I'm not against the catch weight as I really don't think it will hurt Cotto's chances. And I don't have a problem with belts being on the line at a catch weight either, it's been done before so it's not as if Pac is the only one doing it. But I do have a problem with this belt in particular being on the line given the historical significance of it potentially being Pac's 7th belt in his 7th division. History shouldn't be made at a catch weight.
Why should he put the titles on the line for a catchweight? ****, it's two goddamn pounds. Man up all the way, Pac.
agreed ^. and besides of all the "*****" moves, how is Cotto not defending his title one of them? if you ask me, the fight being at a catchweight is pretty puss. the sad thing is, it is 2 god damn pounds, and to think if this fight was at straight up Welter .. oppose to a catchweight of 145 the title not being on the line wouldn't be an issue. just something to consider.
They should ban all belt orgs from attending this honorable event between two great warriors, any member of the WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO or any other belt org, should be arrested for coming within 500 yards of the event. The judges should be found by the state.
all i can say is that for those who said that cotto's title should not be included are bunch of hypocrites who doesnt want to witness a history making fighter in the likeness of pac. what the hell. cotto fought last time at 146. 1 fukin pound. what is the scary part of that.? this catch weight thing is not be the first time in the history of boxing....atsch it is not like pac has been campaigning forever at 147, 140 and 135 ... ***** ***** *****.... people are getting scared of the midget asian getting the first 7 world championship plus his 3 lineal titles.
Miget? Shut the fuk up you freaking moron. Cotto and Pacquiao are inch apart in height. Both are inch apart in reach. Both are inch apart on body size for god sake. Shut up about "miget" crap. You think "1pound" is easy? I guess you know cause you box before right?
yeah ryt, another ***** :good scared?? as if pac is a regular welter?? :|:| pac is just dropping by once again in your boy's division to get his 7th... oh, cotto last time weighed 146.... ***** :deal
Pac has balls the size of church bells. He is doing something that Void refused to do. Void refused to fight Pac, Cotto, Mosley and Margarito.
o one more thing.. since cotto made it at 146, well he could pluck his eyebrows to make it to 145. very simple to reduce weight, isnt it? he regularly plucks his eyebrows, i dont see any problem in my suggestion :yep:yep
He's willing to fight in his division but not put his title on the line. Who the **** isn't maning up. He's saying even if I loose at welterweight I'm still the champ. No **** that. If he gets beat anywhere between 141 and 147 Manny is the ****ing champ. You little whinny Floyd and ex-oscar nut huggers ***** moan and complain about catch weights, FYI dumbshits Oscar-Pac wasn't at a ****ing catch weight it was fought at welterweight. Let me let you in on something outside of these forums with its armchair experts no one gives a ****ing **** about catch weights. But you know what they do understand. They do ****ing understand a fighter not putting his ****ing title on the line. That the ****ing understand. They do understand it when a champion is beat but is still the champion. After 4 decades of Don ****ing King they understand that ****ing perfectly. It just personifies the corruption that has turned the whole damn country off to the sport. And you know what. It hurts the sport 100 times more than any ****ing catchweight ever ****ing did. Hell catch weights have proven time and time again to be good for the sport. Its been vital in giving the fans some of the best fights in history. I cant say that about non-title glorfied exibitions. Its only second guessing nut huggers that got to find something to ***** about since they cant pull themselves away from the ****ing computer who give a **** about catch weights 99.9% of people don't even know what the **** that means. Get over your ****ing selves. Cotto has to put his ****ing title on the line. If he is beat yet keeps his title which is the most likely outcome it will be devastating to the sport. ****ing non-title fights are way way way way worse than catch weights no matter how you ****ing look at it. ****
