    no but pacquio has no one but himself and his team to blame if someone out there doesn't give him full credit for the win. The catchweight **** was stupid.

    Cotto weighed in at 146lbs for Clottey.

    He weighed in at 145lbs for Pacquiao.

    Anyone who thinks 1 pound makes the slightest scrap of difference needs to be taken away, shot and buried like Adrianna was in The Sopranos.

    I can **** more than 1 pound after a large meal.

    He looked great in round 3 also. It was round 4 that he stopped throwing effective power punch combos.

    Nah.....the catch weight was just. Cotto didn't have any problems making 146 nor was there any issues with 145. I think given the fact that PAC was the smaller guy moving up in weight to face the bigger man the catch weight was what it was.

    Plus people are also looking at the catchweight in hindsight. At the time the fight was being negotiated, roach didnt know that pacquiao could take the punches of a fully blown WW puncher. Thats why they dragged cotto down a litte. Only after the fight roach realised that pacquiao was still as tough as he was at the lighter weights.

    Yes.

    Finding a fighter that doesn't "make weight" these days basically means heavyweights.
