id love to see pacquio V David Haye, englands own champ! he pac would get KTFO.
uk got the best boxer in the world.
Manny said that this is his last weight class so Manny vs. Haye will never ever happen. He will destroy Mayweather next. Cotto have a good sportsmanship he accept that Manny is better than him not like Bret Roger when Fedor TKO him he still have no respect to King Fedor still saying that he is the better fighter. I wish that Big John don’t stop that fight earlier so that Fedor can flat Roger face or rip his head off.
Hopefully Mayweather won’t duck him and we can finally see the Mayweather/Manny super fight we all wanted to see in the first place, and hopefully Mosley wins so we can see him take on whoever wins.
LOL, Pac destroyed hatton, and you think some little island champ can hang with him?
David Haye lol, He’s not even close to Manny’s division so dunno what you’re talking about.. One of the Klitschko brothers will take him out eventually.. The best boxer in the world lol, not even top ten.. It’s good you support you’re fellow countrymen, but be realistic..
Mayweather will duck him. I say Mayweather will retire again rather than face Pac. Pac is a better boxer and the pound for pound best. Mayweather is the most evasive and best defensive boxer alive but can’t be considered pound for pound best in the sport anymore.
WOW pacquaio got speed, power, and works them angles like no other
wow said it for me. if UK has the best boxers in the world, then hatton must’ve won by knocking out manny’s fist with his face.
Cotto looked really bad in this fight. Not as bad as hatton, but bad none the less. He looked skinny and his legs were gone in the 2nd round. He must’ve over trained.
Black gerbil are you 8 years old or something? David Haye is a heavyweight, pacquiao is a lightweight-welterweight. And btw, every single UK fighter in history is crazy overrated, Frotch, Hatton, Bisping, Haye, just to name a few. Frotch got embarassed his last fight and still got a decision in his hometown, just pathetic. Keep UK fighters out of the discussion, Calzaghe and Lewis are the only ones that deserve to be talked about. (In history)
Mayweather likes to let the best destroy eachother and then fight them afterwards.
This is a different because Pacquiao is getting stronger and better, and Pacquiao is not headed out the back door of his career, at least he is not used goods.
“Bareknuckle” couldn’t have said it better myself! The way Mayweather fights, honestly it wouldn’t even be fun to watch them for 12 rounds.
damn those announcers are a bunch of pussies
lewis was Jamaican and Canadian before he flocked off to uk
if no one has figured out black gerbil likes to annoy ppl he’s the man. as for pac man who didn’t see this coming but there are sum things he needs to work on like covering up from st8 jabs more and the body shots that cotto was landing other then that complete domination
Ha. yall must be new to this website.
hey name
I am not english but to talk of David Haye and Bisping is quite ridiculous!Haye is a very good and technical boxer and Bisping is a MMA fighter and a mediocre one!Lewis was english and was far away the best in his time!Hatton is avery good boxer even if he is not the best!So do you really know what boxing is all about!I amfrench and everybody say that french boxers are shit but we have and had excellent boxers!
Another on bites the dust…and he destroys another one…they are already having the discussions on the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight and Mayweather will not dodge because he is broke and that fight will bring in the biggest purse in boxing history…

ignore blackgerbil1, he tends to say ridculous comments in order to get people to reply back…
For about 2 rounds I thought we had a great fight on our hands but Manny is too fast. I admire Cotto’s great show of courage though
Yeah Mayweather Pacqiao next and no Mayweahter wont dodge him, he will make like 15 million plus even if Pacman rapes him which he will just like the rest. I mean who wound’t fight a guy for 15 million if you lose? probably close to 25 plus million if you win? Fight will happen
The pacquiao express stops with Mayweather, tho the pacman looks impressive deep down I’m sure every true boxing fan knows, love him or hate him that floyd money will have an easy time against pacquiao! compared to mayweather cotto is extremely slow yet he was able to land picture perfect clean shots on pacquiao, mayweather is faster than pacquiao and ten times more elusive than cotto so say what you will about how good pacquiao is but you all know that mayweather is the best and pacquiao will be an easy fight for floyd.
what’s with the gay tatto cotto sporting around his nipple?? anyway, pacman will destroy mayweather and mosley.
Pac Man vs Haye? What freaking crack are u smoking? Ever heard of weight classes u GIANT moron?
Every time i read some message from blackgerbil i understand how a human can be stupid and retard, mma boxing or kickboxing dont care the sport u are a fucking NOOB or u are 5 years old ??
