Then why did Margarito weigh in at 145 against Mosley? Riddle me that batman.

he looked drained and weak but thats besides the point

if he came in at 45, then that's his problem. he was never contractually committed to making that weight

apparently it wasnt the best move he ever made, robin

Why? Margrito usually weighs in under 147, he's always in phenomenal shape.

Hopkins would weigh in at 158, 157, 156. Again, another phenomenal workaholic.

Do you think any of those guys would make 145 to fight Pac? I promise you every single one of them would.

And for the record Margarito weighed in at 145 pounds against Shane Mosley. And he's much bigger than Cotto.

I don't agree that he is "much bigger" than Cotto. I think the sizes in terms of weight are comparable. But you make a good point about him fighting at 145.

The point is you guys are crying waaay to much about one pound difference for cotto. Guys like Margarito are so much physically bigger than cotto and yet can make 145 no problem. If they can do it, cotto, who isn't a big welterweight, should have no problem.

A fight between Cotto and Pacquiao is going to take place. It's amazing that this fight can even occur in the first place and yet, to some of you all you care about is that one pound. Be happy they are giving us such an awesome fight. This is truly a fight for the fans.

You're telling me cotto shouldn't be able to get to 145 if that beast next to him can do it on a regular basis? Give me a break man

is 144 for cotto ok w you?

Yes.

is 143 for cotto ok w you?

That might be pushing it a bit for cotto, IMO, but then again I'm not apart of cotto's training camp. I'm sure if he really wanted to he could still be fighting at 140.

Agreed but there should be no catchweight. If Pac could fight Delahoya at 147, why not Cotto?
