    Well, if Pac were big as you think he is, then he could command a ppv all by himself, and not care whether his opponent has a big name. Nobody wants Arum paying them peanuts, that's why his undercards suck.

    You know what I realized that in TopRanks biggest fights, his undercards usually suck ... the last good PPV undercard he had was Pavlik vs Taylor II. ... before that who the hell knows.

    I don't think Pac has many options ...

    I like Pacman and I think he is a good fighter but honestly I dont like this catchweight for a title. Cotto is standing up and not being Bully by Pacmans Team because they wanted their way and nothing else. In any prize fighting whether its MMA, Kickboxing, etc etc. is that they all have weight divisions. Everyone fights at their own weight divisions they're capable of and if by all mean they want to move up in weight to fight or fight the champion then you have to fight at that weight class. I mean its not rocket science how this works but If Pacman wants to be a WW champion then move up and fight at WW limit. This catchweight for the belt is stupid and its crazy how people is agreeing with these terms which In my opinion its B.S.

    If its a catch weight fight then ok its a catch weight fight but if its for someone title will then move up and take it away from him. simple as that

    Marquez, Mayweather, Cotto, and Mosley are the only fighters that are PPV fighters and who would produce some money for Pacquiao.

    If Cotto goes in a different direction then that only leaves Mosley and Mosley isn't going to produce as many numbers as the other fighters have.

    I understand the weight issue but its not like Cotto can't make the weight ... he was 146 against Clottey and he looked tight ... I think the 2 pounds would do his physique good and maybe his stamina.
