMM fight with the Pacman (2nd fight) but always remember Manny was legally cheated by the score card on there first fight by a point which would have given him a win. Regardless of what might have been, what makes Manny a true champ is that he accepts whatever descisions come in all of his fights. You have always been antagonistic with Manny and because of your extreme bias ends up with some illogical conclusions. Take for example the Hatton fight. The reason Hatton failed what that he could not out point Manny had he just stayed at a distance and box. Manny would have rack the points round per round. If he moved in, before he could even start pounding Manny’s body, 3 to 4 punches would have landed at his face. He tried to get to Manny to no avail. It was a hopeless cause. With regard to Cotto, the same is true. Cotto can hurt Manny in the body and perhaps defeat him with his really big punches. But the question is how will Cotto even start to pound Manny’s body when the first order was to find him. It is the ability of the fighter to find Manny that is most important. Unless a fight can devise a strategy of getting close to Manny, no fighter right how will be able to hurt Manny. Even JMM although he was able to land some really really good punches was not able to hurt Manny into submission. Cotto will not find Manny in 12 rounds. Cotto has big punches but slow as a boxer. Without the speed, his punches is practically useless.
I think the PACMAN will KO Cotto within 5 rds because of his speed. When facing a fighter like PACMAN u cant see all the punches coming thats what gives the PACMAN his KO edge. If u cant see the punches coming from different angles u are bound to get caught by 1 off guard and go down. Thats what made JMM go down in the 3rd rd of their 2nd fight, thats what why Diaz went down in the 9th and why Hatton went down 3 times. They all didnt see the punches coming. Its not always the power of the punch that KOs a fighter, its if they can see it coming is what surprises them. Im not saying the PACMAN doesnt carry any power but he does hit harder than most smaller fighters. DLH says PACMAN doesnt hit hard but his golden boy face was pretty much reconstructed after their fight from PACMAN’s “weak punches”. Plus Cotto has to plant his feet to establish any power behind his punches. How can he do that if PACMAN is moving in and out picking him apart and riding his bicycle around Cotto. High Guard? What high guard does Cotto have? The slower Margarito was able to beat him into submission with that “high guard” u speak of. Even though he might of had some plaster of Paris in those wraps. Look @ the less talented Clottey, he took Cotto to a decision and nailed Cotto in the process. I haven’t seen any high guard from Cotto what so ever. The Pacman wont slow down enough for Cotto to plant his feet and hit him with a meaningful punch because we all know PACMAN is a stamina machine. For Gods sake Cotto doesnt even like to clinch meaning PACMAN has even more chances to pot shot Cotto. The only defence he has is backing away from his opponent and eventually getting caught in a corner or up against the ropes where the PACMAN thrives to put his opponents away with combos. I dont how u can see Cotto “wiping the floor with PACMAN” especially with the unrelenting bombardment of PACMAN’s punches coming his way.
Cotto will fall down within 8 rounds…..congratulations for making yourself look stupid with this article…how I wish you enjoy your hard earned notoriety hahahaha….you deserved it!!!lol…
I think you just cant accept the fact that Manny beat Marquez. You had to include it in this article. How can you be sure that Marquez won? there were three judges not one. All three judges have different views of the fight. You and all the televiewers only had one. The judges scored it for Pacquiao (both times since one jugge made a glaring mistake in the first fight). So just let it go. Marquez lost. Watch the fight again.
They always have their reasons every time Pacman beats an opponent. What will be your excuse now when Pacquaio beats Cotto?????
pacman can handle his speed and power even at 150-155 lbs… as what you heard pacman training with de la hoya pacman sparring partners are much heavier than him his sparring partners weighs at around 160 lbs in the name of Rashad Holloway and cordova and both said pacman is to strong ang dangerious for de la hoya!! I dont think Cotto can win against Pacman
All I have to say is Cotto is a good challenger in this November clash, but pacman will eat his power fruit and enjoy swallowing gotto(filipino food).
You said it well Paul. Now this writer has taken Cotto’s side and that’s fine with me but don’t say Cotto is weight drained or washed up if Manny beats him in Nov. 14th.
