“He’s incredible.” Manny Pacquiao Names the Hardest Puncher of His Career

Former eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao has revealed who he considers the hardest puncher he ever faced in his career.

“Miguel Cotto. I still feel some of the punches he landed on me. Standing on the ropes is not the best place to be when you’re fighting him. He’s accurate, too. He’s incredible,” Pacquiao said.

Manny Pacquiao (62-8-3, 39 KOs) and Miguel Cotto (41-6, 33 KOs) fought on November 14, 2009. Pacquiao scored knockdowns in the third and fourth rounds, and early in the 12th the referee stopped the bout after a multi-punch combination from the Filipino icon.
