Cotto less than 20 pounds from reaching the 145 limit!

Cotto probably walks around at 165-170. I heard he was up to 178 after the Margo loss. More guys should take after Hopkins. When he was a middleweight, he never blew up in weight, always staying around 165 so camp was used just to sharpen his skills.

 

i THINK COTTO WILL PUT ON 15LBS SO ILL SAY HE GONNA COME IN UNOFFICIAL AT 160

 

Cotto walks around heavier than Paul Williams.

 

#1. Besides what many of you might think, walking around at 20-25 lbs over their weight class is very common today. Cotto is a little stocky, but not really a big WW. DLH, Tito, Margarito, P.Williams, and a few others are over 5'10". Even Floyd is a 1 inch taller and has 5 inches more reach. Cotto is not that muscular either.
#2. He actually say he is about 17 pounds from the weight. He is been training 3 days a week for about 2 weeks only. He still has 3 months to lose 17 pounds. But I am sure Cotto will try to be as light as possible fight night without being dehydrated. He needs speed and stamina against Manny. I see Cotto losing 7 pound this month and the other 10 in the last two. That sounds perfect.

 

Doesn't Paul walk around at 160-165? He's tall as hell for his weight class (all three of the ones hes competed in actually), but frame-wise, he isn't that big at all. That's why I think he fits better at 154 than 160. At middle, you've got guys draining and walking into the ring over 170.

 

If Cotto comes in at 160+ during the fight, he may be able to punch harder but he will be too sluggish for Pacquiao. I believe it's safe to assume that he will be a sitting duck for Pacquiao. Coz Pacquiao won't go toe to toe with Cotto. Pacquiao will do the same thing he did to ODLH.

 

funny everybody is mentioning cotto's weight, lets start putting what guys like williams, clottey, margarito, mosley, and etc weigh on fight night?:good
