Talks are over by the time the sound of the bell at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas is heard all over the world today (Nov. 15, Manila time).
Millions of people all over the world are talking about Manny Pacquiao, whose meteoric rise to success, fame, fortune and boxing supremacy has been legendary.
Against the Puerto Rican world champion Miguel Cotto, he’d certainly have his hands full.
Cotto is no pushover, having lost just once in 35 professional fights.
The sturdy Cotto is noted for his punishing body punches, something Pacquiao will have to be cautious. Otherwise, he’ll give the Puerto Rico’s boxing pride every ounce of confidence to try to dash his dream of history.
Well, for Pacquiao, he certainly is right when he said his speed and footwork will be his greatest assets going into the world title fight.
In fact, during the press conference pre-fight interview for the WBO welterweight championship, Pacquiao emphasized that from his speed will come the power to hopefully, score the big knockout punch that would enable him to become the first-ever boxer to win a seventh world title in seven different weight categories.
Anyway, here’s my fearless forecast—Pacquiao will either win via KO inside 10 rounds or should it go the distance, he’d win by unanimous decision.
What do you think? Are you a Pacquiao or Cotto die-hard fan?
