Pacquiao-Cotto: What happens to Manny if he gets knocked out?

pac54545By Manuel Perez: This Saturday night WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto goes up against Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The bout will be held at a catch weight of 145 instead of 147, and Cotto’s title will be on the line for the fight. Many boxing’s experts are saying that Pacquiao will destroy Cotto and will be too fast for him.

Another class of experts, are saying that Cotto’s power and natural size advantage will be too much for Pacquiao to withstand and that the Filipino star will lose the fight. You can put me squarely in the latter category. I see Pacquiao losing the fight, and losing big time by a humbling knockout. The loss will have its effects on Pacquiao if it is as bad as I think it will be. It’s one thing losing by a decision, and quite another matter to be knocked out brutally.

Pacquiao will have to go back to square one and consider his options. What do you do when you’ve been pasted by one of the best fighters in boxing ? Maybe Pacquiao doesn’t lose any credibility with boxing fans. Some of them may see Pacquiao as a courageous individual for moving up in weight and fighting Cotto, a bigger and stronger fighter. Pacquiao would seem to have the perfect excuse if he were to lose.

Okay, so I see Pacquiao taking a horrendous beating at the hands of Cotto, a beating that leaves Pacquiao bloodied, battered and with numerous cuts on his face around both eyes and a busted nose. The healing from this beating will likely take a considerable amount of time. Pacquiao won’t be able to just walk into a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. or some other popular fighter for another mega fight any time soon you would think. Pacquiao will need to lick his wounds, lay low and get better and figure his options.

If I’m Pacquiao, I would go after a rematch with Juan Manuel Marquez or maybe try to coax Cotto into fighting me again. What harm is there in facing the bull again? As long as Pacquiao isn’t wiped out too quickly by Cotto, I think boxing fans would be interested in seeing it happen again. I know I would. I would be there at ringside with my camera and laptop following every second of action.

I don’t of course see the result being any different than their first fight, but it would still be interesting all the same. You got to give Pacquiao his chance, don’t you? Let him risk fate a second time, even it means that he’s pounded black and blue. It’s all about trying to get revenge and give boxing fans their monies worth.

It’s all for the fans. Okay, so Pacquiao fights Cotto again, and probably gets torn limb from limb and then we’re back to the starting point. What does Pacquiao now do? Well, he could always run for political office in the Philippines. I don’t know if Pacquiao would be as popular with two consecutive beatings under his belt, but it’s worth a try. If Pacquiao gets knocked out twice in a row, the chances of a third fight between Pacquiao and Cotto would seem unlikely.

Boxing fans won’t want to see Pacquiao get beaten up again if it means they have to pay money to see it. I’m backing Pacquiao for a third fight. Pacquiao can count on me for being there to watch it. Like always, I’ll have my trusty laptop and camera at ringside to follow every second of action.

    Stupid writer.

    You could have concluded your article with “What if?” as it is instead of your one sided analysis and prediction which has been proven to be DUMB.

  • Ondoy14 says:

    Hey, where’s your follow up article? im so eager to read it. :D I’m sure you are eager to write one also IF COTTO WINS. Now where is it?

  • Robert D says:

    Your prediction – epic fail on all counts. Cotto all bloodied and bruised. PacMan stood there and took everything your man had, and fired back in kind and then some. Your fellow Latino had to run since he found out and go into survival mode. PacMan was going to chomp him like a power pill.

  • Mel says:

    Dude — you did know that Pacquiao was the shorter one with the beard, right?

  • Ant Banks says:

    Manuel Perez is a genius!!!

  • jemiah33 says:

    Let me edit what he said on the fourth paragraph of his article:

    “Okay, so I see COTTO taking a horrendous beating at the hands of PACQUIAO, a beating that leaves COTTO bloodied, battered and with numerous cuts on his face around both eyes and a busted nose. The healing from this beating will likely take a considerable amount of time.

COTTO will need to lick his wounds, lay low and get better and figure his options.”

    What a s*%#*d writer!

  • Archer says:

    Phew! what a match and as usual it went the opposite way as Manuel Perez predicted. I like this guy. Just bet the opposite way and you will win.

  • Wacky Jabber says:

    What happens to an alleged boxing expert when he has been exposed as pitifully ignorant? He changes his name from Manuel Perez to something else, goes to Timbuktu and starts a new life as a cooking expert.

  • Basang68 says:

    Your article is mesianic in every details and how bloody and one sided the affair would be, it’s just that you interchanged the name of the warriors.Cotto was the bloodied one and Pacquiao was the stronger faster boxer. What now man, stop quacking as a duck, if you’re not sure then keep it for yourself. Lick your pride.