I hope Cotto feels the same way so he’d put his title on the line and not pussy out.
is pacman being tiedup in this fight. this fight will end fast. pacman will mentally break him down.followed by cotto finding out how hard pacquiao punches are.finally the world will witness paquiao boxing skills.this comment of pacman can’t hard by delahoya is bullshit. most of the time pacquiao wasn’t trying to throw hard punches until he had delahoya on the ropes. notic e the speed of the punches.start comparing the punches speed.delahoya is crybaby and greedy sob
Wake up Manuel Perez you’re dreaming.
pac exhausting himself are you kidding pac is one of the most fit boxer in the game…am ganna ask a question that backs this up name one fight in the last ten years of his carreer that he faded or gotten tired as the fight goes on????????as far as i kno he looks as fresh in the later rounds….and cant take a hit kid your talking about a man who lived in the hardship whos problly recieved more beating than you mom in bed before you were ever born and delahoya said he cant hit den why did he quit if he didnt hit hard….so if he didnt hit hard then stay in and try to one or stay in survival mode for another 3 rounds cause he is hurting thats why and dont say aww he was drained cause he was surely he was ganna kick pacs ass cause he was bigger and he was ganna bully this kid around same with as wat hatton,and critics say but no everyone understimates this lil fighter
pac by ko in 3
note on jmm vs megamanny… i wonder what you so called expert would say if jmm won after shitting on his pants over his total four knockdowns? geez
wat are u serious manny people think cotto has power but i really dont think so i believed his power is overated he had chances to ko clottey but didn’t do he trow 2 punches at a time and if he fights pac that way he is ganna get killed he all kno tha way to beat pac is with long reach to use the jab to keep him at bay but thats unlikey he is almost the same in height and and same in reach and he is too slow for pac i think the only one to ever pefect this was morales and marquez in there first fights….and about this pac losing the second fight with marquez its the similar shit with cotto that hoe should have lost his last fight if not for the knockdown maybe same with pac he knockdown marquez that change the fight in his favor no matter how many people thought he lost the fight cotto should have lost as well
Manny give up two more pounds, make it 147. So you take Cotto’s belt and shut everyone up. It never fails, he keeps blowing everone away and still there are the naysayers. I just hope the fight with Mayweather happens so there will be no more doubt. I think Floyd will price himself out tho. He made a bad move not making a fight with Manny after the Hatton fight. Now his numbers are going to be bad for the Marquez fight and he’ll have to settle for less if a fight with Pacquiao happens.
Just another so called “boxing analyst”, that doesnt know what he/she is talking about.
One of the worst scoring fights ever? Are you kidding me? That doesn’t even come close to the horrible scoring for the Whitaker/Chavez fight. Dude that was a close fight w/ Marquez, it could have gone either way. The knockdown made the difference. Even @ 147 Cotto will fall, like Teddy said “He’s damaged goods”. Pacquiao is way too fast and accurate for Cotto. He will be tougher than Dela Hoya and Hatton but Cotto will still come up short. Pacquiao in 8, MARK MY WORDS!
I dont think you uderstand how Pac fights nowdays, he stunned fighters with his lighting right hook or his powerfull straight left. Cotto can dance for the first 5 rounds if he want to, but Pac is going to press the fight that Cotto will likely to go at it. My prediction is that Cotto will run out gas sooner that 5th round because of Manny’s constant pressure resulting for stopage.
another pac hater bitch like liam santiago.these gays will eventually eat their words after pacman destroyed cotto in the 10th round on nov 14. they will join cotto crying in his locker and may end up having threesome lol!
With your great analysis, so how come COTTO is afraid of betting the belt on the line?
just shut up! pacman will beat them aallll!
Speed + Stamina = Pacquiao until 12rounds
Mauel,
Dela Hoya hates Manny coz the little guy humiliated him.Ruined Barrera’s career who he promotes.Manny won his fights fair and square.I do believe he will ko Cotto in 5.There are just people,for whatever reason, hates Manny’s guts.And this moron Manuel is one of them.Manny is used to being an underdog,but he always wins.He is an all time great fighter and a terrific human being to boot!
nicley written. Pac will fall to the great Miguel Cotto. If cotto can take 10 rounds of cement hands from a much bigger and stronger man then Pac. Then taking Pac’s punches is going to be nothing. Cotto also looked so sharp and quick before he started taking those cement punches that i have no doubt Cotto will be the one with his hand raised in the end. After, Pac will be forced to face his nightmare Juan Manual Marquez.
calzaghe doesnt hit that hard. look what he did to jeff lacey. cotto will not stand up to the intense pressure pacmann will be bringing, cotto will look pretty average, cotto will think pacmann got three arms,
you have all the reason to change your mind ,dude..a gay like you has that attitude..your a girl,so it doesnt surprise me if you change your mind..
liboraci – hates him, or secretly wants him?
