    marquez can't either.

    if floyd is good enough to beat guys who weigh 160-165 in the ring then it's unfair to fight marquez who is used to fighting guys who weigh 140-145 in the ring.

    guys at 130 and 135 are guys who fight 140-145 in the ring.

    130 and 135 is where jmm has proven himself capable of fighting.

    how is it fair to fight floyd who has proven he can beat guys who are 160 in the ring?

      Same day weigh-ins wouldn't hurt Floyd at all.

      He doesn't add much.

      But Cotto would have to fight at 154 or 160....LOL

      That would be hilarious watching that lil f@g fight somebody his own size or bigger.

      Cotto...wins his fights on the SCALE

      Floyd..wins his fights in the RING
      What a douche' bag

        this is accurate from what I remember

          Cotto is one the biggest weight-gainers in the sport.
          If you are gaining more than 15 pounds from weigh in to fight night you are probably pushing it. That said Paul Williams weighed like 166-167 in one of his fights and Clottey actually came in at 170 in one of his fights. I believe there are many many guys that abuse the structure of the weigh in more than Cotto. Now when he was a 140 lb fighter he was up there with the best of them.

          Speaking of Clottey can you imagine in 1 day gaining 23lbs? and by the time these guys actually hit the ring they have drank even more fluids probably put another pound or two on. I am surprised he has not hurt himself yet.

            Williams only came it at 166 once and he got clowned by Quintana.

            Since then..he weighs less than Cotto and Clottey on fight night.

                That's interesting being that Larry Merchant wasn't in the Cotto - Margarito broadcast and a comment like that was never mentioned.

                    Cotto is a HUGE WW. He could make 154 and 160. Oh wait. Paul Williams is fighting around those weights.
