      Of course they had to make Cotto leap through a hoop or the fight wouldn't get made. The fight night weights are more important, though.



      Not surpised.



      There's a simple answer that needs no further explanation. Catch weights did not start with Mayweather.



      You're probably right.

      Arum likely did three back flips and a tummy roll when he heard the news of Floyd's injury. Not that they wanted Floyd anyway.

      I believe Arum knows Cotto is on the decline. So as long as he has Manny in his stable, he can still cash in for the biggest payday against Mayweather.

      Arum is making intelligent business moves. Gotta give him that.
      how is cotto on the decline??? cause he fought someone with loaded gloves and lost? cause he fought with a nasty gash and couldn't see out of one eye so he tried countering and timing versus just pushing forward and chancing getting caught with something he couldn't see?

        all I'm saying is that if manny is so great and the p4p great and king and the best and whatever dumbass **** you want to say about pac...why the catchweight??thats a b/s fight no one can honestly defend having a catch weight if cotto is too big and hits too strong for you then try going with someone smaller

          You pay your money to watch a weakened athlete and tainted outcome.

            cause pac's last fight he officially weighed 138 lbs, while cotto officially weighed 146 lbs 2 days ago.

            thats a b/s fight no one can honestly defend having a catch weight
            then tell cotto not to sign the contract.
            if cotto is too big and hits too strong for you then try going with someone smaller
            how about cotto stop begging for the pac fight.

                  cotto hasn't asked for any fight with pac he said he will fight who ever the company puts in front of him..

                    Im sorry but Pac is too fast and too strong. Cotto is slow and bigger than PAc. that's all!!!!!!!!!!
                    Try to believe that it will happen... remember: NO ONE BELIEVE PAC WILL BEAT OSCAR AND HATTON SUPER EASILY....
                    he is too fast on 135 under, he just beat a piece of **** like Hatton and a drained Oscar, do you think that his power will damage Cotto? he hit Oscar for 9 rounds and couldn't drop him once, Oscar was weak from round 1
                    get real buddy!!!

                      its not necessarily the catchweight that's the problem.....

                      it's the fact that they wanna fight for cotto's WW title at a catchweight that makes no sense.....so what, if manny wins is he gonna defend the WW strap against WW's but only at 143-144 lbs? that's what makes this b.s.

                      if they wanna fight at a catchweight, fine. but cotto's belt SHOULD NOT be on the line.....i mean clottey's belt.
