    You don't understand, and I doubt you ever will-no offense. You act like Cotto can just train, lose the weight, and weigh in at 145 the night of the weigh in lol... It could happen, and I hope it does, but I know better. If Cotto weighs in at 144 which is a pound below 145, like he weighed 146, a pound above 147 for Clottey, then it's 3 pounds we're talking about below the ww limit, a limit his body has been used to weighing in at...

    Nah, you're still wrong. You can **** around trying to make this out to be a big deal all you want, but anyone with a brain knows that one pound is nothing.

    Yep, this is right. :good

    :huh You act like Pacquiao's fan are forcing Cotto to do it.

    If Cotto's team accepting it what can you say??

    I'm equally a fan of both by the way.

    No, i don't ACT like anything. Look, the fight isn't a title fight in my eyes ok. It can be in your eyes, but it will never be a 147 lb title fight in my eyes, and I don't give a fuk what they both agree to.

    If this was the mind of 2003 Pac that we see today, we'd see this fight at 147, and not 145.

    I checked boxrec and in 8 welterweight fights, Cotto only weighed in at exactly 147 lbs only 3 times. So wtf is he bitching about?

    Explain, dick. What was the point of that post?

    The limit of the LWW division is 140. Anything above 140 and below 147 is the welterweight division.

    No, YOU are the *****.

    And the midget you're talking about has been knocking out elite opponents here and there at 140 and 147. The fact you're refering to Pacquiao as a midget, plus the fact you're saying that if Cotto beats the #1 p4p fighter in the world it would not be his biggest win, makes YOU look like a midget.

    A mental midget.

    its up to them to decide for that. The fight starts at the negotiating table. I prefer that a title should be in line. 145 is reasonable and is within the 147 welterweight limit. Cotto agreed to fight pac so his title should be in line. Anyone who wins this fight, his stock rises. Pac has his mythical p4p#1 to lose if he loses the fight.
