I actually think Cotto has a shot at winning this fight, if he sticks to a good gameplan and doesn't take unnecessary punishment like against Margarito (Margarito probably cheated anyway). If you look at Manny's record, he has never fought a TRUE, PRIME welterweight. In my opinion, this is Manny's toughest test to date. Manny has only fought above 140 once, against De La Hoya. By that point in time Oscar was slow, dehydrated, and was not as strong he was at 154, where he could compete even if he was past his prime. By the time Manny got to Oscar at 147, Oscar was no longer the true welterweight he once was. Miguel Cotto at 147 will be a lot different from a deflated De La Hoya at the same weight. Cotto will be a lot stronger than Oscar was, and it will be interesting to see how Manny deals with his power and body work. I say this is a tough fight for Manny because it is only his 2nd fight at welterweight and it is against a champion in his prime at this weight division.
...
shirt is sick 5 & A Dime, coming through with another sick pacman tee. copping this for sure.
.

yes mayweather is trash...blah blah
How bout this? his ATTITUDE is trash. He's disrespectful and sure, he's a great boxer but this dude sucks as an entertainer. Manny Pacquiao is a great entertainer, his fights are always a pleasure to watch. Mayweather on the other hand fights for the win, which explains his pussy method of "hitting and backing off" shit just gets wayyy boring. like the de la hoya fight, "best fight ever" BS. shit was a borefest but when pac faced him everyone was all into it.

His attitude is the entertainment. His fights never cease to sell millions despite the fact that hes a "boring boxer" as you put it. Basically you and the guys that are agreeing with you rather watch a fight night round 4 brawl than true boxing which is an art.
Manny's legs are crazy, the way he punches he uses all his body first from his legs. So his legs are top priority.
How much you selling wikedwun?
& I have to agree that Mayweather is a great boxer but sucks at entertaining, I watched his past few fights & shits so boring! Everyone who I was watching it with, which was like 20 people were all booing cause he would always run away. But that's how he fights & he won't change since he keeps winning. If I was undefeated by the way I fought shit I would keep doing it.

his attitude is entertainment? being a douche/ ungrateful POS is some WWE shit not world class boxing . hes the kanye west of boxing, most of the people in the stands are always against him. cant wait for the day he loses. it'll be a great day. i agree true boxing is an art, but as u watch/ pay for a fight, you expect to get your moneys worth. Mayweather doesnt give it. its not that i wanna watch fight night in person, its just this dude needs to step it up and take risks

Ali was cocky. It sells man whether you want to admit it or not, boxing would be boring as hell if it werent for the diversity of personalities. Mannys personality is boring to me but he is entitled to his humbleness. Two humble fighters is a boring fight though. You need a protagonist and antagonist.

I would have to disagree with this. Boxing is what happens IN THE RING, most people who watch these fights don't follow the boxer out of the ring so their personalities really doesn't matter. When the fighter steps in the ring, do you really think he's humble? His whole personality changes, the ring & outside the ring are two different places. When he's in the ring the fight personality & adrenaline comes in.
Yes being cocky sells but honestly if I never seen Mayweather fight before & saw his interviews & him being all cocky I would think he would want to go out there, beat the fuck out of the other guy, and just go at it 'til the end. But I would obviously be wrong. Most people who appreciate Mayweather are the boxing enthusiasts, the people who love watching THE SWEET SCIENCE instead of people just going at it.

Personalities meaning the interview and weigh in hype but I feel you.

Yeah, I understand that. But all in all it comes down to the style, not many people watch the interviews/weigh ins they usually just wait for the fights.
People come to watch what happens inside the ring, not outside.
Mayweather, he doesn't bring much excitement but whenever he throws a punch people are usually like OOOHH AHH since they know, even though he runs away & shit he still has the power to knock a guy out. Mayweather is one of a kind in this day & age of boxing.. I would love to see the 2 best fighters in the world join in the center of the ring.. I'm obviously talking about Pacquiao & Mayweather.
