Cotto Refuses To Fight Pacquiao Below 145-Pounds

[rob6465]

Yep, cotto should fight mosley and floyd fight pacman and the winner of both fight, fight each other in 2010.

Question guys, lets forget about money just the match up:
which fight is more senseless, Cotto Pac or Mayweather JMM?
IMO both.

cotto/pac and pbf/jmm both only make sense if there is a catchweight. without a catchweight both fights are mismatches.

[WESS]

that's what I've been trying to say all along. the fight don't need to happen but people keep wanting to talk about a fight that shouldn't be happening.


exactly, cotto is too big for pac. for the fight to be fair, cotto must sacrifice for the catchweight, he can still hydrate himself up to MW on fight night. if he don't wanna do that then walk and fight mosley.


lols... jmm is pac's left-overs


yes, pbf (a WW) should fight Cotto and Mosley (WWs).


exactly!!! mofos think pac is a bonafide WW!!! pac officially weighed 142 lbs against dlh.


exactly!!! if they wanna fight the little man they gotta make 142 lbs, or walk.


agree on all points



145 is not reasonable. Cotto and Mosley are MW on fight night and Pac is a WW on fight night. Cotto and Mosley must sacrifice on the catchweight to make the fight fair.



- 1 of 2 to have 6 titles in 6 different divisions
- only person to have 4 lineal titles
- beat morales 3x
- beat jmm 2x
- beat mab 2x
- only person to KO morales
- only person to knockdown jmm 4x
- 1 of 2 to stop mab
- 1 of 2 to stop DLH
- 1 of 2 to stop Hatton
- beat DLH worst than Floyd
- KOed Hatton faster than Floyd
- fought from 106 lbs all the way to 147 (actually 142) lbs



pac's legacy is already impressive and cemented. wins over Cotto and Mosley would just be icing on the cake and aren't necessary.


roach said the fight with dlh at 147 lbs was a one time deal


what's also not greatness is for cotto (a MW on fight night) to call out pac (a WW on fight night) without sacrificing some weight on the official scales to level the playing field.


roach said 2 fights then pac retires. there's nothing left for him to do.



- roach said 147 lbs for dlh was a one time deal

- pac officially weighed 142 lbs against dlh. when was the last time cotto weighed 142 lbs?

- pac officially weighed 138 lbs against hatton just a few weeks ago. when was the last time cotto weighed 138 lbs.

- pac is too small for cotto and if cotto wants the fight he must agree to 142 to level the playing field.

- roach doesn't even want pac campaigning at WW.


Bottomline 147 lbs was a catchweight for DLH to come down one division to and Pac to come up 2 divisions for. if cotto wanna fight pac he's gonna have to come down to an agreeable catchweight.


Roach is willing to make the fight if the playing field is level.

lols... jmm is pac's left-overs

This is true..... lol I knew that....

Although with the situation that it is, I think Mayweather will do worse than what Pac did..... but that is true. Mayweather is getting Pac's left overs.......

To be fair to Mayweather, its not per say a "bad" fight for almost 2 years off. BUT he could have made a HELL of a statement after his time off and going right at Mosley. MAN... I dont think anyone could talk....
but agan at least its not a **** fighter. JMM DOES have a chance to win. Will he? lol not IMO.

I just REALLY REALLY hope JMM isn't beaten badly and fights Pac next while Mayweather steps up and fights Mosley whos sitting around asking himself WTF or Cotto who IMO will beat Clottey pretty damn well. But then again I want Cotto and Marg again..... THAT needs to happen too.

Like a lot of the time, too many fights that NEED to happen are not happening! wtf...

"hey......must be the money"!!!!

Pacquiao got a gift decision. Enjoy that W over JMM, but you know that win will always be contested.

depends, on which styles both guy uses.

agreed, floyd could've chosen a worse opponent, but jmm is tough for anyone, but w/ the weight disparity, I don't like jmm's chances.

agreed. I too wanna see cotto get revenge on margo

agreed, every time a good fight doesn happen an angel loses its wings.

- the 1st fight was a scoring error that robbed pac of the win
- the 2nd fight the knockdown gave pac the win

[WESS]

True, but JMM wants pac and I wonder if he really thinks he can get a Decsion Vs Mayweather? I think he will be looking for a KO. Which will have him open a lot of the times for PBF whos the king at countering tag him..... but like you said it depends on what style they use. I see an even match for the first few rounds, maybe having JMM up by. But I see a Mayweather adjusting and winning either by a UD or maybe a stoppage by the ref. I dont know.

Yea hes tough but I think Mayweather will wait and look for an opening and do what he does best. I was just saying that I hope his size difference wont damage him so when and IF he fights Pac again people cant say PBF killed him or something.

agreed. I too wanna see cotto get revenge on margo

If they fight again. HE WILL!

agreed, every time a good fight doesn happen an angel loses its wings.

this makes me sad.

TAKE THAT ARUM!!! You cant run from Mayweather no more, either put up or shut up. Nobody wants to see this Pac-Cotto you know what fight they want to see. Arum has no choice now, if Pacquiao-Mayweather doesnt get done, then we can truely say that Arum is ducking Mayweather like the swing flu, he did the same **** in 2005 with Cotto but he cant run no more. I'm looking foward to Pacquiao-Mayweather now!! this is great news!!!