Did you read any of Pacman’s or Roach’s interviews after this fight? Pacmen was willing to stand and let Cotto hit him with power shots, because Pacman learned early on in this fight that Cotto did not have enough power to hurt him. Roach was NOT happy about Pacman doing this.
Amat, I respect what you’re saying but my beef is more with the UK fans than the fighters themselves. I’ve just seen a lot of horrible decisions in England, more so than any other country. They care more about rigging a fight than truly fighting for a victory. I just find their competitive arrogance absolutely ridiculous. They’re like the Italian Mafia strong-arming soccer officials. I’m canadian but I don’t just blindly back guys because they’re Canadian, I remain objective and I abide by the ideals of a meritocracy when it comes to judging fights and sports in general, as do many people from a lot of other countries OTHER THAN THE UK.
Oh man, welcome to all the first timers. So obvious that the boxing vids bring new blood to MMATKO. Gerbil makes a single comment, walks away, and manages to hijack the entire thread. Gotta love the silly b@$t@rd.
It took Mayweather over ten rounds to destroy Hatton, Pacman done it in two, Go figure.
…and Mayweather admitted that Hatton was the toughest fight of his career, I doubt very much that Pacman would say the same. Manny would destroy Mayweather.
LOL! @ bleekgirlbil.
whatwowsaid -Says “wow said it for me. if UK has the best boxers in the world, then hatton must’ve won by knocking out manny’s fist with his face.”
But the UK SkySports HD1 announcers were spot on for this PACQUIAOvsCOTTO fight, whereas the US announcers were a farce of sorts. From 106 lbs to 144 lbs, the toughest fight for the filipino. TRUE. Marco Antonio Barrera threw in the towel, then annihilated and retired Dela Hoya forever, crushed the hopes of Hatton’s stardom. No answer from Cotto. Will the dismantled Miguel Cotto recover? Firmly in the ascendancy. Pound for pound… mabaksik! Just lovely.
Boxing = BORING!!!!!!
hey Bruno,
Just wanted to say thanks for the post as i love me boxing aswell as MMA
Cheers … Marcuws from Australia
Bruno: No Problem. I try to throw in a good boxing bout from time to time. Plus I just like Manny.
Hate Mayweather, but he is the type of guy to beat Pacquiao. He’ll run & dodge & jab and probably win a decision.
at least 1 filipino won that night…. Brandon Vera u frustrate me when i watch u fight u have so much potential but it seems like ur too scared to pull the trigger jeez! learn from manny finish your fights!!!
P.S. manny you the man
Maywether has fought ever one in his division that was suppose to be great and he beat them all. Who has he ducked? He knocked out Manfreddy after Manfreddy destroyed Gatti in his prime twice. He fought and beat Castillo twice even after the first fight was said to be tight, he came back and dominated Castillo. He knocked out Corrialis in his prime. out classed Judah, knocked out Hatton, frustrated Oscar Dela Hoya stopped Gatti and out classed Baldimir. Maywether is a different fighter than anyone Paquiao will ever fight. Maywether won’t be there for most of Manny’s punches, but Manny will be there in front of Floyd. It will make for a great fight, but Floyd duck Manny please!
Mayweather vs De La Hoya had 2.4 million ppv buys at 55 dollars which was the most ppv buys in boxing’s history.
In my opinion the fighting business only has a small % of people who pay for ppv thus concluding that in 5-10 years MMA maybe as big as boxing is now and boxing fades out or MMA and Boxing remain as they are now.
My point is boxing and mma will continue to be small, very small in comparison to the NFL and dana white will continue to say MMA is going to be as big as the NFL lol!
Bout time you got my fight up for the cheapies to watch. BTW I already sparred with “Money” and soundly defeated him. He’s hiding
Mayweather is going to continue ducking Pacquiao to protect his perfect record. The only way Mayweather takes this fight is if the IRS messes with him again and he gets 20 million and up to fight Pacquio.
The video doesn’t work for me, am I the only one?
Bruno: It still works for me in three different browsers.
My guess is that Mayweather will try to fight Cotto next.
Mayweather Vs. Pacquiao will happen because it needs to, it’ll probably just take awhile.. Floyd shouldn’t have taken that temporary retirement then there wouldn’t be such a dispute on the money side of things. Because of that vacation many people feel that manny is now the pound for pound champ and therefore, deserves an even split or better.. If floyd had remained in the game then he would clearly have a better stance in negotiations, in that he would have been winning fights the whole time manny was. Anyway, I would love to see it, but my money is still on floyd, I don’t see him getting caught.
