Roach Wants Cotto at 143

[Mr. Philadel]

Mosley has fans?

yup.......but we don't talk **** like the other cats......we wait till **** actually becomes OFFICIAL!!!!!

[skullduggery]

Pac weighed in vs the 147 catchweight at 142. he didnt weigh in at 147. If oscar didnt **** up his diet & training he would have gained 10-15 pounds. thats not pac's fault that he only regained 1 pound.


147 fight vs oscar

pac weighed in at 142, fight night 148

140 fight vs hatton

pac weighed in 138, fight night 148.

to tell the truth, thats just speculation at this point....... all we know is oscar gpt his ass whooped.... lets not bring what ifs into the situation........

pac has been at ww before..... if he wants to fight cotto, he can do it at welter weight, unless he's scared that is......

if he doesnt take the fight at 147, he showing that he will only fight weight drained opponents at 147.....

[MANGLER]

143 now? This **** is gettin as annoying as the usual purse split garbage, which will surely come next after the weight gets worked out. **** this ****. WW's should just fight WW's.

[bobo_bobo]

I originally picked Pac by KO but after seeing Roach not being as confident of a win as he was in the Hatton and Oscar fights, I'm picking Cotto by decision at any weight.

[mellow_mood]

getting annoyed.

i don't mind **** talking before a fight like , "he'll whoop him!" or "he has no chance!"

**** like that.

but calling a natural featherweight who should be at lightweight a ***** for wanting a catchweight is silly.

whether it's at 143 or 147 , cotto will be a middleweight in the ring.

just let pacquiao wait for floyd. at least a win over floyd MEANS something.

cotto ain't nobody.

[Jone2ts]

**** that 147 period or Cotto needs to rematch Mosely.

[JACK D. RIPPER]

Go and read the article in the first page. If somebody is insecure is Roach and all of the *******s that want the fight at 143.

Usually GetSum is right on, but I gotta disagree with him here. Its clear that Cotto's frame is too big to dry up any lower than 146-47 minimum.
If he's lucky enough to win, CatchWeight Manny will be known as CatchWeight Manny for the rest of his life.

If he wants his legacy to be one of impropriety then go ahead and fight an emaciated version of Cotto, but he wont be fooling anyone.

[WhoreUs]

if marg challenges floyd than yea thats fair..... especially since floyd won a belt at that weight......

if roy would have challenged lennox lewis in 2003, it would have taken place at hw,not at a crusier catch weight.....

challenging?

manny ain't challenging cotto.

lol

maybe title wise.

manny is just going from option to option.

mosley will be next. depends on who gives pac the best offer.

i hope mosley beats cotto's offer.

i'd like to see mosley and pacquiao now.

more meaningful win anyway. cotto can go challenge for another vacant belt.

[BMWM3P]

Pacquiao should go after Mosley to fight the number one guy. These Cotto stans piss me off.

As always riding the first black fighter's **** that shows up. You're a biased ******ed Cotto hater, *** off.

[BOOMbip]

From another thread Re-post.



Even though I think catchweights are bull****.


If Cotto signs the fight at anything less then 147...I will make ZERO excuses...He knows what his limitations are better then any of us.

If he goes past his limitations to make some BIG BUCKS thats on him...

He has decided to take that chance.
