Cotto wanted it at 145, Pacquiao at 142; Pacquiao gives way to Cotto's demands

i dont know why pac wants it at 142. I think pac kicks his ass at 147 anyway. Cotto gets hit too much, and against a fast sharp shooter, that suicide

 

Cotto wanted it at 147.

Pac should have fought at 147.

If he wins the fight has an asterix next to it.

 

i read manny didnt care about making the figth at 147 it was roach whos asking for a lower weight

 

For 3 lousy lbs & 12 million bucks, so would you give in to his demands.

 

:good:good:yep

 

and that is his concession at the time when mosley also wants pac. team cotto knows that pac is smaller as to demand 145 and not 147.

 

i got your point, but cotto knows that if he would demand 147, pac has better option in mosley.

 

It has nothing to do what Pacquiao wants really. You don't think its all about Bob Arum who promotes both fighters and his manipulative ways?

 

I'm 6' 2" and 220 lbs and I would lose 80 lbs for that kind of money!

 

pac is cherrypicking , he theatened to go for mosely and when cotto called his bluff and didnt budge and shane said he would meet him at 140 , pac quickly went for cotto at 145 cause he knows that mosely would have a better chance of beating him

 

At 140? you must be out of your mind

 

Normally I believe cherry picking to be avoiding dangerous fighters and aiming for the titles of weaker ones.

Anyways people keep whining about Cotto having to go down. It's only 2 pounds. Pac has to go up around 6. He's still the smaller man challenging the bigger man.

In the end you can't blame business either. If you read all the stories out there. They are always about the forgotten boxer Mosley. They way he has handled his promotions, have led to his being jilted many times.
