Manny Pacquiao has won world titles in eight different weight divisions making him one of the world's greatest boxers in history. The battle between him and Floyd Mayweather Jr. on May 2nd is probably the most exciting fight boxing fans around the world have been waiting for.

In 1998, Pacquiao won a fight against Chatchai Sasakul of Thailand, taking the World Boxing Council flyweight title—his first significant honor. He then moved into a bigger weight division, and beat Lehlo Ledwaba for the International Boxing Federation junior featherweight title, in his first U.S. debut. Pacquiao won the battle with a knockout after six rounds.

Later that year, in November, he also beat Puerto Rico's Miguel Cotto in a 12-round fight, for the World Boxing Organization welterweight title.

WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto thinks Pacquiao is going to give Floyd Mayweather Jr a ton of issues with his hand speed in their battle on May second.

Cotto didn't come right out and say that he supposes Pacquiao will win the battle, yet he does assume that Mayweather will battle with Pacquiao's hand pace and the force of his shots when he's on the assault.
During an interview, Cotto said, “I’ve been working with Freddie Roach for the last two fights, and I know what he’s capable of doing with Manny,” Cotto said via ESPN’s First Take. “I think he’s going to get Manny through Floyd’s mistakes. Manny is going to take advantage of…I’m rooting for Manny. I think the explosiveness and quickness of Manny is going to have a big impact on Floyd’s performance. The explosiveness will be an advantage. He can move from point to point in less than a second.”
