    lol @ people who think pac fans are afraid of this fight.

    im a fan of both fighters, but i can sit here and comfortably say that i think Pac will t.k.o. Cotto by the 7th or 8th rnd. Cotto is the one that has everything going against him in this fight. The guy cuts like crazy, I think Margocheato beat him down a notch, Clottey was slighted in their fight and I think he knows it. At the very least it should have been a draw. . . I think Cotto comes into this fight with the most to loose.

    And when he does loose, im just going to laugh at everyone who will claim its because he was 'weight drained'

    no matter what side of the fence your on, when your man goes down, you find a reason why he did. and Cotto fans do have a ligitemit argument on their hands because Margo-cheato. but 1 lbs is not that much. have the man take a **** and a **** and bam! he makes weight. cotto fans cant really be tooooo mad over 1lbs. can they?

    How is Floyd not a WW and Pac is not? They weight exactly the same.

    Nard would not only gain 2-3lbs at 160.

    Like I said before. Castillo signed to rematch Corrales at 135 and was 3lbs overweight, he was given 1 hour to lose some weight. He didn't even lose a lb.

    Losing a lb is not easy.

    When you are fit year round it is easier to lose waterweight to make weight. Cotto doesn't stay in shape year round. He has his off months.

    Cintron who stayed at near peak condition year round was able to 15-20lbs for 147.


    And Floyd can fight at 143 because he is only going to cut 3-5lbs.

    So is this fair to say. Pac-Cotto should not be for Cotto's title as he's not allowed to weigh in at 147?

    It is fair to say that it should not be for the title since is not at 147. However, IMHO this fight is more than an ABC title and whether Cotto defends the title or not will not be an issue.

    It's not for the belt. As for Cotto being out of shape that's his fault. PBF can make the weight he signs cause he stays in shape and is a professional. So if Cotto signs it but is not discipline in his training then why fault everyone but Cotto?

    Im sorry if whatever Cotto is doing to make 147 healthy is fine.

    But hes pushing the amount he can cut.
