That was a good fight until 5th or 6th round when all cotto did was retreat and landed a couple of power punches then taking more of a beating. In the first couple of rounds I thought Cotto was a great match for Manny but it looked like Manny was evaluating him and after that Manny released his speed and power. Now that's over...Freddie Roach wanted Mayweather? I think mayweather would win not b/c he fights better but b/c he would do the same game plan that shut down marquez. Throw a punch retreat, throw a punch retreat... daym… That was a good fight until 5th or 6th round when all cotto did was retreat and landed a couple of power punches then taking more of a beating.

The speed deficit was too much, though. Hey, hindsight's 20/20. I'm proud of him -- and proud to be a fan.

Manny is getting ready for another day at the office, but Cotto is training for a fight. Big difference. I think Manny will learn some tough lessons tonight.
