Ballin’ With Manny Pacquiao
If you haven’t been watching HBO’s reality series “24/7 Pacquiao/Cotto,” you’ve been missing out. Chronicling the preparations and back stories of both fighters as they train for their November 14th showdown, the four-episode series has been great. Check out this clip as Pacquiao and his trainer Freddie Roach talk about his passion for basketball, its role in training camp and the agreement between the two about the sport and the approaching fight.

@ poppi i agree with you. its going to be close but i think cotto will win. Manny is fast and strong, but cotto is a natural welterweight, manny has never faught a true welterweight. He faught oscar when oscar was obviousy too old to box and ricky hatton was overrated. Dont get me wrong manny is a great fighter, but i think cotto will win this one.

Is Manny wearing a knock-off Nike T-Shirt?
Is that dude wearing a knock-off Green 76ers jersey (1:03 mark)?

Oh yeah. Never thought the old hood would ever be featured here. Repping the shithole city of Baguio, where knock-off apparel and broken jumpshots are as common as Freddie Roach’s tremors. Hell, even the Starbucks was a knock-off. Naw. LOL.
@BRUCE
That wasn’t a 76ers jersey, it was 79ers. But it was a cheap ass imitation just the same. He was prolly playing, or used to play, for the 79th street, district or something.
Gonna go traitor here and pick Cotto too, a good big man will always beat a good small man.

Pacman will dominate Cotto. He’s too slow and too big of a target for Pacquiao to just launch a couple of punches and evade even before Cotto can react.
24/7 is building up Cotto’s camp too much so it won’t look too one-sided

The handle is suspect too, to be easy on the guy.
