Pacquiao’s weakness exposed

Joe Chavez, who once worked for Manny Pacquiao as a cutman, said he holds the key to the victory of Miguel Cotto over the Filipino pound-for-pound king when they clash on Nov. 14 in Las Vegas.

While Chavez has a different role inside Team Cotto with Joe Santiago as head trainer, the seasoned cornerman has immersed himself so much in Pacquiao’s corner that he claims that he knows some of Pacquiao’s innermost secrets.

“When attacked, he (Pacquiao) doesn’t know what to do,” Chavez told the Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Dia over the weekend.

Before the Argentine-born Miguel Diaz was recruited by Team Pacquiao, Chavez had been a familiar fixture in the corner manned by Freddie Roach, having aided Pacquiao in his bloody brawl with Juan Manuel Marquez and a few of other fights.

“I have other work here (in Team Cotto), but if they ask me, I can help and do my comments and I know Pacquiao very well,” said Chavez.

Aside from Team Cotto’s observation that Pacquiao doesn’t do well when he is the one being pursued, Chavez believes that Cotto’s natural advantage in size will eventually prove to be Pacquiao’s downfall.

“Cotto is (like) a bull. Pacquiao is fast, but Cotto has more power in the punch and is strong. This will be the difference. Pacquiao has never fought as strong as Cotto," said Chavez.

  1. cotto is like a bull without a horn and pacquiao is like a lion ready to jump over the bull and eat it, don't underestimate the power of the lion, a small animal but it will tear off your skin and bit you little by little.

  4. hey man we are talking about pacquiao and cotto, and clottey ran out of gas that's why he couldn't even threw a punch to cotto but if it will happen that to pacman, cotto will be sorry, because pacman has high resistance for this coming fight and that left eye you mention is the target of pacman to burst that scar again, and you will see it will be more nasty than you expect,once the lion smell some blood that means its time to kill the prey

  12. cotto is like a bull...and so is hatton who never stops going forward...

    see what happened?

    that would be sweet dreams cotto...

  13. bullshit article, pac knows how to react when he's attacked - look at what happened to the idiot hatton, he kissed the canvass early cause he didn't even know the word defense...

    anyway cotto knows defense and offense...so it would be the toughest fight for pac...

    still rooting for pac though whether he wins or lose - no allibies...defeat is defeat and hopefully the same goes with the cotto fans...

    no allibies like, he was drained bla bla bla...

  14. Its not speed, power and agility but its prayer will win this fight..

    This coming November will be the fight between Cotto and Manny. It will be Manny's toughest fight considering Cotto is bigger and stronger. Boxing experts says it will not be an easy fight, everything can happpen to anyone. Manny's asset is his speed, power and agility, on the other hand, Cotto has power too and can bring more damage to Manny. If we try to take a look at Pacman's last two fights its amazing Manny destroys the defense of Golden Boy in eight convincing rounds and he demolished the Hitman in just two rounds.

    This November I'm predicting that Manny will win this fight, Cotto will fight not only the Pacman in the ring, an unseen hand will stop the punches of Cotto. The prayers of Millions of Filipino fans will be loud enough that God can easily hear it and grant their wishes.If we are observant enough, everytime Manny fights he puts himself to God first before going to battle. God will do battle for every person who remembers Him. He will send angels to hold lucky punches. This is a strong indications that God listens to Manny everytime because Manny is always praying to God for guidance and safety.

  15. you pacman fans are taking this too far. you don't wanna accept the reality of the fact that Manny can lose this fight. and leave god out of this, cotto is a firm believer as much as pac is. you guys make silly, no foundation comments all the time. and act as if speed, agility will be key. your right!! it may be key, but cotto has defeated that before. whom ever wants this more and trains efficiently will win. both fighters have an excellent past. but in this fight everything changes.Manny is human remember. You want Manny to win so much that you forget the reality of the sport. and you guys are forgetting he is fighting a top notch welterweight. the comments that the majority of you pac fans post are extremely childish and you need to wake up and stop being so close minded. its ok to state why you think pac will win, but don't forget who he is facing. and accept that he can in fact lose. will he lose? he might just as much as he can win. i like both fighters. Manny is a warrior. but I believe their is more hype to him going into this fight than ever before. and that might back fire. we will see on 11/14.

  21. Don't get too far that God will block someone else's punches in favor of another. God is not partial in the first place, so nobody should claim HIS guidance and assistance against another person. What makes a fighter wins his game is his talent not God's favor whatsoever. One may or can only pray for less injury for himself but not for more damage to another person in order to win. Nobody should grab God inside the ring in this case. God isn't the kind you perceived HIM to be because in every nation, language or color, every person who fears God is acceptable to Him. Support your own choice from the boxers but never and never claim God's favor for that. Nobody knows who will win not unless the fight is over.

  22. For those who don't believe in God, it's your choice but never taunt Him because everything around you, you yourself, your life, the air you breathe, the sun above just to name a few were all from Him or came to be because of Him. Even your own dog, can you make one for yourself? It is not to man even to direct his own steps. Scientists have proven that when that part of your brain which controls balance is impaired, it is impossible for man to make a step without stumbling afterwards. Can anyone make a brain for himself? Thank God above that even if you didn't believe in Him you were still given with that chance to live and enjoy the marvels of His creations.
