I have allready seen the excuses that Cotto will be to weight drained to compete with the allmighty Pacquiao. I disagree. Pacman's ideal fighting weight is probably 135 and Cotto's is 147. That said I see that Cotto coming down a measly 2lbs vs Pacman fighting 10lb above his fight weight is not a disadvantage for Cotto.
manny is fighting a DRAINED COTTO...
Drained by 1 pound, hardly very drained is it? He got in at 146 against clotty. The reason he doesn't want to go to 147 is because 5 pounds bigger is already alot to gain
Cotto getting Kayoed ( wow no red underline here, i guess it is a word)was never IMO the way manny would win if he did.
after long contemplation of seeing all the in's and outs. i gotta say that pac gives cotto the dlh treatment.
your sig is funny as hell hahahahaha!!
The over under in this fight is 9.5 rounds. I am taking the over. Cotto has only been Knocked out and thats by A plasterfull margarito. Manny hasn't been out in the past 10 years. He weighed 112 and it was in 1999. Pacmans best chance to beat Cotto is to use his speed so I'm expecting a Khanisque preformance. Hit and move..

Cotto is my favorite fighter and I will definitely be cheering for him.
But at this point I feel like he will not be able to handle Pacquiao's speed which will lead to an eventual stoppage

pacman was 145 for the second marquez fight. cotto was 146 vs clottey. the weight will not be an issue.
bumpppp........
The only person with the real advantage is the person with the stronger power punches. Remember this is boxing and all it takes is one solid shot
before Pacman starts dancing with his hula hoop. :boxing:
Anyone who thinks Pacquaio will gain an advantage is a clown, Cotto will only have to weigh in 1 pound lighter than he did against Clotty and will no doubt enter the ring in the same shape as he was for the Clotty. Pacquaio will have to add yet another 5 pounds.
My thought exactly. Cotto has the bigger size advantage so this fight is very competitive. Cotto will not get any heat for it. PBF Does. The Cotto fans are allready making excuses that he is at a disadvantage because of the weight.
ur not speakin 4 me, cotto was not forced to be 145. he agreed to it so no1 else should have a problem, his nutrisionist been said 145 is healthy for miguel, for so called fans to complain about it needs to stfu.
Pacquiao. He will weight 147 or 148 at fight night.
Cotto will weight 148-150. Unlike his usual 155-160 fight night weight.
Pacquiao at that weight has shown to keep his power, speed, everything. Cotto below 147 has shown to be chinny and faulter early in fights.
Where does it show that I'm anywhere near delusional?..
Read thoroughly bro..I never stated a "Huge Disadvantage" in any of my statements..
But like I said..if you actually weight train yourself..you'd understand what it's like to have to lose water weight to reach a certain limit..
The body is made up of about 60% water..that's why it's so important to remain hydrated..Muslce has about 75% water..so how is it that Cotto would have the advantage when Cotto has to dehydrate more then Pacquiao?..
DLH-Pac is the perfect example..DLH was Bigger, Stronger, and some may say more experienced..and 80% of the fans predicted a BRUTAL match for lil Pac..but DLH was walking around at about 175..and had to drop to 147..which he hadn't been at since what...01?..and look at how DLH looked..
I said..Cotto should be fine at 145..but just because it's closer to his division by 2lbs doesn't mean he has the advantage of being healthier come fight night..I'd say it's about equal..or even slightly favor Pacquiao..but in no way is it a HUGE DISADVANTAGE for anyone..[/QUOTE
There is a disadvantage for Pacman not Cotto. Look at the poll.

LMAO. Your passion for your favorite fighter has made you delusional. Cotto is getting 35% of the take because he is only willing to go down 2lbs. Cotto takes on all competition and thats what I love about him. He is not perfect so he is more exciting to watch. But to think that he is at a huge disadvantage for having to weigh 1 pound less than his last fight is the reason I made this thread to prove that you are wrong on this one.

I bet half the people here a chubby as FUCK!..
Because it seems so hard for you guys to understand..that losing 2lbs of fat is EASY..but losing 2lbs of MUSCLE MASS can make or BREAK a guy..
Pacquiao is not gonna gain 10lbs of fat neither..it will be MUSCLE..and he's not gaining 10..he's going up 7!..he weighed in at 138 against Hatton..and that'll be all MUSCLE MASS!..Pacquiao will be fit cuz draining muscle weight is hard on the body..because you literally have to dehydrate..and you fatty's know what it's like when you're out walking to your local Burger King and it's HOT as SHIT outside..and you haven't had water all day..you know that dizzy-I'm-about-to-black-out feeling?..imagine that feeling x10!!..that's why the "much bigger" DLH was a walking corpse in there..and he need IV fluids right before the damn fight!!..
Cotto at 145 should be healthy..but he walks around at 165..so he's dropping about 20lbs in all honesty..Pacquiao walks around 150..so guess what..he's only dropping 10lbs..I'd say as far as health goes..Pacquiao has the advantage..but Cotto can and should be fine at 145..but don't get it twisted..all this "it's only 1lb different from Clottey"..or the famous "It's only 2lbs from WW" then if that was the case..since Pacquiao is BEGGING for Cotto's belt..tell him to go up to those measly 2lbs since it really ain't shit but 2lbs!.
i'm pretty sure the 2lbs will be water weight.
i'm not to worried about him losing "muscle mass" by just dropping 2lbs in overall weight. the actual muscle mass he will be losing when he drops 2lbs will be a fraction of that actual weight. he'll rehydrate the next day no problem at all.

If Cotto can take 11 rounds of getting hit with bricks against the bigger Margacheato what makes you think he will give up on his stool. After the Clottey fight Cotto proved himself IMO.
because pac knows where his chin is.
cotto has no issue making 145. he was at 145 when he beat clottey so i dont see weight being an issue.
whoever can pressure more in this fight will take it. both men love comming forward and being to fault when backing up.
the name of the game is pressure, who's bringing it?

Cotto getting Kayoed ( wow no red underline here, i guess it is a word)was never IMO the way manny would win if he did.
after long contemplation of seeing all the in's and outs. i gotta say that pac gives cotto the dlh treatment.
