A few more winks and the greatest Firepower fight on the planet will commence. Here are some quotable quotes gathered from news sources:
Pacquiao on Cotto: I feel stronger at this weight than I ever have. My punches are harder, my speed is intact. I keep getting warned about Cotto’s body attack but Cotto should be worried about my body attack.
Cotto on Pacquaio: I’m prepared for the speed of Manny. My hand speed is pretty equal to Manny’s. But can Manny’s power equal Miguel Cotto’s on Saturday night? I know what I’m capable of doing, and there is no doubt in my mind that I’m going to win this fight.
Pacquiao trainer Freddie Roach: “We’re in great shape for the fight.”
Cotto trainer Joe Santiago: ” Good luck Manny, you’re going to need it.”
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on who will win the Pacquiao-Cotto fight: “Of course the Pacman’s going to win. I mean, is there any doubt?
Manny Pacquiao on Krista Ranillo: “No comment”
Money for The Manny. God bless the star of Philippine boxing!
May the best fighter win!
