    Cotto & Mosely should be having a rematch. Pacman and Roach are the ones destroying a huge WW division by trying to lure everyone into a catchweight money fight, when all they really want is the king anyway. I have no problem admiting that Cotto Vs Mosely was a close fight, thus I want to see a rematch in a neutral venue. That is a real WW fight that would in my eyes really insert some clarity to the WW picture. The problem with Pac Vs Cotto is simply that Cotto stands to lose alot more than Pac does. Cotto will be taking all the risks for the smallest reward, he could very well lose the fight and it would be devastating for a number of reasons. His legacy, his record and his money making prospects in the future. Even worse if he wins which he could easily do as well, he still will be beat over the head with beating a smaller man moving up. The Mosely fight would be a good fight for the WW divison and the fans.

      Pac is amazing but i want someone to knock him back down to 140 for good. theres some good fights for him there. if Cotto can't do it then Pac should have no problem becoming a welterweight.

        Yes, I think Pacquiao is testing the welters on this fight with good money. If he gets passed Cotto then should've no problem fighting Mosley at 147 imo.

        War Pac!

          sorry guys but if Cotto gets KO then he should retire and never show his face again. Lets go back just 1 year ago at this time. Do you know what was about to happened? Pac was just hours away from stepping into the ring with David Diaz. That means that Pac was still basically a 130 pound fighter before this fight while at the same time Cotto was a month away from the Margarito fight.

          Basically Pac had just came off of a 130 pound fight that a ton of people thought he maybe loss or had a draw in. While Cotto had just beat a legend in Mosley and after that turned in maybe his best overall performance ever in schooling Gomez. Who wouldve thought that a year ago from this time & date that alot of people would now be saying that Pac knocks out Cotto in 6 rounds at 145? How crazy is that. Just really think about where we were a year ago. Pac was elite but he still looked one demensional in beating JMM while Cotto looked like he had turned into one of the best pure boxers in the game to go along with his incredible combination of size, strength, and power.

          If you had thought about this fight at that time it wouldve looked like a murder scene. If you compared the 2 you would say that Pac is faster but Cotto is still pretty fast in his own right. You would say that Cotto is a much bigger fighter, a much stronger fighter, while Pac has power, Cotto is maybe the most powerful guy in the sport, and Cotto is a much better pure boxer. Pac was just coming from fighting a guy like JMM while Cotto was about to fight a guy in Margarito who seems like a 154 pounder. I mean no one wouldve that this fight was possible at this exact time a year ago. I mean, if Cotto loses a tough fight then I can live with it but if he gets KO by Pac then he is garbage to me and has to be up there with alot of other hype jobs that turned out to be just that, all hype
          Usual **** thread from one of the ****tiest posters on the boxing scene. After a sentence or two I had to stop reading, this is just to ***ing dumb to waste any effort on.
