    According to Cotto's nutrionist, the fight might not happen because he said he's not gonna allow Cotto to fight pacquao at 143 because it's too low. And Freddie Roach said he doesn't think Cotto is shot from what he seen and still on top of his game. The problem with this Roach is aware that if Pac fights Cotto at 145, that Cotto would fair much better than 143 and I don't think he's very confident in Pacquao winning because if he was he'd agree on the 145 weight limit. There's good chance this fight ain't gonna happen if Roach doesn't take the 145 Ib. weight limit agreement.

    if they want it at 143 Cottos people are right, he was having trouble making 140 and it hurt him in fights, so take a pass.

    Fair enough, at least they're honest about it rather than taking it and using it as an excuse if it doesn't go well.

    I say anything under 145 the purse must be brought to a more realistic level if Pacquiao is getting a 70/30 split to fight Cotto, then team Cotto should insist this fight happen at 145 if they want it down to 144 make the fight a 60/40 split.

    Well. Cotto already said he is not going to lose so much weight. Whatever the nutritionists says is irrelevant. He is just a employee and Cotto has the last word.

    True but it would dumb for Miguel to do it because it effect him more than it would manny fighting him at 145.

    Freddie Roach is afraid of Cotto.

    I'd personally prefer to see Mosley-Pac, and I really hope that happens.
