    I'd say its 144lbs with a 60/40 split or at 145 with a 70/30 split. It's an even match with Pacquiao bulking up and Cotto slimming down some.

    Both will make tons of money and would be financially rewarded and the boxing fans will be gifted with a legendary match from bell-to-bell.

      in the middle of the ring pac will control but everytime pac is on the ropes you think he's gonna get ktfo.

      Nah I thought Oscar would handle Vargas and he did.

        Juanma is overrated?? Dude, give him a chance to fully break in. Juanma is the future for us Boricuas. And till this point his definitely hasn't disappointed. Big ups to Puerto Rico porque nosotros somos guerilleros.

          Potential greatness i see in

          linares
          urbano antillon
          valero
          pwill
          & juan ma.
          no one wants to fight him. not his fault.

          besides medina and figueroa ain't no tomato cans. medina might be a ***** but he ain't no tomato can.

            Oscar was a athletic stiff in his prime. Pacquiao is alot more offensive than oscar, but i think cotto is a better fighter than the prime roided up vargas. not a bad comparison.

              i'm talking about how the fight plays out , dummy.

              not who you thought would win or who would win.

              in the middle of the ring oscar was too fast BUT whenever he was on the ropes you thought vargas would kill him.

              i think that's how pac-cotto will be like. not necessarily the outcome.

                I think vargas was better than Cotto by qute a bit Tbh. Both good fighters, but Vargas fought some killers. No disrespect to Judah and margarito.

                  not comparing the fighters.

                  comparing how the fight might go.

                  oscar was too fast and skilled for vargas in the middle of the ring but on the ropes vargas was too strong and overpowering.

                    My mistake. But yes good comparison, But I doubt you will see manny on the ropes much.

                      Weight at 145 should be fine...Cotto weighed 146 for Clottey. Anything lower than 144 would give Pac the advantage.
