Pacquiao-Cotto update!

To me it matters. They said Marg and Mosley weigh in at 170 but a member herer posted a pic of the tale of the tapes, showing the fight night weight, and they weigh in at 160. Then Cotto nuthuggers(and i mean Cotto nuthuggers only, not all of his fans) said the Cotto comes in at 152-155 but no proof to show it. He said he does need proof, the answer is common sense.
we all know cotto will come in at least 10 lbs. heavier than pacquiao on fight night.
it doesn't matter. pacquiao and roach knew that coming in.
shouldn't make a difference. pacquiao would be at the same weight disadvantage no matter who he fights at 147. even if he fights 140 guys they'd be much heavier as well.Comment

in cotto's 2nd fight at 147 2-3 years ago (the last time i know of that he unofficially weighed in fight night) he weighed 159.

i don't know if that's a good idea.
i don't like change in fighter's regime.
fighters are best doing what they are use to.
he's not gonna beat pacquiao with speed.
losing 3-5 lbs. won't make a difference in his speed deficit to pacquiao.
however losing 3-5 lbs. might take away something else from him.
I think he wants to be able to react faster.Comment

I din't agreed with it when i first saw the quote. Not sure if it was his trainer or him but probably he feels he was way too slow in his last fight and needs to come lighter to time Pacquiao better. I don't think he wants to match Pacquiao speed.

It might not seem like a lot but it is a good idea.. I don{t think cotto is trying to match manny speed. I just think is more for him to be able to do his thing better against mannys footwork.Comment
