[LYCHEE]

man! was manny the greatest or what...he absorbed the much vaunted punching power of cotto like a fast moving

brick wall, we saw manny head snapped a few times from cotto's stinging jabs but manny never lost his

composure and awesome speed hitting cotto as many as 7 punches in a flury until the faithfull last 55 secs. of

the final round that gave our champion the welterweight belt and brought ring history to another level... :thumbsupsmiley:

O paano na itong before the fight interview kay DeLa Hoya?

 

I’m now convinced Cotto will win. The reason is, first, nobody looks good against Clottey. He’s a difficult, strong, in-your-face type of fighter. And Cotto had that gash over his eye the whole fight. I thought he did an excellent job in light of that.

 

Cotto has a good chin and a big heart. He’s a natural welterweight who hits hard and is also smart and fast. Pacquiao doesn’t hit hard enough to knock anyone out in the welterweight division. I’m basing that on my fight against Pacquiao. I could’ve stood there and put my face in front of him and he couldn’t have hurt me.

 

I think Pacquiao will come out strong and try to surprise Cotto. If that doesn’t work, I believe (trainer) Freddie Roach will tell Pacquiao to wait for Cotto to come in and then counter, to stay on his toes. I believe that’s the reason (promoter) Bob Arum arranged to have a big ring, to give Pacquiao an advantage. Arum promotes both fighters but, obviously, it benefits him more if Pacquiao wins so they’re going to favor him.

 

I think Cotto is a smart fighter. I think he’ll get through those first few rounds and in a smart way he’ll walk down Pacquaio and possibly stop him in the later rounds.

 

I know that would surprise a lot of people. A lot of people are counting him out after his last performance. I think he’s the real deal, though. I’ve seen his skills and I’ve seen his power. He’s proved himself against tough, rugged guys. He’s proved himself against slick boxers.

 

Cotto is one of those fighters who can surprise anyone.

I -compile natin yung mga negative predictions about manny sa Firepower

[federicuger]

From Philippine Entertainment Portal!!!

 

scoopbox Part 2: Nagkulong daw sa VIP room si Jinkee. No

comment naman si Pacman dahil sinusuyo pa raw niya sa Jinkee.

 

 

scoopbox Part 1: Ayaw magpa-interview ni Jinkee Pacquiao sa

media sa Las Vegas. Nagkaroon daw sila ng matinding away ni Manny...

[jumpman23]

Congrats to PacMan. And much respect to Cotto, he was a game fighter, but the bigger guy showed up tonight. :thumbsupsmiley:

[brian]

Great fight. Congratulations to Manny. Truly a class on its own. I also admire Cotto. The guy had a LOT of heart. Took 11 rounds of punishment but never gave up. And he was very classy in defeat.

 

Mayweather Jr. should be pissing in his pants while watching the fight.

[King Nothing]

Gayweather should compete with Bebe Gandanghari first. :evil:

 

LOL HAHAHAHAHA

 

Bakit? May nagdududa pa ba kay Manny ngayon?

 

Cotto really is no match for manny... I haven't seen paul williams, so I would say floyd is the only guy perhaps who can give manny a hard run.

Congrats Manny!!!

 

Greatest Pinoy Boxer of All-Time!!!

 

the father of cotto actually asked for the stoppage even as as cotto's kid and wife left ring-side

3 rounds earlier after seeing the sorry sight of cotto's batterd & swollen face...

 

consider these power punches both warriors traded & landed: 93 by cotto vs. 276 by pacman

If it's gonna be Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, I doubt it very much if the face of Mayweather will still be pretty after that fight.

Paul williams is the most avoided fighter in professional boxing, walang gusto lumaban sa kanya kasi magaling siya tapos hindi sikat kaya pag may lalaban sa kanya may risk na matalo tapos wala pang masyado kikitain na pera kasi konti palang fans niya

[federicuger]

bakit daw anu pinag awayan? ring side girls?

 

Krista Ranillo?

[Guest megalodon]

An at-his-peak Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Pacman would have been exciting to watch. Speed vs. speed.

[ixnay]

If it's gonna be Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, I doubt it very much if the face of Mayweather will still be pretty after that fight.

 

for sure he will make alot of excuses not to fight MP.

 

gayweather is shitting in pants for sure after seeing what MP can do to a legit welterweight!..

 

again congrats MANNY!... job well done!... :thumbsupsmiley:

bring on the alibis, gayweather!

MANNY PACQUIAO, NOT GOOD ENOUGH

 

By Greg R. Penilla, M.D.

PhilBoxing.com

Tue, 10 Nov 2009

 

 

 

A new dawn, a new era is about to transpire in the history of the Sweet Science of boxing. By this time next week, Manny Pacquaio would have already emerged as the only boxer in the planet who would become a seven time world champion in seven weight classes.

 

Multitude of great and Hall of Fame fighters, the likes of Ali, Robinson, Leonard, Armstrong, Chavez, Duran, Sanchez, etc., have gone before him, but the Filipino warrior will go down in the annals of boxing history as the first, and maybe the last, to achieve this extraordinary feat. Interestingly though, a 154 pounds title is within the realm of possibility.

 

Unfortunately, despite Pacquiao’s unparalleled accomplishments on top of the ring this decade, detractors abound. In spite of his hallowed place in boxing history, some writers, so-called boxing experts and jealous boxers do not give him all the recognition he rightfully deserves.

 

This coming Saturday, November 14, Pacquaio is going against Miguel Cotto, a very formidable and elite fighter who is in the prime of his career. He has trained hard and he probably represents the most difficult fight so far for Manny Pacquaio. Although the Las Vegas odds seem to overwhelmingly favor Pacquaio to win, this fight will not be a walk in the park for the Philippines’ “National Fist”. This fight has the makings of the Fight of the Year.

