*patiently waits for Pacquaio vs. Mayweather early next year*
Patiently nothing! I want this fight NOW! I can't wait. Just imagine the hype!
It'll be one of the most anticpated matches of our generation.
-
fight stopped, manny wins
-
I'm shocked Cotto lasted this long, but I guess anybody can last through rounds by running around the ring like he is. Crowd is booing him for his running.
-
what a fighter Cotto is. If will-power could win matches he would never lose.
-
cotto is a bloody mess right now.
-
cotto will be knocked out very soon
-
cotto up against the ropes several times this round
-
Manny has spent the last couple of rounds chasing Cotto around the ring. He's on the run but I wonder how long Manny can keep up this kind of intensity. All it can take is one mistake to get knocked down... or knocked out.
-
Cotto is down in points but he can still win this fight.
-
Manny looking like he is wearing down, which you don't see often.
-
this fight is intense. What a difference this is from the Hatton fight.
-
cotto still looking good despite the knockdowns
-
cotto goes down after a brutal onslaught by manny, cotto is going to have to look for a big hit to get back into this fight.
-
I wonder if the loose shorts are causing manny to lose a little bit in his focus and footwork
-
Manny is so fast it's unbelievable. No matter how much I watch him work it's still a marvel to see.
-
Manny takes round 2
-
does it seem like manny is pulling up his shorts a lot? At first I thought it was to show off a little bit but he's been doing it a lot. Even between punches I've noticed him reaching to pull it up.
-
from what I've seen so far I think Cotto is doing a good job dealing with manny's speed... and boy is he fast. Manny needs to find a way inside to land meaningful punches.
-
last round
-
Mayweather is coasting to another victory. Marquez needs to use whatever is left in the tank to get a lucky shot and turn everything around with one punch.
EDIT: In other words... it's hail mary time.
-
Mayweather looks like he's going back to his defensive strategy
-
argh!!!!! My justin.tv source just got cut off. Man they are really starting to crush efforts to stream these ppv fights. I remember watching the Manny vs Hatton fight with no trouble on justin.tv
-
Mayweather was a monster in the beginning. Similar to how Roy Jones was. Than as both of them got older they turned into more defensive/couter punching fighters. I think the thinking is, if you're on top, why put yourself out there?
I agree with the strategy, but what I was saying is that it looks like Mayweather isn't using his normal counter-punch strategy. He looks fierce and aggressive. It's very exciting but I think it's a bit risky. I wonder if he'll rely on the attack this much in the fight against Manny (if there is one).

mayweather is a lot more agressive than I remember in previous fights. I always thought he was a counter-puncher

Floyd's fighting style is the opposite of his pre-match hype persona. Floyd is a quiet fighter. He's very calculating and works more with counter assaults. He'll look like he's always on the defensive but that's just until the opponent gets close enough to attack with just the right punch combo.
Manny will have to figure a way around that. He can be aggressive, very aggressive. That kind of fighting style plays right into Floyd's style.
I also give Floyd the edge, but it'll still be completely awesome to see.
