    Pac ain't no cash cow. If Cotto says no, who could Pac fight that generates "big" money?

    Cotto cant make 143.

    145 might be fine. I dont think so though.

    147 would be no different from 145 with the exception that we know Cotto wont hurt himself draining down to 147.

    Mosley.

    Even though Mosley said negotiations with Pac are over, he would come crawling back in a second if Pac were to call him up.

    Mosley. :lol::lol::lol:


    Mosley Pac would do okay. It would sell less than Hatton-Pac.

    No fight then.

    And Pacquiao has ducked Cotto at 145. That's fine and undenaible and totally understandable.

    Im not saying he's ducked him.

    He should just fight him at 147. Even fight at 147.


    By making it a lower weight they are trying to drain Cotto, not limit the weight he puts back on.

    Probably. Mosley was really adamant in wanting a shot at Pac. Mosley already conceded to 60/40 and he said he was willing to drop to the low 140's to make the fight happen.

    But Pac doesn't give big fights to former steroid users. :good

    Pac has the best resume in boxing today.

    De La Hoya, Hatton, Barrera, Morales, Marquez says it all. Pac would be too fast for Mosley, unless Mosley is still taking his steroids.

    Mosley said he would agree to fight Pac at a catch weight. Pac said no, and Roach tried to say Shane would be considered too old. Yeah, he probably would be if you ask the 37 year old to fight at 143...lol.

    I am. Pacquiao doesn't want to fight Cotto at 145, that seems pretty clear?

    Y'now I think this is a real hard, hard fight for Manny Pacquiao. All the things that were said about Hatton: Too strong, too powerful, great body puncher. These actually apply when it comes to Cotto. This is a difficult fight and it seems crazy to take on a challenge like this when you have a fight of the scale of Mayweather - Pac just around the corner.

    It seems like the more Pacquiao achieves the more people expect. Cotto - Pac is going to be a great fight.

    Oh.

    True. I guess. But eh. I think Manny is maybe doubting himself more than he should rather than ducking.
