    You mean he ate himself out of 140.

      Yep

      Cotto is a average normal size WW, its just the freaks like Marg,Williams,Clottey make hiim look tiny.

        Mike actually wasn't THAT short of a guy (5'11 roughly). His build prob made him look shorter than what he was.

          Lmao nope, he may be 5'7 but dude has a huge frame. A natural Jr WW doesn't improve that drastically having moved up like Cotto. Where as Mayweather didn't improve having moved up to 135/140/147 and 154...Yes more pop but in everyother department a little decline

            he's short, but not a small welterweight.. the guy walks around at about 180, he's far from small

                compared to others he is a small welterweight.
                I don't think he is "too small" though.
                He is right there with Berto & Mayweather.
                Like someone else said, at one point that used to be normal.

                  He not a Jr. Welter, anyone who remember what he was like at 140 knows this. His chin was worse, his legs were gone and was struggling to make weight that much that he had no time to work on his gameplan.

                      he is a beast, he is shortish bu just look at the power he generates, he was landing single shots to the ribs against Jennings and putting him on one knee, no he is perfect for the division, i think he will kill margarito next time around.
