    I factored in weight in my initial analysis, keep up

    Manny won't just stand in front of Floyd and unload like he did vs Clottey though. He knew he could that because Joshua wouldn't fire back, but I expect far better in-out movement from Pacquiao in a fight vs Floyd. This is all just pointless speculation though, we'll need to wait and see if Money's balls actually drop first so the fight can get made.

    As usual, you either lie or guess and end up looking like a complete dick. Miguel Cotto's highest ever fightnight weight was 158 against Oktay Urkal at welter, and he looked bloated and sluggish. He has never been over 160. Wrong again! I can't be arsed educating you any more today, because all I'll get in return is more lies or guesswork, but I'll simply reiterate that saying Cotto was "drained and weakened" by weighing ONE POUND less than he did in his previous fight is utterly laughable - especially considering COTTO HIMSELF said in an interview afterwards that the weight wasn't an issue and that he felt great at that weight!

    Steady on, all Manny had to do was take a ****ing test. :bart Let's not pin point all of the blame on Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    I also expect more in-and-out movement, but he's still going to keep up a high work rate because that's Manny Pacquiao's game. I see him getting countered a lot more than he's used too, Floyd has comparable hand-speed and foot-speed to the Filipino sensation.

    Why compare these particular fights anyway given their contexts. Why not Duran/Moore vs. Pacquiao/Cotto instead?

    Umm he was 158 or 159 at 140lbs (that was on the ESB front page after 1 of his 140lb fights) and Im pretty sure hes been at 160 at WW but cant be assed to look it up. Shows you know **** all. I only raised this as 1 factor and like the sensitive ******* you were you jumed all over it

    I've already owned you on this thread, you know **** all about weight making and you havent got a reply for all the points I made because you've already blatantly displayed ur epic igorance on the topic

    Because theyre incompatible. Clearly it comes down to how high you regard Duran's performance given his age.

    :lol: You think using bigger text means you are right, when you can't provide any concrete statistics and I can??

    As usual: Fail.

    Cotto's highest ever weight was 158 or 159 against Urkal. He has never been above 160. I am right and you are wrong. Same ****, different thread. :good
