The Mayweather-Marquez bout has been pushed back because Money injured his ribs training, so that bout will be rescheduled most likely in the early to late fall. I think Floyd is training too hard in anticipation of gettin Pacquiao next. Mayweather is defensive and needs to be all the way hunnid for this fight.
The other fight is Pacquiao-Cotto. This will be the better of the two superfights. Pacman and Cotto are very offensive fighters. Cotto doesn't clutch and he's like the 2nd coming of Gatti with more skill. I'll let Sportaphile, another good site, lay out the strategy. Chuck is more up on his boxing grizzy than I am.
This fight is gonna be one of the most exciting things we see all year
because their styles are very suited for each other. Manny is a fast
offensive fighter, Miguel is all-heart and never clenches his opponent.
Team Pacquiao made a VERY smart move by targeting Cotto because:
1. His defense is mediocre. Cotto has been put on his @ss and rocked
PLENTY of times, this plays into Manny's hands.
2. Cotto is relatively slow, he doesn't wow anyone with his hand
speed.
That's some expert analysis right there. Go read the rest, here. I might have to find a TV or bar to watch one or both fights.
[Shout out to Sportaphile]
