Cotto will KO Pacquiao like Ortiz did to Flash Elorde! Bet on the Boricua!

Thursday, November 5, 2009

By Lester Salvador

On February 15, 1964, a valiant Puerto Rican fighter by the name of Carlos Ortiz traveled to the Philippines and destroyed their hero Flash Elorde  in 14 rounds of a 15 round boxing match.  History will repeat itself on November 14th, 2009, this time it will not  go past the 5th round.

I have been reading many of these Manny Pacquiao followers comments on Youtube, they go on various websites leaving their ignorant comments, and I feel like throwing up at the ignorance and over confidence they have in their fighter.

I read comments like “Pacquiao is super fast and will KO Cotto easy” or “Pacquiao will destroy Cotto in 1 round, Cotto is too slow!”

Those type of comments make me shake my head.  First off, it seems they have no clue on styles and boxing science.  Just say Manny Pacquiao is fighting and they will automatically believe he will win without even studying the styles or knowing the opponent.

Ortiz went to the Philippines in 1964 to face the beloved and popular Flash Elorde and made many Filipinos shed tears.  I remember my father telling me how he was going for Ortiz, not because my father was Puerto Rican, but because Ortiz was the more polished and skilled boxer who had a size advantage over Elorde.  Ortiz won that night by KO in the 14th round and he also KO Elorde in the 14th round of their rematch several years later.

I know that many Filipinos will be hurt on November 14th,  I feel very sad for them because Manny Pacquiao is all they got.  The saying goes “Ignorance is Bliss”  and they are very naive when it comes to boxing and they will face the harsh reality that night.

I will say it again, “Miguel Cotto is bigger, better, and stronger than the Pacman”.  The only way Cotto will lose this fight is if he is no longer the same guy or is weight drained from the catch weight.

All those HBO 24-7 shows, those training video with Pacman hitting the bag with fancy moves are nothing for Cotto, remember the bag doesn’t hit back.  Miguel Cotto is the master of timing he beat faster guys in Zab Judah and Shane Mosley.  Speed is nothing new for Cotto, he will show how you counter speed on November 14th.  Manny Pacquiao will have no answer for the raw size and power of Cotto, believe that!

P.S-I am willing to bet 95 % of you Pacquiao fans have no clue who the legendary Carlos Ortiz is! that’s how limited your boxing knowledge is.

    Hello Lester! I am glad that you have been proven wrong. Just shows how ridiculously stupid you really are. I know you are hiding in a cave right now but once you get out of hiding, you can issue a public apology and admit that you were wrong. There are no excuses on why Cotto lost. Just admit it. You were wrong & a better fighter beat Cotto. As far as your history lesson on Ortiz beating Elorde, that lesson did not apply against the PacMan, as I have tried to tell you before. Instead, the lesson in history you should learn is that a superior smaller man has the ability to beat a good big man. If you had any sense, you can use this fight as a history lesson for future reference on how a smaller man can beat a big man. I hope you have the decency to admit you were wrong. If not, I have no respect for you. You certainly are 1 dumb mother f*cker.

    Hoy, “Boriqua Lester”:

    My father, a proud PINOY (a Tagalog, from Bulakan province) named LESTER SALVADOR, taught me about Boxing, and how to box as a kid. He taught me how to bob and weave, how to attack, how to throw hands with power, intensity, aggression and intelligence. He also taught me about The Warrior Heart, and how it is an essential part of being FILIPINO.

    Dude, I’m not gonna slander Boriquas, as growing up in NYC, I grew up in a Boriqua–indeed, a Nuyorican neighborhood. Your people have always shown me and mine love. So, I have no beef with any of your decent, valiant kinsmen, or any of the beautiful, intelligent women who are from the bloodline of your fine island.

    But don’t diss Pinoys, dude.
    Not now, not ever.
    Pinoys are BORN WARRIORS.

    Unlike your people (if you really wanna bring up history), we never bent or bowed to the Spanish Conquistadors. We never stopped fighting. We never adopted *their language* as our own. Indeed, we never bent our will to the Americans, when they declared that they were our rulers in the 1900s. We Never Stopped Fighting. And we never stopped fighting the Japanese, until they left our island in flames.

    Can you and yours say the same?

    Sorry, dude…but NO.

    YOU CAN’T SAY THE SAME.

    You wanted to get personal?
    You wanted to bring up history and ethnic pride?
    Take these facts and CHOKE ON THEM, you ignorant fool.

    MABUHAY ANG PACMAN!
    MABUHAY ANG MANDIRIGMA!
    MABUHAY ANG PERLAS NG SILANGAN!
    MABUHAY ANG PILIPINAS!!!!

    Lester Salvador, proudly PINOY/from NY, USA

    @pinoy lester

    Ay kabayan, pag may umaway sa iyow,
    ay dalhinmo dine sa batangas,
    sabihan mo laang ako at ipaghahasa kita ng de-doseng balisong at mainit na kapeng barako.
    Matitikman nila ang lupet ng batangenyow!
    Kung babag laang din ay wag nang mayabang at baka
    magripuhan!

    Your stupidity in boxing takes o much on your credibility. So who’s the liar now. Its hard to swallow but I think you better stop writing coz you will be eaten alive by paclanders. Many self proclaimed famous writers lost their credibility because of Pacquiao, so dont worry your not alone. but whatever you write right now I dont think if people will try to consider you seriously. Paclanders will have a wonderful time with you. Lol

    Hello to all Filipinos and Pacquiao Fans.

    Please be informed that I have moved to another section of another site. I no longer write and predict boxing matches.

    I have discovered that I have more accurate predictions in my new section and this made me soooo happy. It was me who first write about the Pacquiao and Krista affair. And boy how correct I was.

    So, if you want to read my articles, you can see me in the Showbiz section of this site.

    P.S. For every boxing news there is always a showbiz news behind it.

    LESTER SALVADOR

    Eat up your own words ehh? Boxing science, hmm for a second there you made me think you know what your talking about, i guess Pacman defied on what you called boxing science. Lets just say Manny just shut the hell out of your filthy mouth. No more science for you!