1: dont ever read blackgerbils comments
2 Lewis is Jamacan/Canadian (Oly gold medalist) trained in canada before he flocked off
3 Boxing=boring= iggnorant jackass!
4 Mayweather wants 65/35 split…wtf!!
Ok name
I also respect what you are saying.I am right with you when you speak of English fans.It is good to see it is possible to speak with someone and not see insults or bullshit.See you soon my friend
Pacquiao’s people said they would agree to the 65/35 split.
“65 for Pacquiao / 35 for Mayweather”
One Thing is for sure. Mayweather will do his usual running around, he will say that Manny has been KOed twice and he will get the way bigger chunk out of the ppv purse. But the thing is… There’s only two fights left that deserve some attention in Floyd’s carrer right now and those are Mosley or Pacman and even though I still think Money can take both of them, these guys are the only ones that will put a fight against him.
Grea fight, but what the hell was with the stoppage? It was a terrible stoppage. Pacman was definitely destroying Cotto.. but seriously? He had his legs.. he didn’t get hit with a hard shot.. and actually a few seconds before that stoppage in an earlier exchange.. the ref was trying to step in and possibly stop the fight as well… o.o….
Want a beautiful fighter to watch – plus hes got a chin
That wasn’t a bad stoppage. No offense Red but I’m guessing you don’t watch boxing that often. Cotto was offering absolutely nothing in return for the past 4 rounds and the only reason it wasn’t stopped earlier is because the ref gave a chance for Miguel’s corner to step up or for Miguel to call a quits himself. It’s not like MMA, these guys take shots to the head over a 12 round fight and it’s extremely taxing to the brain when compared to MMA, where usually the punch that hurts you is the one that ends the fight. These guys are given 10 seconds to recoop only to get up and get more and more battered. Over the last 4 rounds it honestly looked like a terminator stalking a bunny rabbit, and maybe for savages it would have been nice to see the bunny(Cotto) get blown up. But to me, the ref was right in saying with %100 certainty that there was absolutely nothing left but for Cotto to get really badly hurt. That combined with the Margarito fight, where Margarito could have been wearing hard plaster in his gloves, could lead to some serious life-shortening injuries for Cotto. I wouldn’t have wanted to see him die in that ring, boxing is very serious and easily one of the more dangerous sports. Boxing needs officials to step up and be brave when the fighters have too much pride to quit.. In my mind that was a rescue, not a stoppage.
Cotto looked skinny because Pacman made him drop to 145 for the fight EVEN THOUGH THE FIGHT WAS FOR THE 147 TITLE!!!
Whats next?
Pacman vs Klitchko at a catchweight of 150 for the Heavyweight title?
i used to like boxing,but after mma got popular i don’t like it any more. to long, to mamy rules, and those glove are to big. after all i don’t like to see little guys boxing. pacman is just too little. Little guys in mma rocks, but boxing forget it. Boxing is going down baby..
boxing is boring, i used to like it because i didn’t know amy better. now that i was introduced to mma things are different. i love mma.
Lol tru playa,
I’m pretty sure that fight was at 147, and I suppose you think the result would have been much different if Cotto were 2 pounds heavier. I guess his head wouldn’t have been blown up by that uppercut/hook if he had an extra 2 pounds right? WRONG! Stfu sore loser. Are you a sad puerto rican fan or something? Take the L like a man.
My guess is that Mayweather will fight Mosley before he fights Manny.
Cotto ran away the last 4 rounds. He didn’t want to get demolished. You have to feel bad for him. He had too much pride and didn’t want the smaller guy stopping him. He’s actually a very good guy.
manny was too much for cotto! i thought it would be a close fight and cotto might KO manny, but it was the other way around. cotto’s got power but manny withstand it!!!
to all of you morons out there, welterweight is fought between 141 and 147. So, 145 is definitely a welterweight fight. Tell me this, is losing 2 pounds better or worse than gaining 10 lbs. pacquiao is a natural lightweight (135). The fight stopped too soon by the referee? seriously? the fight should have been stopped in the 9th or 10th. The refere always wants to err on the side of caution. it is better to stop a fight one punch too early than a punch too late. although cotto was still fighting back, he was taking way too many punishment. and what about all these comments that boxing is boring compared to mma? it depends on who is fighting.this was a very exciting fight. vera-couture on the other hand was a sleepfest and oh the descision was atrocious.
