    Thats why Roach is a very smart guy..

    Ok let me get this straight.
    most of us agree that the only reason pac obliterated DLH at 147 was because DLH was dehydrated ryt?
    so by that logic pac's performance at that weight is still a big question mark,
    meaning that we still aren't sure if that extra weight at 147 didn't have an effect on him because DLH just basically stood there and didn't fight.
    and we all agree that cotto has trouble making jr WW and so he's basically a true blue WW.
    my question is this....
    how the hell is it a fair fight at 147 when pac's performance at WW is still questionable and cotto is a true WW?????
    yeah sure its harder to lose weight if your a bigger guy.
    i get that so that's why it has to be at a catchweight of 144 or 145.
    a weight drained cotto is unfair while a bloated pac isn't??????

      Arum's view of Cotto

      Arum probably thinks Cotto is almost finished. Why would he want him to fight PAcman, especially now that he has a new trainer.

      Interesting. Cotto's next fight will be interesting, it will serve as a benchmark. to see if Cotto <, = , > before and with his new coach.

          I believe Manny was only the favourite in 2 of these fights, against Diaz and Hatton. How could a protected fighter be an underdog, 4 out of 6 times?

          It doesn't make sense.


          Truth right here!!!!

                Saying it is one thing, we'll see though. I never blamed Pacman, like he said, he boxes and his promoters pick the fighters. Personally I think he does a great job training before the match, that's why he performs so well during one.

                It's just the quality of fighters he's put up against, who happen to have belts.
                Atleast Pac is honest about it when he says:

                "Its not my job to see who my next fight is, its my promoters job, I just kick there ass to make people happy and make them ponder retiring, but it looks like your not happy yet, until I retire Marquez, which I will".

                  Your an idiot. Read carefully what I'm writing, cause you seem to be the child, handpicking his fighters to then claim he's the best, is a weak argument.

                  It's coming to light, several threads are starting to post: that Arum and Roach are weight draining Pacman's opponents in order to give them a chance.
                  Read the news articles you idiot, and read between the lines.

                  Cotto just announced he wont fight Pacman below 145, i think.

                  Read, and think. Stop acting like a child.

                    True, pacman does say that. Weird, though how he wont pick a fighter. He just wont do it. Arum and Roach probably has him on lockdown.
