He needs a new trainer... After the fist fight against his uncle trainer Evangelista, he was sued him for 7 mil USD for breach of contract...

Legendary Emmanuel Steward is floating as Cotto's trainer against Pac though no official confirmation yet.

I agree.. Cotto weigh in at 146lbs against Joshua Clottey last month. 145 catchweight is more on psychological war... coz i heard there is a penalty of the excess pounds (1 mil per pound) during the weigh in.

adjust lng unta gamay cla Pacman ani sa shares para mo sugot si Cotto mo defend sa iyang 147 belt @ 145. news says Cotto will fight Pacman at 145 but without his belt.

i really thought na this is a championship fight pag create nko sa thread..

by the way Moorer is out na sa Wild Card.

yah nakabasa q sa laing b0xing sites na wla na c Moorer sa wild card.....


i think dili na unta c Pacquiao mosaka sa 147..sakto jud na timbang for him is 140...he should reign in dat division and unified all d belts in dat division..but mao misaka xa kay 140 divisions, wlay mga halinun na mga boxer..dili kaayo makakwarta ang iyaha or ang other mga promoter..ang mga boxer ani ng weight division dili kaayo mga sikat...in boxing, money is business

[vanschen]

sa last fight ni Cotto dli impressive. pildi ra ghpon ni.

according ni Roach sa update sa facebook, tough opponent c Cotto pro KO by Pacman ra ghpon ang result.

dli basta basta na c Pacman ky more of a complete fighter na. dli nasad daw ma dali dali ang iya abs. mao raba na weakness nya sauna. mao nang napildihan nya sa mga earlier fights wla pa mo sikat. after 1st round give up dayn ky na tiyan. pro dnt think nga mao ghpon ang weakness.

Manny will win this fight.

Cotto not staking title in Pacquiao bout

Miguel Cotto


MANILA, Philippines - Unless he changes his mind, Miguel Cotto won’t put his belt on the line against Manny Pacquiao.
“No,” said Top Rank’s Bob Arum told The STAR when asked if Cotto would stake his WBO welterweight crown for his fight with the Filipino pound-for-pound champion on Nov. 14 in Las Vegas.
Cotto will face Pacquiao at a catchweight of 145 lb but can put his 147 lb title at stake if he wants to.
But the champion from Puerto Rico, at the moment, is not thinking about it.
“He doesn’t want to pay the sanction fee. So, no, Miguel Cotto will not stake his crown against Manny Pacquiao,” said Arum over the phone.
However, WBO president Francisco “Paco” Valcarcel insisted yesterday it should be a title fight.
Arum said sanction fees if it becomes a title fight could amount to as much as $400,000.
However, the legendary promoter from Top Rank who has both Pacquiao and Cotto in his stable said it’s going to be a huge fight – with or without the title.
Arum said he doesn’t even care if there’ll be no title at stake. What’s important, he said, is for the people to see a great fight between the two great fighters.
“Nobody in the US cares about the title,” said Arum, adding that it’s going to be a 12-round battle just the same at the 17,000-seat MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
There are no signatures on the fight contract yet, but Arum said there’s nothing to worry about, even as Shane Mosley, the other welterweight champion from the WBA, has dangled everything but the kitchen sink for Pacquiao to fight him instead.
“There’s no contract yet but everything’s been agreed upon. We’re finalizing everything and maybe we can get it done this week or early on next week,” said Arum.
Understandably, Pacquiao, the reigning pound-for-pound king and IBO light-welterweight champion, will get the lion’s share and that could mean 65 pecent of everything.
Pacquiao got a guaranteed purse of $12 million for facing Ricky Hatton last May and his take for this one, only his second and last fight this year, should be just around the vicinity if not bigger.
Mosley is hot in pursuit of Pacquiao, saying he deserves the right to face the Filipino icon, and not Cotto. The native of Pomona, California, said he’s willing to face the southpaw from Saranggani in his own weight of 140 lb for 40 percent of the purse.
Yesterday, reports came out about Mosley’s latest offer.
“What does Manny want? Mosley was quoted by Michael Marley. “He can have all my old title belts. They just sit in my garage and gather dust as it is. I’ve got an old pool table I never use. I’ve got some great old music on those eight track things. I could also wash and wax Manny’s cars if he likes.
“Manny can have it all if he wants it...hell, Manny can even have cutman Cassius Greene’s sailor’s cap. Do you know what you could get for that on Ebay?” said the 38-year-old champion.

nindut ni na match.. sigurado ko lingaw ni tanawn...

[lunateec22]

A non-title fight? This can't be. Di nako mopalit ug pay-per-view oi. T_T

I'll just watch the fight from YouTube then or even listen to the radio nalang. Manny has a chance to break Dela Hoya's record of winning title in six weight classes by winning winning seven. This opportunity is not only for Manny but for our generation to witness this extraordinary feat.

“Nobody in the US cares about the title,”

We do.

Manny already has a record of winning 4 lineal titles in 4 divisions. NOBODY in boxing has ever done that. NOBODY! Whether or not this is for a title, I'd certainly watch this live because this is a great matchup, and a tall order for the pound for pound king. I'd love to see Manny prove his greatness once again
