    anyway, pac should fight in his weight division (140 lbs or 135) while Cotto is fighting at WW, and that's it.

    i hate this catch weight stuff.
    technically WW is anything between 147 lbs and 141 lbs... the belt is on the line pending negotiations.

        as long as cotto can rehydrate to be basically a middleweight, it won't matter much at all.

        nailed it! cotto doesnt want to fight paul williams and hes fighting a former flyweight and the cotto stans wanna complain about 1 pounds

          STFU ts, you don't know ****.

          Margarito, someone that's done it before unlike your non experienced ass, is saying that it will dehydrate Cotto.

          He went down to 145 at the weigh in against Mosley and he didn't look nearly as strong on fight night.

            depends on someone's point of view... if WW is between 141 and 147, than if title is on the line, 147 is maximum allowed weight, that's my opinion.

            and a thing about one pound, i have cut weight many times in my life, and believe me, one pound, the last pound can be a big trouble to cut, and can drain you more than first 5 pounds you've cut.

              I agree that there are different interpretations of what a WW is, but your interpretation is in the minority and not the official interpretation as per real boxing organizations.

              then cotto shouldn't take teh fight. that fact that he is willing to take the fight at that weight means you have a pointless argument.

                That's because Mosley is physically stronger than him. Mosley is short, but he is powerfull, and bullies around biiger fighters like Vargas, De La Hoya, and Mayorga.

                  Well if it's only a few pounds then the Pacman shouldnt have a problem fighting at 147 and allowing Cotto to rehydrate whats the problem y'all say he can KO heavy weights right.

                    both guys should be fighting guys in their own division.

                    That's the one thing I am wondering, but we dunno what the catch-weight will be whether its 142-145 nothing has been decided yet and also the deal with DLH was that he weighed the limit on fight night (147) when he was dehydrated so I think if they do the same to Cotto it could make a difference.

                    At the end of the day, nobody knows what affect it could have until the night of the fight... for all we know it could have no affect but then we could see it could have a huge affect, nobody will know.

                      Margorito weighted that cause he chose to, they were gonna call the fight off when Shane was over at the weigh in. He had to drop that right then or Margs woulda bailed and ****ed Shane over right there.
