Undefeated super-welterweight Shawn Porter, the main sparring partner of Manny Pacquiao, asserted on Wednesday that he wasn’t bothered by the Filipino’s vaunted power but admitted he was awed by the pound-for-pound king’s other inimitable trait.

“Its’ not much about his power, it’s his speed,” Porter told the Bulletin.

The Ohio-bred Porter is said to be a clone of Miguel Cotto, who Pacquiao faces on November 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Team Pacquiao awaits Cotto ‘clone’

BAGUIO CITY - There was a faint, however palpable, murmur of doubt from the boxing online community when trainer Freddie Roach said Manny Pacquiao will weld Miguel Cotto’s behind to the canvas when the two clash on November 14 in Las Vegas.

Shawn Porter, though, thinks the doubters are in for a surprise. “He’s going to shock the world again,” Porter said.

That’s from a guy who earned his share of applause from an appreciative gym crowd after landing jarring punches and crisp combinations at the Filipino pound-for-pound icon Thursday, the second day of sparring for Pacquiao.

Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Cotto

After winning against Ricky Hatton, Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao (49-3-2, with 37 KO wins) became the best pound for pound fighter of the world and the most "crowd taker" of all time. Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto have tentatively agreed to fight in Las Vegas on November 14, giving the world's best pound-for-pound boxer a very challenging fight against a highly ranked opponent -- and ensuring that we won't see Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather any time soon.

During the press conference in Los Angeles, a famous nba basketball star of on his new hometown Ron Artest made his appearance. Artest said "this is a must watch fight." Manny Pacquiao was accompanied by his trainer Freddie Roach while Miguel Cotto was accompanied by his father and his adviser during the press conference. Pacquiao promised that he will train hard for this fight because now that he able to see face to face Cotto, he understood that Cotto is big and looks strong and so he need to train well for their fight on November. Cotto is two weeks ahead of training against Pacquiao but the Team Pacquiao is confident that their training to be is enough to defeat Cotto. Roach even admitted the Cotto is Solid, but Pacquiao will still triumph.

Manny Pacquiao Age: 30 Division: Light welterweight Belt: The Ring Belt / IBO 140 Lbs Country: Philippines Record: 49 - 3 - 2 KO: 37 (75.5%) Rounds Boxed: 293 rounds Height: 5'6 1/2" Reach: 67" Last five Opponents: Ricky Hatton - W TKO 2 Oscar De La Hoya -W TKO 8 David Diaz - W TKO 9 Juan Manuel Marquez - W SD 12 Marco Antonio Barrera - W UD 12

Miguel Angel Cotto Age: 28 Division: Welterweight Belt: WBO Welterweight Country: Puerto Rico Record: 34 - 1 - 0 KO: 2 7(77.14%) Rounds Boxed: 226 rounds Height: 5'7" Reach: 67" Last five Opponents: Joshua Clottey - W SD 12 Michael Jennings - W TKO 5 Antonio Margarito - L TKO 11 Alfonso Gomez - W RTD 5 Shane Mosley - W UD 12

A Ring Magazine writer said if Pacquiao wins against Cotto there'll be no question and the Filipino effectively cements his legacy. This guy is naive. As I've said before, you can find a loophole in a boxer you don't like. But I agree with him Cotto is the toughest boxer Manny Pacquiao has faced so far in his career and Freddie Roach has set up an eight-week training camp to put his ward into fighting shape.

Pacquiao vs Cotto is a non-title fight as the latter won't stake his crowns despite that the match is generating more buzz than Mayweather vs Marquez. Fight fans expect a war and most likely they will get it - this is the drawing power of Pacquiao vs Cotto.

A Cotto vs. Pacquiao fight would be one of the biggest of the year in boxing. But it wouldn't necessarily be a good thing for boxing fans, because it would also be a step away from the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather superfight that everyone wants to see.
