    this catchweight **** is so gay. cotto's a champ at 154, if he won't fight margo there he's essentially admitting he's afraid. Margo's gonna show him why he's daddy again regardless

    Because Pacquiao was not a belt holder at 147 and 154 when he made those fights with Cotto and Margarito. With Cotto, he only had one fight at 147 - which many people dismissed immediately because Oscar was weight drained, making him [Pacquiao] still an unknown commodity in that weight classe. And against Margarito, he rightfully had that fight at 150 (ignoring the bull**** title).

    Cotto, on the other hand, is wearing a 154 title around his waist, and has had two fights there already. For him to ask Margarito to come down to 150, doesn't sit well. But with that said, I can understand why Cotto would demand this. 154 benefits Margarito far more than it does him. He probably still holds some resentment for their last meeting, and feels he's in a position to ask for an advantage this time round. I can understand everyone will disagree with this, but **** it, if it's what Cotto wants, I support him. Make that ******* come down to 150 :good

    I always said boxing needs a 150 lb weight class. Pac started the division and more fighters will be following his foot steps. I know Pac owes the WBC money but maybe jose can name the new weight class the patchweight.

    Cotto's just making sure that Margo doesn't have 4 lbs of cement in his gloves.

    I dont recall Tony using plaster, I do recall they caught him attempting to use wraps that had iregularities in them... which was later discovered as compounds that can be found in hand lotion and skin cream.
    Never once has he used loaded wraps, he got caught attempting to use wraps that didnt seem quite right but even then if those wraps that they did test did have plaster in them why did the DA suddenly decide not to persue criminal charges when from the outset the DA said after the results came back from the lab they would be seeking a criminal case:huh
    So if your going to sit here and say he used plaster, you better explain why the DA backed out of a criminal case.... or just admit you dont know...
