    Wait up, Cotto-Pac is gonna be at a catchweight? LOL. I knew Pac was going to give the fans some more bull****.

    Paulie Malinaggi almost KO'd Cotto at 140, if Pac doesn't KO Cotto at 144, he is the most overrated boxer in the sport's history.

      Exactly my point. Of course, Cotto would be dumb to accept the fight at 142lbs or lower, but at 144-145 limit...I think he makes it fine truthfully. But the hydration is whats going to play a major role.

      I read somewhere that Pac's camp were demanding a fight night weigh in, but not sure how true that is.
      ppl call dlh ****** for not "rehydrating" overnight.....but i think there was a stipulation in the contract that oscar COULDN'T come in over the WW limit, even on fight night....

      i hope they're not trying to do the same for cotto.....if it's true, then that would explain the "fight-night" weigh-in, and cotto loses if that's the case.

        LOL Pauli almost KO'd Cotto? LOL

        He gave him a tough fight due to his style, but I think its safe to say Cotto handed Pauli the beating of his life to say the least. Getting hit with shots doesn't mean someone is getting KO'd (SMH)

              I say make it a Welterweight fight (141-147). But as I mentioned above, the issue is how much Cotto is going to hydrate for the fight.

                Can fight night weights be stipulated in contracts or is that illegal? They should just go 147 weigh in and something like 156 maximum weight on fight night. I think that would be reasonable.

                    They need to fight @ 147 for the title Pac was already there and he has been given a lot of credit for beating De La Hoya, what's the deal here if u can't drain him don't fight him? IMO Cotto will be fine arround 145, after this win he can go and beat the rest of the so call P4P Kings @ WW.
