In addition to UFC 105 Saturday night, there was a nice little boxing match that took place, if you’re in to that sort of thing. Some Filipino dude named Manny Pacquiao took on a Puerto Rican character by the name of Miguel Cotto.
You won’t see any submission attempts or head kick knockouts. There’s no wrestling or flying knees to the head. What you will see though is some of the fastest damn hands this side of the rabbit hole.

Well, Miguel Cotto is a true fighter as I seen his recent fights , He’s a tough fighter in the ring , but Manny still have the edge in fighting experience and can pound anybody in speed of light , the techniques of Manny Paquiao is no match at all and cannot be questioned at all at which Miguel Cotto could not comprehend , Thanks also to the Great Coach Freddie Roach ‘ He has made a machine out of Manny and Hurray to both Batman and Robin Tandem !!!!
I really like Cotto he is one helluva warrior but he allowed himself to lose his cool which played right into Pacquiao’s hands unfortunately. He’s damn brave to take all that punishment too and refuse to quit. If he had stuck to the jab and kept his boxing tighter he might not have suffered those knockdowns though.
