      Have you??

      I do know Oscar was contractually bound to weigh no more than 147 on fight night...it would have cost him 1 mill for every pound he gained over 147.

      If Pac's team didn't let a huge draw like Oscar rehydrate,they sure as hell won't let Cotto.

        the fact that he CAN rehydrate IS the reason he is taking the fight, he said himself that on fight night he would be 150+ pounds so 145 wont matter to him, Cotto isn't just going to allow himself to be pushed over..

          of course his offense was ineffective because he brought the wrong game plan, he fought in a way that style wise benefits Tony and with the added boost in power all Tony had to do was walk him down. Cotto had to respect Tony's power more than he normally would have and even still the fight was a draw going into that 11th round so even with a messed up game plan Cotto was never down, he was up and then it was even but he wasn't below at least on my card. he went wrong because you have to go downstairs with Tony and even though you may not back him up you have to stand there and trade smarter punches with him, also the fight had to stay in the middle of the ring. Cotto already had a bad game plan which in turn allowed Margarito to hit him already let alone the plaster which only intensified the damage done, there was a 75% power increase in EVERY punch thrown so you do the math.

          Cotto didn't have a solid team that night, he doesn't point fingers so he takes the blame but honestly yo he was cheated, he caught a bad break. he basically trained himself and brought a bad game plan so he was already weak for that and then if that isn't bad enough the guy he fights uses plaster in his wraps. it all played against him, due to problems in camp he presented the wrong style, a style which opened him up to be hit and even worse when he got hit it was with plaster. those were bone breaking shots man it isn't hard to see..
          He may have, he may not have cheated, on that point unless Marg Confesses we can never say for sure. Still, it was a very poor game plan by Cotto employed against Marg and even though he has seen the right game plan used by Mosley there is no guarantee he has the ability to execute it.

              Plaster of Paris hurts more than a couple drained pounds.

                compare Billy Collins Jr's face wounds to those of Cotto, with Collins it was obviously worse but the wounds are VERY similar except with Cotto you see a lot of blood on his face, with Collins you see his face with just the damage and no blood but it was a mess too. similar wounds under the eyes, overall eye swelling and even though Cotto's eyes didn't blacken up like Collins did the comparable damage in undeniable, just look at them bro..

                  For a guy who looked like **** Against Mosley does have a lot to say.
                  a complete ****** idiot wich don't even known or felt that is something in the gloves.

                  145 or 147 don't make much difference unless you're not a elite fighter, magacheato try to jump in 154 & honestly got **** down to 147 by a tomato can chicken fist "Santos".
                  I guess ***** Maga****o don't wanna get revenge for those 3 loses Santos/williams/mosley

                      I agree with Margo, weight will be a factor to some level, doesn't mean Cotto will lose but it will hurt Cotto. as more time goes since he moved up to WW, I see him with less stamina on the second half of the fight, same that happened in his last few fights at Jr WW. After taking this fight, Cotto should consider moving up imo.