Why is Manuala’s last 12 writeups on Pacquiao?…bec. she hates him so much.
As the saying goes:
“Hell hath no fury for a fag scorned.”
doesnt surprise me coming from you mr perez! when you see pacquiao in the ring with cotto he wont look that much smaller.. he can hit hard he shook up de la hoya a few times and ko’d hatton plus the others that have felt the power. I think his in and out of range boxing will defeat cotto and the speed will finally defeat him round 9
Manuela – if you don’t like Pacquaio so much, why are your last 12 articles on the Pound for Pound King?
how silly of me…of course you’re a fickle-minded fag Manuela, that’s why…heheh
You should write columns about GARDENING instead because you sure don’t know anything about boxing. What a DUMBASS!!! You make me sick!!!
just goes to show how shallow your thought process is for someone who’s supposed to be writing an article Manuela…
for the nth time..hav ur usual excuses ready..LOL
“I think he’s going to let the fight linger and go the full 12 rounds so that he can toy with Pacquiao like a cat with a mouse.” – this proves how little you know about boxing as boxers NEVER let the fight go longer than they have to because there’s always a shot of the other fighter getting in a power shot and completely turning the fight around…we get it Manuela…we get it…you hate Pacqiuao and regardless of what he’s accomplished, you won’t give him any credit….yawn.
And as for Manny not hitting very hard why dont you email Mr Hatton and ask him how he felt after a few left right good nights! ey Perez, please tell me this guy doesnt get paid for wiritng on here!!!
pacman is too fast cotto is slow, power is about even, heart goes to pacman, trainer goes to pacman, pacman wins by 5th round ko
Ok Perez we all get it, you dont like Manny for reasons im sure everyone knows! Now as for the fight Manny is going to be far to quick, constant bombardment from Pac will be far to much for Cotto to cope with! He has proved it again and again the weight is not a problem, if anythin Manny looks better moving up in wieght, same spped increased power!
Now if you are wrong and Manny comes out on top can you please on here not go on about cotto being drained or shot or what ever and stop sayin Pac is ducking a list of possible fighters and just say i was worng and Manny was brilliant.
And from then on stop wirting you little Pac Bashin letters and start leaving some either factual or realevant boxing information for me to read!!!
Why Manuel Perez Hates Manny Pacquiao So Much
1) he’s probably juan manuel marquez himself pretending to be something else.
2) he’s wife probably is cheating on him with manny pacquiao.
3) he’s such a loser he doesn’t have a nything better to do.
4) he has some screws lose obssesed with manny paquiao like a stalker.
Advice to mr perez; GET A LIFE!!! TAKE YOUR WIFE OUT TO DINNER OR SOMETHING SO HE WON’T CHEAT ON YOU ANYMORE. THERE IS SO MUCH TO LIFE THAN JUST HATING ON MANNY PACQUIAO. Peace………..
Wow! Nice prediction. I just think you’ll be a Pacquiao believer once Manny TKOs Cotto’s ass. Many boxing scribes said same thing before about a former flyweight champ fighthing the 6 div.champ ODLH at 147lb., after beating ODLH, they said it was a fluke, then came flyweight champ meeting the Hitman, 44-0 at 140lb. You know your boxing, you know what happened. You see, ODLH was suppose to fight Cotto. before he was upset by Margarito. I don’t think Cotto can demolish ODLH in 8 rounds at 147lb like what flyweight champ did. Do you? Don’t kid youself. Open your eyes and stop pretending you didn’t witnessed the last 2 bouts of the former flywieght champ! Now the P4P champ already!
cotto will win. but pacman has to stop dragging fighters down in weight.
Pac-Mans not got a hard punch just speed. Cottos got the power and the reflexes. I know he didnt look that good in his last fight but hell win easy.
Cotto in 9
Now you change your mind about the Nov.14 fight,it simply shows how fickle your mind is,only ladies change their mind freqeuntly. the fight with de la Hoya at 147 is a welter weight not a catch weight,another lie your preaching even though you knew it,post another article with so much lies to make this site exciting.
Manny Pacquiao will knock Miguel Cotto out in six rounds.
