    I think Cotto make the 154 lbs weight on purpose for two reasons, one He can rehydrate in a comfort weight about 165 to 166 lbs for Him. Two thats His plan B option If Geale didn't make the weight He would fought a jr middleweight replacement, Roach said He had options if Geale fails to make the weight.

    why would Cotto need to make 154 when he's putting his 160lb. title on the line? he could just force any jr middle replacement move up. it's not like Cotto to inconvenience himself.

    It's not quite as deep or catchy as Cinnamonweight, but it'll do

    That's true. I'll try harder next time. I must admit, it was easier to name Canelo's division than Cotto's.

    LMAO Geale looks absolutely fine…..he has the physical advantages to make this fight interesting I just don't believe he has the right pedigree to win. I'll admit I'm not very excited about this fight I'm hoping the Canelo vs Cotto happens in Sept. Good s**** indeed.

    There's the key right there and the reason Cotto demanded 157 in the first place.

    He can't. WBC says winner must face GGG next or give up the belt.

    Cotto was right. He is too small for MW. Geale is nothing but a bully.
