We decided to break down the punching skills of the two killers to determine which man’s punch has more concussive ability.
Miguel Cotto is the bigger man with the higher KO percentage but Pacquiao is the bigger puncher. To a certain degree speed is power combined with leverage and Pacquiao’s punches are delivered with lighting quickness and perfect leverage. Cotto is a “heavy” puncher with a withering body attack but he is not so much a one-punch KO artist. Pacquiao's straight-left is thrown with rocket launcher speed and is a pinpoint accurate shot that can finish any welterweight. The Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto boxing betting odds Total is at 9.5 Rounds with the OVER at -135.
Cotto’s left hook to the body is brutal but it takes less force to hurt a man with a body shot than a head shot. Pacquiao’s power has an explosive nature and his core strength with his Bruce Lee like abdominal muscles are built for torqueing force. Cotto is relentless in his pressure and throws hard punches with leverage but his punch velocity is well below Pacquiao’s. The Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto boxing betting odds give Cotto a 25% chance of winning.
