nah roach wouldnt let pac fight if cotto was 147...and to the dumbass that said cotto asked for 145.....thats only because roach wanted 142 and cotto wanted the fight.
You been misinformed by inaccurate information Team Pac wanted 143, Cotto wanted 145, Cotto changed his mind and tried to backpedal to 147 when Pac said he wanted the title on the line, WBO basically forced Cotto to take the fight or only Pacman will be fighting for the belt. As an incentive team Pac is willing to pay for Cotto's sanctioning fees. Thats how its done, so quit bitching both fighters agreed and signed the fight no excuses.
Untrue. Roach said he's ok with Cotto coming in at 147. And even though Roach said that they'll call the fight off if Cotto comes in heavier than that, my opinion is that Roach would probably give a half more pound of leeway and accept the fight if Cotto comes in at 147.5 (which Cotto won't, because then he won't be able to retain the title either way). http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=518774&publicationSubCategoryId=69
Let's see Cotto at the weigh in before we judge, if he looks a lot worse than... hmm. We still have to see him make 145.
How?? by trying to pull out a "Cotto was drained, thats why Pac won! yahoo!" Dude you suck at worshiping your boy. atsch Atleast Cotto's fans knows that their fighter is coming well prepared and is ready to beat Pac. Pac by KO...:bbb
cotto should have refused... why does every hater pin the 145 catch-weight on team pacquiao? if the challenged team sees no sign of winning then they should have refused the challenge, they accepted the fight and the consequences that come with it. team cotto are not the whiners unlike some cotto fans. remember: no fight will happen regardless of who challenges and what the conditions of the fight will be unless the other party agrees to the challenge. :deal
One picture does not prove anything. Wait until the introduction and see how much sweat is on Miguel's body. I think he will be fine as far as weight. It is the handspeed of Pacman which will be the problem.
good point. I hope they do not announce Miguel weighing 143. People were pretty shocked when Thomas Hearns weighed 145 for Leonard in 1981.
Cotto at the MGM looks like Micheal Jackson right before his death. He probably weighs the same amount MJ did at death, 135lbs. He better eat alot before now and the weigh in, maybe the same stuff all those Puerto Ricans ladies eat to get that glorious bowling ball belly that they so proudly display underneath skin tight baby belly t-shirts.
