Yes, i know Cotto is naturally heavier probably by 10lbs. Other than that, they're virtually almost the same exact size.

Don't get me wrong, i still believe that Cotto is the bigger fighter. He's a natural Welterweight where he had to go down on weight, where as Manny has to go up. But they are very close size wise.
TS, you can pull up all of the b.s stats you want but Cotto is naturally a much bigger man than pac. If we are talking walk around weight then I think we are talking about something like 15lbs.
walking around weight isnt too important in every case. good example is hatton, he walks around at about 170 - 180! pac is about 145 - 150 isnt he?
when pac fought hatton i was a bit surprised that he was just as big, and in some areas bigger than hatton. so it doesnt surprise me that there isnt too much difference between pac and cotto.

Cotto got into boxing because he was overweight that why he got the angel foundation.
It simply means Manny has a smaller waist line and/or Cotto is heavier, that's all.
ditto
and that might just equate to a higher body fat percentage
if these stats are correct then this is not comforting

That's not exactly right. Cotto is not 5'8". He is closer to 5'7". I think his exact height is 5'7"1/4".
You can see it in that pic above. Pac looks taller if anything though he is very slightly shorter, but only by about one centimeter.

Don't sing it, prove it.
Yeah, after looking at those stats, it's amazing that both fighters are virtually the same size.
On television, Miguel Cotto just looks bigger. I guess the first tell-tale sign of size will be the kick-off press conference in New York September 10 when both men stand face to face.

Manny's got some BIG ass calves!
waist 28" for pac and 32" for Cotto. What does that imply? That Pac is thinner than Cotto? Or that Cotto has naturally bigger bones?
