watched the fight when it was reshown this afternoon.
It was quite close early but as soon as manny hurt him he just took total control.
Cotto's face was a mess.

To move up so many weight divisions and have power like that is just insane, dont think i have ever seen anything close to him for ability.
So fast and with power in both hands. He also throws shots from so many different angles.
Amazing to watch the little freak  :D

Hope they can make the mayweather bout now, floyd is a master of not being hit and can bang a bit with the counter punch himself so it would be such an intriguing fight.

If they can i back manny now after watching his last 3 fights he has just stepped up to another level.

In the form Manny is in, he'll do Mayweather up. Mayweather will be sh*tting bricks to avoid this fight. It's OK though: all you have to do is chuck a few million at the c*nt and youre grand.

I think 99.9% of the world would fight someone for "a few million" to be honest mate.

Mayweather is not soft though , an thats why he picks his fights, He swerved Mosley dont forget, an although i would love this fight to happen i can actualy see him giving Manny a swerve an all, Yes Maywaether is thee best defensive fighter ive seen in a long time an can throw that jab as quick as lightening , but he also likes to move alot around the ring, thats how he fights, Were as Manny wouldnt give him the space to move hes just keep coming at him with them spot on combinations like lightening speed, So yove got the best defensive v the best offensive, I honsestly dont think he could live with Manny present day. Maybe this fight should have been called last year,

As much as I would love it to happen, deep down I have a feeling Mayweather is just gonna duck him.

He ducked Cotto, he was afraid of him, and Manny turned his face into tomatoe sauce. :D  All I have to say is that Pacquiao surprised me in this fight. I knew he'd win, but not in that fashion. He completely dismantled one of the premier welterweight fighters in the world, and didnt have a single cut to show for it. He even put his back to the ropes; the spot where Cotto liked to have his opponents in, just to give Cotto a chance to show what was in his locker. But as soon as he put his guard back up and slid around him, Cotto had no answer. In the corners, on the ropes, in the middle of the ring. Pac owned him.

A fight with Mayweather would be the closest thing to a present day Ali vs Frazier blockbuster that the world would see. Sadly Mayweather likes his nice and shiny perfect 40-0 record, and will not want to lose it. If anything, I've heard rumours of him wanting to fight Cotto now, and even considering Sugar Shane Mosley after being congratulated by him after the Marquez fight.

manny pacquiao is a fighting machine. should be in the boxing hall of fame. 7 world titles at 7 different weights. the thing is, he's moving up in weight and destroying the best in every division.
