    That was some smooth racist crap out of your mouth.

    Clottey resorted to realizing that no matter how much he did the establishment would keep cheating him.

    The guy lives in Africa. 3 million dollars goes a long way.

    I agree that sometimes catchweights are necessary to level the playing field esp from a fighter in a higher division vs a fighter on a lower division. But in this case, Cotto has already been defeated in brutal fashion by Pacquio once so asking for a catchweight for their next fight is very unfair in my opinion. There is no need to level the playing field as skill wise, Pac is way above Cotto.

    So 147 would be 'fair', but 150 is an unfair advantage to Pacquiao?

    Cotto has moved up to 154, if he added some weight and is cutting as much weight as he was trying to make 147, yes it's an unfair advantage to Pac.
