Manny is fast but his punches aren't as powerful as the hands of Cotto. Size will not be a factor in this match...it will be determined by power punches and there will also not be a knockout. This will be a close decision in Cotto's favor. <br />Cotto has handled serious fighters with ease. His only loss was at the hands of Margarito who had hands full of plaster in that fight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543908672334995898.post-48000992731906123262009-08-27T04:30:33.331-07:002009-08-27T04:30:33.331-07:00Its funny to read this comments from people who sa...Its funny to read this comments from people who say that cotto has never seen speed like pacquiao...Really ?
