    Thanks! :good I'm thinking that whatever weight they agree on should be ok, Cotto has options other than Pac so it's not like he needs this fight.

    because the science of boxing still adopts to the right human logic that: bigger fighter is matched in terms of strength / agility / stamina to a fighter the same size as him, that's why boxing have weight divisions and wrestling doesn't. Manny Pacquiao is still a lightweight by frame. He's not yet even a natural jWW yet, he struggled during Hatton fight to meat himself up to 138-140. Don't even mention the DLH fight, it's an exception - his training camp (nutritionists) is focussed on making him eat alot for a whole month, to atleast reach 142. After both fights, he's back in his normal walking weight of 133 to 135 in a week.
