    Cotto has never been much more than 160lbs on fight night. So 168lbs is a little far fetched.

    He was bigger but not massively.

    Cotto was never a big WW either.

    He was exactly 157 many a year ago when he was campaigning at Jr. WW.

    I'm sure hw exceeded 160 by the time he was at 147, 154 and 160.

    What a fail thread. Cotto may not even reach 168 between fights. He was dwarfed by a 170-ish Canelo. When he fought at 160 he fought at his weigh in weight. It would have been about 155. Yes he was naturally bigger than Pac and that was Pac's most impressive win, but come on.

    Youre pulling this out of your azz right? Because 11 years ago when he was 24 years old fighting at 140 he was weighed as much as 157 lbs. But at 36 year and after having moved up in weight he somehow weighs more?

    I said about 155. 157 is about 155. He was a big ww who would've been in the mid to high 150s throughout his ww career, and could well have been 158 for one fight then 155 for the next. But he sure didn't weight 168. Because he didn't even weigh 168 when he fought at 154 or 160.
