In fact, some would argue that the middle wt title was tainted as well as Leonard managed to have it at 12 rounds rather than the 15 that was customary for championship fights.
I hate that word 'weight drained' what aload of bull****. I agree Cobbler: Cotto weighed 146 against Clottley losing a couple of pounds extra will barely make any difference.
who really gives a **** about 2-3 pounds either way. i'm just happy the fight is going down. pac by KO. (thanks for the belts HOMO!) -oh, i mean cotto.
I've noticed alot of people are saying Pac should fight Cotto at 147. Why don't we turn it's on it's head and say it as it actually SHOULD BE. Manny Pacquiao is P4P Number 1 Cotto should fight Pac at his best weight. 140. 140 or no fight. Not possible? Well that's why there has to be a catch weight or a limit on the weight at fight night. Otherwise the P4P number one in the world is accomating his challenger too much. Eg: Cotto gets the biggest fight of his life, against the P4P number one and the biggest purse of his life AND HE GETS TO FIGHT A BLOATED MANNY PACQUAIO at 147 with a 13 Pound weight advantage, I think that scenario is ridiculously unfair considering Pac comes in at 147 and Cotto has come in at f**KING 160! 13 F*CKING POUNDS!!!!
I think Cotto beats Pac at 140 or 147. So the fight should take place at one or the other. Otherwise the fight comes with built in excuses.
