Pac later admitted that he saw a couple of opportunities to finish the fight but he knew Cotto’s kids and family were watching ringside. He also saw his kids crying during that first knock down and he didn’t want them to witness their dad getting knocked out cold. Plus Cotto is a kind and classy guy and is a good friend of Manny.

[@johnphilip8848]

Somewhere along the way, Manny realized the speed and power of his punches could permanently hurt his opponents, and he lost some of his viciousness. I think it happened after that scary KO of Hatton. There were several fights after that where he could have finished his opponent but held back. Look at his fight with Margarito where he was pleading with the referee to stop the fight. Margarito had a fractured orbital and couldn't see Manny's punches coming anymore. Pacquiao could have absolutely finished him whenever he wanted, but Margarito would have probably been permanently blind if Pacquiao went for the kill.

It seems Pacquiao was holding back enough, though giving him a beating, until the ref calls it out.

Kindness is strength

[@leechrec]

Manny's a good dude. Imagine if Pacquiao was truly a savage who took pleasure in hurting opponents.

[@DavidKaiokenX20]

Many of his opponents would have left on a stretcher.

[@rainbowhouse3427]

We would never know who he is because he would be in prison.

[@lodxmas]

It is actually worse for Cotto's brain to keep punching him then a quick ko.

[@joefryhutagaol4276]

​@@lodxmas Cotto is still OK, till this day, if i'm not mistaken. But a KO, infront of the children, it's too hard for me to imagine. Brain damage of a KO is bad too, if you want to compare. Coz the Brain got shock so hard that it stop responding.🙂

[@lodxmas]

@@joefryhutagaol4276idk about that cause doctors always say about boxing that it is the repeated punches that cause the more damages. You lose brain cells every punch you take, so taking 1000 jabs to the face is actually worse than a one clean but quick ko. They even say that it is not the 2 fights a year that cause cte but more the repeated hard sparring session every week.

[@nathanielrobles3284]

I just knew this now. It would have been more brutal if Manny wanted to finish him. Just wow!

[@ratedray1]

I feel like this what Bud did but EJ made it so easy for him to catch him. He could have gotten my boy out of there under 6 but he didn’t want to completely wash him plus it wouldn’t have made any sense at all to do it again

[@flacko_jody2130]

Its also not true. Those guys arent taking it essy in there. Cant always believe brian callen bro😅

[@christianlingamen1754]

@@flacko_jody2130nah it’s true… multiple times in this fight manny was literally looking at the ref to just stop the fight… LITERALLY LOOKED AT THE REF TO TELL HIM TO STOP THE FIGHT

pacquio is humble men like khabib nurmagomedo ❤ real champions

[@kusaguma]

He didn't want to knock him out. He want to him in the ring to be his punching bag😂😂

[@rainbowhouse3427]

Pac in his prime was insane, dude was a killer.

[@michaelphilip1]

He gets paid by the round thats why. He learned his lesson when he knocked Hatton out at the 2nd round.

[@peko7553]

genuine question. what about tyson during his era especially 1st round KOs?

[@michaelphilip1]

@@peko7553 im not talking about fight contracts I was talking about Mannys sponsors outside the fight. The brands he is the spokesperson of.

[@peko7553]

@@michaelphilip1 maybe so but then again its more than a decade of time distance between Pacquiao and Tyson when it comes to diff. set of rules and how they reward the fighters both winner and loser/champion and challenger

[@paulcampos5465]

Wrong. Lol who told u that ?? . They have a 100% garunteed purse. They sign contracts 😂

[@anthonybaker2499]

He keep having that same mindset he gonna end up getting caught

[@kikodougies]

Pacquiao is still snoring from that Marquez KO.

[@oddy5705]

Miguel Coto was a Mean machine. Very hard to win. Gotta love these fighters. Dont think we are going to see another generation like them for a while

[@Fadeadvato]

Pacman is a fuking beast 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@Yuenix]

Miguel Cotto and Manny Pacquiao both one of my favorite boxers , they are humble and they just came to box as a man in showing love and respect for the sport and for everyone.

[@Jose-ze1sn]

Cotto is one favorite boxers. Cool, calm, doesn't complain. Ronald Winky Wright another one of my favorites. Calm and composed as well.

[@baratong267]

This was his peak….

[@michaelrawiri]

Manny is a true blood, looks beyond the ego💪😎

[@raymondpeter4827]

Manny is so humble you will never heard this kind of story came from him, usually from other people, that is why people love him, the Goat Manny Pacquiao!

[@kevinfarris9859]

Knocking him out would've been more merciful than a prolonged ass whoopin.

[@makojazz]

Yeah but also risking getting knocked yourself out, but that didn't happened.

[@criscris428]

honestly he could've knock him out, there was so much difference in dimension in their movement in that fight. he probably didn't cuz he wanted a show. pacquiao's lowkey a showman.

[@kosan2875]

bullshit. He tried but couldnt and didnt want to punish cotto anymore and reduce his volume of punches

[@ArsacioJJulioJr]

He's a professional, respectful

[@user-zo4bf3cn2p]

That's why I love manny he understands and knows that he won. Bruce lee to he didn't want to hurt the opponent and he he would say to others " leave him if he gives up." Respect for trying to fight the greatest

[@pr3ttyb0yfl4cko]

He figured out Cotto and basically know it's over. He know he ain't losing, so he just wanna finish the fight without knocking out Cotto.

[@paligsok3691]

Thats what you call respect from the GOAT!

[@glennalvarez0223]

PACMAN had a lot of respect to cotto because cotto was a very nice person.

[@MrJ691]

Pacman was the greatest of that generation

[@adnan4688]

Two absolute fucking legends.

[@reilbongo1728]

Thats our people's champ,❤️the one and only,one of the greatest of all time,💪💚❤️💙

[@popezk3068]

Manny's always humble and down-to-earth. He's truly a legend to be remembered.
