    I heard manny is moving up to a new division he created called "junior super middle welter weight"

    Rules are he comes in at whatever he wants and you have to come in anywhere from 140-150 depending on how big you are lol

    No, it was his counter offer mother****er. Pacquiao told Cotto that he won't take the fight at 147.

    I never pegged you for a Cotto fan. I'm a big Cotto fan but I'm not going to make any excuses for the man in his legitimate loss to Manny.

    Cotto didn't stop fighting princess....he was just getting dominated and countered every time he attempted to get his rhythm after the 6...don't be mad at me kid.. you're directing your hostility at the wrong person.

    If you've ever boxed and have been hurt, you'd know that it takes a lot out of you and your legs after getting hurt and Miguel was hurt early.....and continued to round 12....yet in your world, Cotto was drained. I'm sure you see fairies, unicorns and pixie dust where you live.

    Cotto was physically 100% for Pac.....Miguel wasn't with his uncle and his pops recently passed so mentally I thought Miguel could have been distracted....but make no mistake Cotto was a beast that night.....he just was facing a guy who was just on another level....just like when he meets Floyd on May 5.

    Miguel comes out excuses years after the fight conveniently right before facing Floyd.....He is coming off redemption from Marg and he needs to prepare mentally....excusing his loss means he believes he is undefeated going in with Floyd....confidence he will need.

    Fight should have been at 147 cotto only did that cause he knew he wouldn't get the fight if he didn't and wanted to get paid, you a sad boxing fan if you can't understand that

    Why don't you ask Floyd about catch weight fights of 144.....oh....I mean 146? How about Ray Robinson, Leonard, Armstrong, BHOP or Jones Jr.?

    You think Pac created the whole "catch weight" fights? You are silly as a mother****er Jose... Catch weight fights have been threaded throughout the history of this sport and will continue long after Pac leaves his stamp on this sport for good. Relax.....catch weight fights have given us a lot of great fights that otherwise wouldn't have been made.