  • MP vs Fraud Jr says:

    WHAT HAPPENS TO MANNY IF HE GETS KNOCKED OUT ??? — What will happens is that you will LOSE YOUR JOB as a writer…Good thing it was the other way around…

  • lol says:

    I should have put a bet if manny wins vs cotto you manuel perez will be the next opponent of manny so we can see you face smash big time. you better stop writing.

  • ha ha ha says:

  • Anonymous says:

  • jimmy arbuckle says:

    and another failure

  • boxing fan says:

    if he get knock down, then he will get up again, and still be manny paquiao who is not scared to fight a bigger boxer than him. he’s been knock out twice so im sure he know’s the feeling. and because of that knock out he will continue to evolve to become a better fighter ih his prime. don’t forget this is manny paquiao era. cotto is just another dust that need to be sweep away.

  • Julio Valiente says:

    What will happen to you if Cotto get knocked out? My suggestion is go to your room lock it then, BANG!!!!

  • qtip says:

    LOL i didnt even have to read this one because i know what it’s about.
    anyway MANUEL PEREZ, ask yourself this.

    What would YOU do if Cotto loses? now thats an article i would love to read.

  • joeboxer22 says:

    this manuel perez guy is an idiot, but still entitled to his opinion i guess…already speaking of the results of a rematch, prior to the 1st fight is just plain ridiculous, as is the writer

  • neukid says:

    If Manny loses Iam sure he will be laughing his way to the bank with more than 20 mil dollars in his pocket and you mr. perez will be back on your computer pounding away an amusing article for us to enjoy. Thank you.

  • roy says:

    perez dont go into shock,when manny ko cotto in the first round or within the 4th round.cotto believe his fans ,and didnt train 110% ,manny also do,so he even better that the fighter that ko hatton.

  • jhon foreman says:

    how many pilipino boxer loose to a puertorican boxer, one example Flash Elorde

  • jhon foreman says:

    I am not sure if it was two years ago when one of Roach favorite boxer loose to a puertorican.Actually the fight was stop in the six rounds.

  • baklakakc says:

    @ Manuel Perez
    Pacquiao will always beat JMM, period.

  • baklakakc says:

    @ OrigBatangueño
    advice to baklakakc, do not post things like that, you are showing how big of an idiot you are. lol.
    ==================================================
    got a message for you:
    Magsama kayo ng nanay at tatay mong BOBONG UNGGOY na PURO TABA ANG LAMAN NG UTAK. Nasa lahi yan kaya ingat lang pre. LOL.

    @ Manuel Perez
    Pacquiao will always JMM, period.

  • August says:

    No way Pacquiao will fight Marquez again, it doesnt make sense because JMM is too old and too slow for him.

  • Your Son says:

    Tsk tsk tsk… were you been reading your own articles Dad?! I hate you! You are a disgrace to our family. See what you wrote on this article:

    Does Cotto Have a Chance to Beat Pacquiao? (http://www.boxingnews24.com/2009/06/does-cotto-have-a-chance-to-beat-pacquiao/)

    You are just making stories and stup*d sh*t!

    I HATE YOU DAD! DIE!

  • Your Mother says:

    How quickly your opinon changes…

    Here you write how Cotto has no chance at beating Pacquiao

    http://www.boxingnews24.com/2009/06/does-cotto-have-a-chance-to-beat-pacquiao/

    Now you write how Pacquiao is going to get beat not once but twice by Cotto.

    You’re pretty lame, zero credibility. Just give up man, you hate on all these accomplished boxers, what have you done with yourself other than write crappy articles?

    -Your Mother

  • Cad eh says:

    Most boxing writers have their pictures shown on their article written. Mr. Perez, can you show off your picture on your next article? We want to see if your article reflects what your writing. Come on, be brave. We know you’re not that ugly.

  • Manuel Perez says:

    am sorry i have a small dick.

    i just hate the pacman. :)

    Manuel Perez

  • angelus says:

    Who the hell employed this guy?
    Give him a huge favor and just fire him for making such horrible predictions, clearly he lives in LaLa land. Let him dwell in his own fantasy’s . Boxingnews24 your site should be bias when doing your so called news not this onesided article.

  • irvin2030 says:

    you call yourself an expert? nobody knows you.. nobody cares what you has to say.. we just read your articles to see how stupid a human can get AND call himself an expert..

  • Adam w says:

    I reckon manny will get destroyed by cotto but i dont think and i hope he wont try to use any excuses because after maywhether i’d say cotto other than say williams is second p4p and why would manny go for a fight against marquez i swear ur just so bitter that he lost, fights dont always go the way the viewers see them from the ametuers to the pros ive seen loads of dodgy decisions but u have to get over them as a fighter and as a spectator you cant keep asking what if.

  • Sugar Ray Clay Jones Jr. says:

    Let’s just hope Pacman beats Cotto.

    I want to see Liam Santiago quit writing.

  • executioner says:

    One million dollars for Manuel perez real name and address.

