Cotto will not fight Manny below 145

[JOM'S]

i dont get why they dont want to fight at 147 then cap the hydration weight to 10 lbs to maximum 157 at fight night?

then they can fight for a belt...

It is fair and Manny is good but Cotto is going to kill him. The only chance Manny has is if Cotto enters the fight Weight Drained at 142/144 and Miguel is not going to let that happen. I think Manny has a better chance of winning vs Mayweather.

no way,manny does well against people that dont have much of a right.cotto is a lefty fighting orthodox like hatton and DLH.southpaws r very open to the straight right down the middle,i think it would be a close fight for 6 rounds but pacquioa would get picked off later on

is that possible?.......................anything above 140 though is still for the WW belt...................

You dont see these weight drained issues, only with Manny. Blame this on Morales for making this a legit excuse whenever facing Pac .

[glidesmack]

uhhhh...what? These guys are totally ****ing underweight. Blame it on Morales?!??!?

[marsman]

Cotto is gonna go on a losing streak after Clottey. I think Margarito ruined him. He knows very well Pacquaio would knock him out under 145....I hope he understands the same would happen over 145. Mayweather is going to pick on him after he loses to Clottey.

[MANGLER]

Cotto shouldn't fight Pac at all.

It was well documented long before Pac's rise in weight classes that Cotto had problems making jrWW. It was making him chinny and some what of a plodder.

That was years ago when he was younger and before he filled into a full WW. How can you even say this is just coming up?

Do you really need to ask that question?

He's got the fever.

I think Roach and Pacquiao will be willing to do 145 or 144, Cotto is right in doing this, there's no way he can make 142 without being drained, 145 would strain him as it is.
