    On the 7 day weigh in he weighed in at 167.5, Cotto came in at 163.

    That's a lot of weight to lose in a week.

    What's weird is that Geale was 158 at the 30 day weigh in.

    I bet Geale will be very lethargic come fight night.

    I was hoping Geale had a great camp and that weight wouldn't be an issue.

    Perhaps it's a strategy, come in heavy and concede some of the purse so he can be at his best.

    What do you guys think?

    It could be a lot worse. I'm sure he'll be fine.

    Will they just promote Cotto to super middleweight champ if Geale doesn't make 160? :think

    How do you weigh 158 a month out and then weigh 167.5 seven days out?

    How is that a strategy?

    Nothing about this fight has ever been right.

    He was never 158, that was an error - probably 168. 10lbs can be done comfortably - most fighters are 6-8lbs over with 2-3 days to go
