    I don't like catchweights period. I don't care who where, what or why. We have a lot of divisions now so there's absolutely no need for them IMO. If you think he's too big then don't fight him, simples.

    I don't think it made a tangible difference vs Ditto which makes it all the more pointless to have that asterix next to the bout.

    He was either dehydrated or weight drain cause he sure as hell look weak. It's a shame that Pacquiao who many ppl say ain't afraid of anybody would force Cotto lose a pound in a 145 pounds catchweight so that Pacquiao will have a big advantage.

    Without cotto having time to hire a new trainer. Cotto was bought off from his own ****ing promoter that fight.

    $$$ talks

    Hes by far the best pound for pound fighter. Nowhere near the 2nd best of that era though. Hundreds of fighters of that era would beat Pacquiao. The best fighter of that era was Vitali Klitsckho and 2nd best probably Wlad Klitsckho.

    Vitali destroys Mayweather and Pacquiao. And many of the guys that he destroyed would KO Pacquiao and Mayweather. So hes a better fighter than Pacquiao or Mayweather, period.

    Listen, Pac obliterated my favorite fighter in Oscar. Yea Oscar was washed/shot up blah blah but he was still the favorite if memory serves. And I've never cared for Pac, but the run he had was epic and even with the few losses he's had, he still rates above Floyd in my P4P list, just because he beat better opposition and did it in extremely impressive fashion. And I don't even think Floyd beat him either. I don't think either man did enough to win tthat fight but Floyd certainly didn't do enough.

    Of course he does but so does audley harrison but that doesnt mean theyre better fighters and more accomplished. The two best p4p fighters of the era are pbf and pac vitali isnt even in the discussion.

    Your dumbass doesnt even think pbf beat oscar wtf do you know? You also picked pac to beat pbf despite the fact that i tried telling you in multiple threads before the fight that pbf would beat him easily but you wouldn't listen to sound logic because you're a bitter and irrational pbf hater. Now youre saying pbf didnt even beat pac lmfao that right there shows how you cant be taken seriously when discussing pbf. Pbf ud #48 now then and forever deal with it.:deal:

    Pound for pound they're better than Vitali. But on a pure boxing basis hell no they're not.

    Pac came up from 112 champ. The fact that he was even competitive with Hatton and Cotto is unbelievable. Let alone sending them to the hospital.
