If Manny can beat Cotto at any weight...why does he ALWAYS demand a catchweight?

    So the hell what? These are grown men with advisers promoters managers attorneys, Nobody forced any fighter that Pac faced or that Floyd has faced to agree to a catch weight they made that choice freely on their own.

    So the moment any fighter signs to fight at a catch weight all excuses go out the window, when the fighter himself makes that choice he is saying he believes in himself enough to be able to compete at that weight.

    What happens as a result is simply what happens as a result your a grown man you made the choice now you have to live and deal with that result.

    Bottom line lets stop bitching about it these are grown men here stop acting like a bunch of God damn bitches for **** sakes. Boxing has on the horizon one of the biggest events that can ever be made and this fight is a threat to both guys here.... Both undefeated how often do you see two undefeated world champions on this level with this kind of following mix it up? you dont!

    be grateful we have this fight, ****ing enjoy it because if they do not rematch its going to be a very long time before we get something like this again.

    Still wondering what that has to do with Pacquiao draining Cotto and winning a 154lb title at a catch weight while *****s give him hell, yet Floyd is fighting a unification fight at 152lbs...

    And can you admit that Floyd and especially the *****s on here are nothing but hypocrites. I doubt it.

    Yes, 1 more. But add up all the belts he fought for at a CW, and it's like half of what Floyd is contesting for in a single Mega CW bout.

    Anyone saying Floyd isn't trying to disadvantage Canelo is full of it.
