    Hi.
    I am no *******, but you see on many message board saying Pac is a coward for wanting catch weight etc. I think he belongs at 130 to 135 personally.
    I think Pac has balls even thinking of fighting Cotto and COtto will knock Pac out.

    But to say Pac is a coward because he doesn't want to fight heavier fighters natural weight is unfair. The guy started at what? 106 pounds or something.

    So lets say Pac does win the next fight (which I doubt he will) if he steped up and challenged Pavlik but wanted a catchweight at 158. Would you be all up in arms about Pac requesting that? Would he still be a coward?

    Pacquiao is a great fighter and far from a coward. However, I don't think he belongs at 130, 135 would be his ideal weight from what I've seen and he could still get away fighting effectively at 140. He should be admired for fighting welterweights. I think the whole coward thing comes from maybe trying to make Cotto go too low in weight, it was never about him being a coward and we can obviously see he's not coward since he's fighting Miguel at a weight where he will probably be very strong and healthy.

    Maybe next he can challenge Vitali Klitschko at 195. Maybe David Haye at 180. Or Hopkins at 168.
