    Okay so its 3 but only two you can argue was attempt to drain.... DLH and Cotto However Cotto has said all along until recently of course that the weight wasnt a problem

    if there were to be a rematch and Manny isnt comfortable at 154 why not avenge at 150? I mean really Cotto wanted to rematch Margarito at 150 and would have jumped on it if Tony agreed.

    But we know why Miguel doesnt want the fight has nothing to do with the weight if you ask me it has everything to do with the beating he took in fight one he is mentally shattered

    That wasnt a catch weight..... DLH moved down just like Dawson did to face ward... Besides if it wasnt a fight with Pac DLH planned to move down and rematch Floyd at 147 No ***** had a problem with that...
    They only have a problem when its pacquiao doing that.....

    Sounds like what the so-called '*****s' said to Pac and fans before the Bradley fight. And how much energy did you burn up arguing against them for that logic?

    Oh, the irony. :verysad

    The money is the best way of telling who's full of **** and who isn't. Like Manny thinking he deserves 50/50 when clearly he doesn't. It weeds out alot of excuses being said from dumb people who don't take it into consideration. Like this for example. Cotto deserves more than 7.5 million which is a joke especially when Cotto has better options than Manny at this point and it's nothing but a smoke screen by sorry ass team Pac who know damn well the fight was lost over the catch weight.

    And you forgot the worst example of all when he made De La Hoya make 145 pounds. Oscar hadn't fought at welter weight for 7 years before then.

    Again Pac haters are okay with Dawson coming down a division no room for argument anymore here.... Oscar offered the fight, Manny had just moved up 2 divisions for that fight.... end of discussion :deal

    Glad he called it off. If he has issues with catchweights he should have never accepted the first fight to begin with. Why risk it when he knows that if the weight slightly weakens him hardly any fans would recognize and acknowledge it, considering the majority watching are out of shape ******s.

    Oh please, now that's a new one. :lol: DLH asked Pacquiao to move up, they moved up two weight divisions, they sure as hell won't move up three. DLH had to move down to make it possible and he did.

    This one doesn't take a genius to figure out. Cotto promotes himself so he doesn't need pacman to make that kind of money. Not to mention that his legacy stands to benefit far more from wins against Trout and Canelo than career ending loss to Pacman at a catchweight.