  • Pacscorp says:

    Mr Perez,

    What happens if Pacman gets knocked out? A BIG IF Mr Perez. Nothing will happen come Nov.14. The only that will happen, as Im also ringside, I can eventually see the one and only Mr Manuel Perez, unless you are using an alias, then your press card will be Mrs Perez

  • mike carz says:

    TRUTH HURTS!!!!

  • mike carz says:

    ohhh!!!!! PEREZ was hurt by my comments, coz he deleted two of my previous posts. I didn’t even give him nasty words in that post.

  • mike carz says:

    SAME ARTICLE!!!! MANUEL PEREZ writes this stuff over and over again.

    ANNOUNCEMENT: Search Manuel Perez on google/news and read his previous articles and find out what am i talking about.

  • Cotito_combate says:

    Good Work, Perez!

    At least you are consistent in bashing Pac from the beginning till the actual fight.

    After Nov.14, don’t forget to make a post fight analysis, win or lose. Prepare a thousand of excuses in case you don’t get it right for predicting Pac’s downfall.

  • OrigBatangueño says:

    advice to baklakakc, do not post things like that, you are showing how big of an idiot you are. lol.

  • OrigBatangueño says:

    Wrong question. Not “IF” Manny gets knocked out. It should be “WHEN” or “AFTER” Manny gets knocked out.

    LOL.

  • kuto says:

    manny’s beaten more latinos than the police – george lopez

  • baklakakc says:

    I know you’ve been a longtime JMM fan.

    Its been more than a year since “THE GREATEST BOXER IN THE WORLD” Manny ‘Pacman’ Pacquiao has beaten JMM. So accept the fact that Manny will win this against Cotto.

    1. JMM cant even fight against welterweights.
    2. JMM lost to a rusty boxer like PBF by a mile.
    3. JMM is nobody compared to Pacman.

  • Bakser says:

    Hey! Where’s my post? Got deleted? For what reason?

  • lino sanchez says:

    tsk, tsk, tsk poor mp (manny perez not manny pacquiao the same initials

  • Packy says:

    Juan Manuel Marquez will sleep this time if he fights Manny at light welter or welter weight.

    Look at Manny’s sparring partner Shawn Porter (10-0-9KOs), bigger/stronger (middleweight) and faster!

    He gave Manny the best workout, he was tagging Pacquiao in the beginning but Porter got floored twice in the latter sparring sessions.

    He will be able to take and avoid Cotto’s punches. Shane Mosley and Zab Judah has fast hands but Pacquiao has fast hands and feet! Look out for Pacquiao’s left hand counter when Cotto attempts the left hook on the body.

  • Packy says:

    Same old same old garbage! I’m going to KO you myself Perez! Another cut and paste article from your Ricky Hatton and Dela Hoya prediction?

  • Anonymous says:

    miguel perez is just jealous of pacman the fame that he has.. thats why miguel perez never gets fame he doesnt read the facts right.. he dosnt what too look at.. if pacman is really capable to fight.. for you miguel perez.. quit your job.. you suck..

  • eagol says:

    You’re right in saying that “Pacquiao doesn’t lose any credibility with boxing fans” should he lose to Cotto. The better question to ask yourself is, “What happens to Cotto if he gets knocked out?” – which is more likely to happen. My answer is that “Cotto should retire”. That is because he is all hype, over-rated, just a so-so boxer, a wannabe who miserably fails when face-to-face with elite fighters/boxers. I already know what your excuses for Cotto would be, that he was weight-drained and that Pacquiao was either on steroids or using illegal wraps.

  • GO Canucks GO says:

    I totally agree with Bakser … eh!!!

  • jayvee says:

    i think manuel perez took a lot of beating in the head,from his previous predictions.pacmans power punches in a way echoed in his head that he is suffering from dementia.it’s ironic though that you are carrying the same first name with manny.

  • Phucquiao says:

    Well if Manny loses, then people will just say that he over shot his limit, and that the cliche of great big beating great small, ultimately true. And maybe he fights again maybe he doesn’t. BUt to Filipinos, he will still be a hero. There is absolutely nothing that Pacquiao could do in boxing that will take that fact away. With or without boxing, Manny has proven to be a great man, adored by millions. THe question here my friend, is what happens to Migel Cotto if he gets knocked out?

  • Olive says:

    Ouch two losses against the same guy? Were you the same guy who predicted the Dela Hoya and Hatton victories? Great job right on spot Sportie. Wow Pacquiao must’ve done something really bad to you in the past, oh well like they all say 3rd time is a charm, maybe this time Pacquiao will come out as the victor since he lost twice in a row in your book. Please please write more, we don’t want to jinx this one, do we?!

  • Albert says:

    I’d hate to be the first one to post but I just cannot wait until November 12 and come back to this website never to see the name “Manuel Perez” ever again.
