Mayweather vs. Cotto Master Discussion Thread -DON'T make new threads about the fight

I saw some interesting comments, speculation and comparisons between Floyd's size on the HBO 24/7 series, and Victor Ortiz' (robust) physique.

Floyd did look small to me compared to Victor, although Floyd didn't look small in the training camp photos that had been released previously.

I just thought that I would offer some information that I have for discussion, if anyone was interested.

The following weights are NOT "weigh-in" weights, with the exception of the Oscar fight. These are post-rehydration weights, mostly gathered from HBO's "fight night" weights.

If you have any other "real weights", please add them.

Nice Gino. I think Floyd will be the same in regards to the weight he comes in at for this fight as well. One thing about Floyd he is very consistant.

He's gonna weigh in at 147 and drink a bottle of water, and have dinner and be at 151 in the ring.

That sounds about right....

I pretty much see it goin down just like that bruh. Its gonna be a great fight I think. But I think Floyd is gonna look bigger than most think he looks on fight night, the same as in the Shane fight. Nobody realizes how strong Floyd is until they get in the ring with him, by then it's too late.

Victor's stance my give Floyd some problems at 1st with his straight rights to the body, but by round 4 Floyd will figure out a way to counter the disadvantage that Vic's stance proposes.