 

However, win or lose, Manny Pacquiao is between a rock and a hard place.

 

If he loses against Miguel Cotto, his detractors would surely say, “I told you so, he is not as good as advertised”. It is understandable and perfectly logical for some pundits to pick Cotto as the winner. There is nothing unreasonable about that. What is comical is when analysts disparage Pacquiao.

 

Oscar De La Hoya is favoring Cotto not because he thinks Cotto is a great fighter but he thinks that Pacquiao does not hit hard enough.

 

He was quoted as saying, “Pacquiao doesn’t hit hard enough to knock anyone out in the welterweight division. I’m basing that on my fight against Pacquiao. I could’ve stood there and put my face in front of him and he couldn’t have hurt me”.

 

One would wonder if De La Hoya looked at the mirror at the hospital where he was taken by an ambulance after the fight. Obviously, Pacquiao would have sent De La Hoya to dreamland had he come out in the ninth round. But instead of protecting his boxing legacy and his dignity, De la Hoya opted to quit on his stool knowing that another minute with the pound for pound king would inevitably end up with him sprawled on the canvas.

 

Oscar De La Hoya would have gotten more respect from boxing purists had he decided to fight to the very end. Ironically, he is now practically saying Pacquiao did not hurt him? Please explain!

 

When, not if, Pacquiao wins this coming Saturday, it will not be surprising for skeptics to find excuses for Cotto’s loss.

 

Cotto is over trained

Cotto is weight drained

Cotto is forever damaged by his loss to Margarito

Cotto is distracted

Cotto did not fight the right fight

Cotto has inexperienced corner men

 

Regardless, excuses will still be made, while Cotto himself has declared that he has completely recovered physically and mentally from the Margarito fight and he is focused, confident, well trained and in the best shape of his life.

 

Sadly, the doubters will not say, Pacquiao won because he is simply the best boxer of this era.

 

Manny Pacquiao cannot get any break from some who are hell bent to discredit any of his spectacular wins against all the elite fighters he has demolished.

 

To the skeptics, he will never be good enough.

 

When Floyd Jr made the face of Juan Manuel Marquez as a target practice, Mayweather’s supporters all but declared that he is the greatest of all time. There is no doubt that he did win a one sided fight over an old (36), slow, underweight and most of all, a damaged fighter from the two wars he had with Pacquiao.

 

One really wonders what is more spectacular, a 12 round decision by a significantly bigger, faster and younger fighter who connected a very high per cent of his “power shots” but leaving his opponent standing and relatively unmarked or a smaller fighter who has demolished and reconfigured the faces of his much larger and stronger opponents in breathtaking fashion within a few rounds?

 

Regrettably, doubters continue to nit pick Pacquiao’s wins.

 

When Pacquiao, with a mere two week notice, stunned the boxing world in 2001 with his upset win via a 6th round knock out of the world champion Lebwada, the win was called a fluke.

 

His win against the legendary Marco Antonio Barrera was diminished by the skeptics, pointing out that the future Hall of Famer had been to too many brutal boxing wars and too old (only 29) that Pacquiao’s win was not totally unexpected.

 

Pacquiao’s inability to finish Juan Manuel Marquez after dropping him three times in their first fight that eventually ended in a draw, notwithstanding an error in scoring that could have made Pacquiao the outright winner on points, convinced the critics that Pacquiao had no boxing skills and a one dimensional fighter.

 

There was almost a collective sense of excitement among the cynics when Pacquiao lost by unanimous decision to Erik Morales and were eager to point out that Manny was a flash in the pan.

 

Less than spectacular wins against B fighters like Velasquez, Larios, Solis and a fading Barrera (still only 32) whose strategy was simply to survive, provided the seeds for hesitation for some to declare Pacquiao as a great fighter.

 

Despite obliterating the Mexican great, Erik Morales in their second and third classic fights, it was unbelievable that some writers still found reasons to tarnish Pacquiao’s astonishing wins. Just like Barrera, Morales was labeled old (only 30) and broken down.

 

The much awaited second Pacquiao-Marquez fight won by Pacquiao by the slimmest of margin convinced the doubting Thomases that Pacquiao did not deserve the win. It is well known who hit the canvas.

 

With elite opposition drying up in the lower weight classes, Pacquiao, clearly possessing improved boxing skills embarked on fighting bigger men with spectacular wins. The one dimensional fighter has bloomed into a two armed fighting machine, at the same time remaining fast and powerful.

 

But to his usual skeptics, Diaz, although a World Champion was a nobody. De La Hoya, although the overwhelming favorite and Oscar’s left hook to Pacquiao’s brain would make him do the crack head dance, was too old (35) and weight drained. Hatton, who was proclaimed by the legendary trainer Angelo Dundee, as possessing a powerful left hook that would bring Pacquiao down but was suddenly labeled to be too slow and over rated after Manny sent him lights out in the second round.

 

If Pacquaio – Mayweather Fight ever happens and Pacquiao wins, I can almost predict the excuse why Manny wins. He is on steroids.

 

What more does Pacquiao need to do, to gain the respect of everyone?

 

Sadly, to some, he will never be good enough. ........

[ixnay]

hats off also to cotto!.. he's a true sportsman!..

[kleptome]

THey must remember, Manny is the MAN! Manny does not need gayweather. He is already the greatest with or without fighting him,

 

Gayweather needs Manny!

[anatoly]

elibs talaga ako kay pacman.

time to whoop some gayweather ass!
