    Pac would fight Martinez at 150, he's said it before. 150 is higher than he's ever weighed. Highest weigh in for Pac in his career is 145

    I don't care what they weight, I'd like to see that fight.

    Let Sergrio come in at 160 on fight night, so what?

    no truth in that about losing his titles. It was also for a worthless diamond belt if i recall.

    Okay.. So he was told to fight at 143 for his 147 title, but he managed to negotiate 145 for his 147 title? **** that makes it worse doesn't it?!

    pac won his belt at 147 and 154 with catchweights that gave him an advantage, that's all i see there

    The only similar thing is the opponent was "in the stable" but how about Margarito suspended for illegal hand wraps and had no license to fight at all and Pac getting hes 8th title. And Ortiz had a belt.

    What I'm asking is wasn't Cotto told he couldn't fight Pac at 147 for his title?

    Pac fought Hatton a few months before Cotto and weighed in at 138. Cotto didn't have to fight Pacquiao, he wanted to. 145 was a fair compromise and actually I'd say it was harder for Pac who had just weighed in at 138 to fight at 145 than it was for Cotto who had just weighed in at 146

    Pacquiao was asked if he would fight Cotto, Pacquiao said yes at 143. Cotto said 145 or no fight at all. Pac agreed to Cotto's demand. BTW, Pac weighed in 138 on his last fight and Cotto weighed 146 on his last fight. Pac went up 7 Cotto went down 1.

    For the question on the title, Pac was bringing Cotto the biggest purse in his life and has ever made to this time, why wouldn't it be fair for Cotto to put in his title on the line since its a WW fight?
