Take a look in Miguel Cotto Boxing History, winning boxing career & Puertorican Cotto's Greatest Hits! Miguel Cotto is currently shedding weight against Manny "Pac Man" Pacquiao will be a disadvantage to his strong punches. Miguel Cotto is not a counter puncher even if he is, Cotto's style will be an easy target for Manny Pacma by KO in the middle round 4 or round 5. Manny Pacquiao has the edge in speed and right timing of release punches plus with his new found power in his right arm with massive blow that hits British boxer Ricky Hatton. It will be difficult for Manny Pacquiao fight for Cotto beacause stamina and chin will put him to the real fist pound for pound test.
What how Miguel Cotto dominate the ring of boxing
Miguel Cotto will defenitly defeat Manny Pacquiao because Manny never faught a figther with such power and he is scarred he wants Miguel Cotto at 143 and the figth is at 145, Cotto can win but a great chance of losing. Miguel Cotto is been doing the hardest training and getting better and improved version of powerful Tito Trinidad. Cotto is smarter in the ring and outside of it. Surely Cotto will not have a good night against Manny Pacquiao. However who did Pacquiao recently Knock Out? Ricky Hatton who as we know has a weak guard and no blocking or movement ability during their fight. You can't even compare them. Know which side are you? Cotto or Pacquiao?

Pacquiao-Cotto Contract on Hold While Bob Arum is on Vacation
Pacquiao-Cotto Contract on Hold While Bob Arum is on Vacation
There seems to be a news blackout with regards to the signing of the fight contract between Pacquiao and Cotto as Bob Arum is currently vacationing in Europe. The camp of Pacquiao is suddenly talking of a Pacquiao-Mosley fight.
The Pacquiao-Cotto boxing match will remain uncertain until Top Rank’s honcho Bob Arum returns from a European vacation.
For now, it’s all speculation. No confirmation of any fight detail is expected until after Arum comes back any day next week.
Before traveling to the US for a photo shoot with Kobe Bryant and Maria Sharapova, Manny Pacquiao said in a TV News report that he is only 80% sure the Pacquiao-Cotto fight will happen.
The pound-for pond king returned to the Philippines from a photo session with the equally famous sports celebrities without seeing Bob Arum, hence no decision on the fight contract was made during the week.
It seems that news reporters where Arum is vacationing somewhere in Europe are prevented from getting a short statement from the popular boxing promoter with a ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign posted on the door of his hotel suite.
In news reports yesterday, Shane Mosley’s name is again being floated as Pacquiao’s opponent this year as the Cotto camp could not decide on the weight Pacquiao wants for the fight.
Philstar.com reports:
Manny Pacquiao’s lawyer, Franklin Gacal, yesterday said if Miguel Cotto insists on the catch weight of 145 lb, the Filipino boxing icon might be forced to consider Mosley as his next opponent.
“We will not agree to 145 pounds. And if Cotto insists, we’ll go for Mosley,” said Gacal from Davao City.
Still the date and venue for the fight have not yet been finalized. “Regarding the date, maybe we can give in to what Bob Arum wants although Manny really wants to fight in October. But there’s the baseball thing so maybe we can agree on November,” said Gacal.
On the weight issue, “Manny will be giving up too much if he agrees to fight Cotto at 145. We want him at 143 and if he insists otherwise, then we’ll look at Mosley if Mosley is still available,” said the Filipino lawyer.

Pacquiao-Cotto Match Hangs on Catch weight and Purse Issues
Pacquiao-Cotto Match Hangs on Catch weight and Purse Issues
Pacquiao-Cotto Match Hangs on Catch weight and Purse Issues
The Pacquiao-Cotto boxing match has yet to be finalized with the catch weight and purse issues still hanging in the air. Cotto insists that he will not go below 145 while Pacquiao says he is fighting Cotto at 143.
The much talked about boxing match between Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines and Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico hangs on two issues- catch weight and fight purse.
Yesterday Cotto said he is sticking to his decision to fight the pound-for-pound king at 145, no more, no less.
Pacquiao, on the other hand wants it at 143, although his trainer, Freddie Roach appears to be agreeable to 144. But Cotto remain steadfast in his decision which was reached earlier in consultation with his nutritionist.
Boxing fans believe that the two popular boxers will eventually meet halfway at 144. This will not matter most with Pacquiao but it will be a big issue for Cotto and his nutritionist.
The Pacquiao-Cotto match will most likely take place in Las Vegas, Nevada possibly on November 14, 2009. The fight contract though has not been signed and sealed.
Miguel Cotto is fresh from his ‘not so impressive’ victory over Joshua Clottey of Ghana last month at the Madison Square Garden in New York, while Manny Pacquiao won over Ricky Hatton by KO last May 2 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Cotto insists on 145 lbs vs Pacquiao
Cotto insists on 145 lbs vs Pacquiao
Miguel Cotto remains steadfast in his position that before a mega buck fight with Manny Pacquiao gets signed, sealed, and delivered for Nov 14, it has to be at a catch weight of 145 lbs.
“Mi peticion es la misma, no cambia (My petition is the same, no change),” Cotto told Hiram Alberto Torraca of the Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Dia over the weekend when asked whether his standpoint has changed.
Pacquiao had said last week that while he believes that the fight is 80 percent done, the revenue sharing and the catch weight have yet to be agreed upon by the two camps, stressing that he doesn’t only deserve the lion’s share of the money but is unconstrained in demanding a catch weight of 143 lbs owing to his stature.
Still, a ranking official of Top Rank believes these are all part of the normal things that happen in the buildup to a super fight featuring Pacquiao, boxing No. 1 attraction, and Cotto, the Puerto Rican star who holds the World Boxing Organization welterweight crown.

Pacquiao vs Cotto fight is a GO signal this november
Even though contracts have yet to be signed, Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto have agreed in principle to face each other on Nov. 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.“A (disagreement over) a pound or two will not stop this fight,” Lee Samuels said yesterday as the ace Top Rank publicist was awaiting his flight to the Bay Area from Las Vegas to preside over Nonito Donaire’s public workout in the city of San Carlos, just a 15-minute drive from San Francisco.
Top Rank is confident in sealing the deal that the company’s head — Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum — remains on vacation in Europe and won’t be reporting back to work until next week.
Pacquiao said recently that he will insist that a catchweight of 143 lbs be imposed although Cotto has publicly declared that he cannot go lower than 145 lbs. The welterweight limit is 147 lbs.
“We’ll be able to tweak things out,” said Samuels. “This is the money fight for Pacquiao and Cotto and the things that we are having right now like (stalled) negotiations is just normal.”
Before leaving for Europe for his annual sojourn, Arum handed Pacquiao adviser Mike Koncz a proposal for the Nov. 14 fight although it would only be today that the pound-for-pound king will go over the documents.“(Pacquiao lawyer) Jeng (Gacal) and myself will go over this tomorrow (Sunday),” said Koncz, who was on the Philippine Airlines flight that landed in Manila from Los Angeles last Friday.
Arum is so upbeat of forging a deal that he has informed Team Pacquiao about the promotional tour being lined up just before Pacquiao reports for training camp under Freddie Roach at the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood.
To maximize the earning potential of the bout on pay-per-view, Arum will bring the boxers on a press tour of key US cities like New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles, Cotto’s territory of San Juan in Puerto Rico and even Mexico City.
