Cotto should not accept roach's proposal for a fight @ 142

[street bully]

even 143- is way 2 much....

144- or theres no fight!

Then there will be no fight. Manny is the draw and the ATM machine.

Why cant he be like the warrior called Floyd.He accepted to fight Oscar at 154 because size dont win fights.

warrior? LOL

are you talking about the guy that almost lost to an old de la hoya?

the guy who beat hatton at 147 in 10 rounds (while pac did it 5 times faster in HIS 140 weight)?

to call floyd a warrior while criticizing pacquiao is one of the dumbest thing you can do

[street bully]

Manny doesn't really want this fight. Cotto does, so Cotto should just sweat a little more in the gym and lose the damn 5 pounds.

I dont even want to see this fight if one of the fighters is weight draine! whats the point?

He's ALREADY sweating his ass off to get to 147, an extra 5 pounds of sweat is impossible when you're already cutting 15 pounds. To get to 142, he'd need to lose lean muscle at this point in his career. If Manny really wants his due as a top 10 ATG, he should fight Cotto at a weight where Cotto isn't a zombie.

cotto is too big. he shouldn't even be picking on smaller guys.

[Hagler★]

i hope that the money doesnt blind his judgment.. .

cos if not... like i said.

pac will beat him.

This is how. Roach was smart taking the Oscar fight a middle weight trying to fight at 147 because he knew he would be weight drained now he wants to take a welter weight and have him fight at 142 (more or less the jww limit). Not only is Roach a great trainer but it appears a master tactician. The only safe bet is the bet that you are 100% certain of winning and by getting fighters to dropp out of their comfortable weight his is increasing the percentage

It's fine for Manny not to fight Cotto or to say that he's too big, but he shouldn't make him cut down to a ridiculous weight and then claim that he's conquered the great Miguel Cotto. Either have the fight at a reasonable weight or don't have it at all.

[street bully]

Listen. If they made Oscar come down from 154 to 147, then Cotto should just stfu and move down or move on. FFs Oscar came down in weight when he was the man, Cotto calls no shots whatsoever.

[Tankster]

He will accept that. Pacquiao calls the shot now. If they dont go down then **** it, its their loss. No fight can give cotto $5 million + dollars other than pacquiao. Pacquiao is the draw. All fighters who wants a piece of the lions share follow rules of engagement.
