    Well, this is a pretty easy question to answer... Sergio IS too big for Cotto. Who doesn't think that? I mean, huge props to Cotto for taking the fight, but I don't expect to see him with his hand raised at the end of it.

    The only reason to bring up Floyd or Pac is to give credit to Cotto for fighting the guy who's called both of them out for the past 3 + years. Otherwise who cares. Same old same old on this forum smh.

    Man are you kiddin?

    Rios belongs on AMC's the walking dead, and was coming off a huge loss.
    Mosley was coming off a loss to Floyd.
    Margarito was coming off a loss to Mosley, didnt have a license, was exposed as a cheat, and off a subpar peformance against a Mexican Taxi Driver named roberto Garcia.
    Clottey has just lost to Cotto, and offered little to no threat to Pacquiao.
    Cotto was catchweighted even though Pacquiao had been rehydrating to 147 since his days at 135, and Pac just drained DLH down to 147, even though like I said before, Pac came in at 148 against Diaz. DLH didnt even rehydrate when he fought Pac.

    STOP THE LIES.

    Pac can't fight anyone with a heartbeat and win. He tried Tim, LOST. He tried Marquez. And always looked subpar and got KTFO.

    I actually like Pacquiao, it's his fans that give him a bad rap.

    Rios was a tune up after Pac's devastating loss, not the best opponent in the world but by no means the worst either & since when is losing a competitive fight on points a huge loss?

    Mosley was coming off a draw with Mora at 154 not the Floyd loss.

    Margarito is an exposed cheat & was already stopped by Mosley but that doesn't take away from the fact that Pac moved up to light-middle & broke his face.

    Clottey was coming off a very close loss to Cotto which a lot of people had him winning.
    Cotto was fought at 145 which he agreed to without any problems as he weighed 146 for his previous fight with Clottey & his S&C coach said they'd make 145 without any problems.

    De La Hoya was not drained down to 147 by Pac, he was already on his way down to 147 for the Mayweather rematch with Floyd, thats why he fought Forbes at a catchweight, Pac was dragged up to 147 by De La Hoya despite only having 1 fight at 135.

    Check the facts.

    Cotto's balls are 1000000 times the size Mayweather's will ever be

    Pac is fighting in his 8th division. Get back to us when Floyd starts fighting at light heavyweight.

    I never get all these 160 lb fighters calling out Floyd and Pac saying they will go to 154 or lower for the fight.

    If they wanted the fight they should just go to 154 and clear it out to earn the fight.

    The fact that Floyd found a way to NOT face the very fighters the boxing public called for should tell you something. The quality of "champ" that Floyd brings to the table is weak.

    Definitely a psychological coward and not in any way a throwback fighter.

    I think he's also too big for Cotto so I don't really get this thread.

    I was being sarcastic lol, just because he's fought there a few times doesn't mean he's comfortable. He doesn't even make 154 lol. He fights there when theres a good money fight, i'm sure he'd much rather fight at 47. The guy can't even make 54 and people are callin for him to fight 160's... it's just stupid. Sergio coming down to 54 loses credibility for me same with golovkin. Cottos big enough to fight at 60 (theres maybe a catchweight).. floyd isn't. Thats when size starts to have an impact instead of the old 'size don't win fights skills do'
