Manny pacquiao and Miguel Cotto are the same size....

Some of you guys don't know what the hell you're talking about.

A welterweight crown can be contested at ANY weight inbetween 141 and 147 lbs.

147 is the LIMIT as to how much you can weigh.

They can fight at 144 or 145 lbs and still fight for the belt as it falls in the defined minimum to maximum for the welterweight division.

Some of you guys need to get that through your heads.

Cotto's the much bigger guy weight wise when coming into the ring. If he can't fight effectively by weighing in at 144 or 145 lbs (which by the way falls in the welterweight category) he shouldn't take the fight.

And if Pac beats him he will hold a legitimate welterweight crown as the fight was contested WITHIN the recognized welterweight division's weight class (anywhere between 141 - 147 lbs)

[KILLA RIGHT]

the difference btwn pac and cotto is almost the same as the difference btwn marg and cotto. Marg is much bigger than cotto, but no one was complaining about it. This fight needs to happen at 147!!!!!!!!!

agreed cotto is bigger but so was tony.

[skullduggery]

NO, he's not, he's a jr. welter. When did a welter last came in at 138 lbs at weigh in?

pac weighed in at 142 for the oscar fight........ and the night of the fight, he was 148..... its obvious that cotto has a pre weigh in workout.....

[Doctor_Tenma]

He was 148 against Hatton.

actually if the fight contract says that the limit is 145, its not for the title..... the welter weight title can be fought from 141-147 true, but if contract prohibits fighting over 145, than the title cant be at stake.....

[skullduggery]

He was 148 against Hatton.

okay thanks........ and hatton was 152 right?

If that's the case and Cotto and Pac are the same size as you say, then Cotto wouldn't have problems coming in at 142 during the weigh in right?

It's not the same when one fighter comes to fight at 148 and the other comes to fight at 158-160. Surely, that's not up for debate right?

[GreenMan]

If they're the same size then Cotto wouldn't have a problem going down to 138 lbs, the same as Manny's last weigh-in. But they're not.

hahahahaha ditto

Exactly. Anything over 140 is Welterweight.
