thiis is 100 times worse considering Cotto won and defended his title at 154...this is a clear sign that tony is in his head and that he mentally douts himself cause he doesnt know if he cheated or not...but ` thing he does know is that he NEVER hurt tony at all,Tony walked thru everything he thru with a smile on his face...i like cotto but i think he's unsure of himself when it comes to Margo..i see Tony winning again via tko in the late rounds
lmao :boxing:
At least Pac was smart enough to get at least 2 pounds.
Cotto can't even do catchweights right.
Margarito will go into the bathroom on the morning of the weigh in, drop a giant burrito sized shit in the toilet, put it on a plate, bring it to Cotto and tell him: "here's your catchweight motherfucker".
The catchweight is bull**** larry. But your dead wrong about this being worst than Manny, dead wrong. All you have to do is ask yourself one thing, who is the greater fighter Cotto, or Pacman? If Cotto was supposed to be this great world beater, then it would have been bad. But he is a fighter that got smashed twice & once by a proven cheater. Not saying Margarito cheated against him, but the speculation is well deserved. Pacman is treated like gods gift to the sport asking for catchweights against anyone deemed dangerous, big difference.
your turn now show me where cotto said he is ok with the 145 catchweight
Please show me an actual quote in that whole article, anyone can speculate. I don't think I ever heard or saw an article where Cotto once complained, against clottey didn't he weigh in at 146 anyway??
The only people I have ever seen complain about the catchweight was manny pacquiao haters. Cotto has never been tight at 147 anyway, he never struggled to make the weight like 140. Maybe now 145-147 might be tough because he has been at 154 for a year or so.
no he wasn't ok and he did ***** and complain even said something like he would rather vacate his title and make it a non title fight before defending it at a catchweight.
the irony
He changed his mind when arum upped his purse.
was the fight against manny at 145???
damn what a coward that little cheating scumbag is..he's got arum on his side they do w.e they want with the other top rank slaves lol
wow you didnt know that?
He's a dumb ignorant troll ... what do you expect.
Both catch weights are stupid. Pacquiao faught Oscar at the full limit of 147 so why couldn't he fight Cotto at the limit?
And Cotto faught Foreman and Mayorga at the full limit of 154. So again, why can't he fight Margarito at the limit? It really speaks to an insecurity.
The hell are you talking about, he said it was no problem at all, and that he wouldn't have taken the fight unless he knew he could make the weight comfortably. You're just making **** up, or confusing it with what bs posters said.
your turn now show me where cotto said he is ok with the 145 catchweight
According to GMA News, World Boxing Organization welterweight champion Miguel Cotto’s title will be on the line for his fight against Manny Pacquiao on November 14th, whether Cotto likes it or not. Cotto, 28, has said that he doesn’t want to put his WBO belt on the line for the fight because the bout is taking place at a catch weight limit of 145 pounds instead of the normal 147 pound weight limit for the welterweight division.
The 145 pound catch weight number was insisted on by Pacquiao and his team in an effort to give Pacquiao a small handicap in the fight. Since it will probably be difficult for Cotto to take off the extra weight to make the 145 pound catch weight, something which will very likely leave him weaker for having done it, he didn’t want to put his title on the line.
Pacquiao and Roach want the title on the line so that Pacquiao can try win his 7th world title in seven different weight classes. Although you would think that having a world title fight at 145 would be bending the rules a little, the WBO apparently doesn’t care and is more than willing to have Pacquiao fight for the title regardless of whether it’s under the normal welterweight limit of 147.
Cotto, obviously, isn’t happy about it but it appears he has no choice in the matter. Cotto has been saying that he’ll vacate his WBO title if they force him to fight for the title at the lower weight of 145 instead of 147. But, even if Cotto does vacate the title, it appears that the WBO will then immediately make the number #1 challenger and thereby have the title on the line anyway.
So even if Cotto gives up his belt or is stripped of his title, the title will still be on the line for the fight despite the bout being held at a catch weight below the normal welterweight upper limit of 147. Now, it looks like Cotto will have to decide whether he wants to fight under those conditions. This was supposed to be a voluntary defense but it looks as if Cotto will end up without his title if he decides to walk away from the fight. If you ask me, this sounds pretty crummy.
It looks like Cotto has little choice but to give this handicap for Pacquiao if he wants to fight him.
Of course, Cotto doesn’t have to take the fight and can walk away. He might want to do this if this is what the situation is going to be, but he won’t have his title because the WBO will strip him unless he fights Pacquiao.
It looks like the WBO really wants Pacquiao to fight for the title for some reason. I wonder why? I hate to see how this fight will end up being scored if it goes to a decision. Unless I miss my guess, Pacquiao just as he did in his second fight with Juan Manuel Marquez in controversial fashion.
I can’t see Cotto winning the fight unless he knocks Pacquiao out. So in the end, Cotto has to take the much smaller revenue cut and then fight with his title on the line at a catch weight of 145 instead of the normal weight. If Cotto says he doesn’t want to put his title on the line, too bad.
The WBO will be putting it on the line anyway. If Cotto walks away from the fight, the WBO will strip him of his title. Wow, that sounds like a no win situation for Cotto.
no he wasn't ok and he did ***** and complain even said something like he would rather vacate his title and make it a non title fight before defending it at a catchweight.

they never could justifiably complain
Cotto was ok at 145, he just got owned

was the fight against manny at 145???
damn what a coward that little cheating scumbag is..he's got arum on his side they do w.e they want with the other top rank slaves lol
wow you didnt know that?
Man, Cotto is not negotiating its not like him this is all Stewards doing. But I must agree this is a tough fight for Cotto to me this is a 50/50 fight.
He shouldn't have complained in the first place.
And yes, this is far worse, not only cause this is his title, but this is sh!t that we don't expect from Cotto.
Hey, Mr Right!!! When or where Cotto says he wanted a catchweight????
was the fight against manny at 145???

Margarito will go into the bathroom on the morning of the weigh in, drop a giant burrito sized shit in the toilet, put it on a plate, bring it to Cotto and tell him: "here's your catchweight motherfucker".
That was good :rofl: Was that before or after he said " Catchweights I don't need no stinking catchweight but for some plaster gloves I'm gonna cut eh uo real good !!! "
