i like cotto and everything, but because i dont want to see a rematch for this magical quest for the 8th belt. in house fighting is bad enough but to break records by fighting fighters you already beat and only fighting certain champs and not others doesnt deserve credit.. anyhow, mannys team said foreman is too big for him and they dont want that fight. but he fought de la hoya who was the same size(quack)... anyhow how many people will be rooting for foreman just so manny doesnt get another useless belt?

All three guys are Top Rank fighters so Manny Pacqauio could be matched ageist either man.

Why the hell would Manny fight Cotto again? If he did I would lose a lot of respect for him. He already beat him decisively and that fight clearly did not call for a rematch, so what is the point? If I wouldn't care to see it, then they aren't going to be able to sell it to the casual boxing fan. I am rooting for Cotto b/c I am a Cotto fan, but if he wins and that is the direction that Manny and his team go I will be very disappointed and very annoyed with that fight. It has no relevance whatsoever other than Manny fighting someone he already beat convincingly just so he can get another meaningless alphabet belt to add to his collection. That fight is a joke if they make it happen.



Hey let's have Manny fight Cotto again at JM and make a bunch of excuses as to why Cotto will have a chance this time and screw a bunch of people out of their money. Then we don't have to share the money with anyone else b/c we all work for Top Rank. The fight proves nothing, and I'm angry it is even a possiblity at this point. If Manny wanted a belt at 154 he should have fought Yuri instead of saying he is too tall & waiting until Cotto may beat him, and then cherry-picking on the guy he already knows he can beat.

Ya, I would want Foreman to win to keep him from fighting Cotto again, but I think Cotto would be more Dangerous than Foreman regardless...especially now that he has Emmanuel. I think Cotto would definitely put up a better fight the 2nd time around...but I don't think it will change much because he's already been beat decisively and I'm not taking anything away from Steward...he's one of the best trainers no doubt...but Cotto has got to be thinking in his head...man this dude already whooped me pretty bad...so Pacman will have the advantage against him already before fighting again.



And if Foreman was to win...(VERY BIG IF, and highly doubted) I think Pacman would have an easier time against him than Cotto/Steward.



Cotto "SHOULD" be a better fighter with his new trainer...but I dont think he'll have enough for Pacman only having Steward for such a short time...sadly Cotto doesn't have much time to wait because Pacman will retire soon...so Cotto should just focus on HIS career and not chase Pacman now.

I don't understand why everyone is disrespecting and discounting Miguel Cotto. Before the Pacman fight, he was still a top 10 PFP fighter. I think with Emmanuel Steward as his trainer now, Cotto is probably a much more improved and smarter boxer. So what if the Pacman fights Cotto again? The first fight, especially the first 5 rounds, were pure boxing entertainment at its best. Maybe if Flomo Jr. grows some balls, he can finally stop being a ducker and finally fight Miguel Cotto once and for all, but we all know that Flomo Jr. will never because he's been ducking for years and right now is ducking the Pacman.

I want Cotto to win. I still think he can fight at the top level, and if he wins, I want him to fight Paul Williams.

If Miguel Cotto wins, KFC could challenge him for that belt.

This might prevent Manny from gathering another belt making it his 8th.

That's if the DUCK'tor Maywether is up to the task.

I hope DUCK'tor does not t demand 14 oz. glove.

The EXPOSED Manny can ONLY have fixed fights, so he has to fight a fighter who will lay down.



Who cares who lays down in a fixed fight?



The fans are tired of Manny's fixed fights. Clottey was enough. Enough is enough.
