Pac wants to contest Cotto’s title/ Cotto insists that it should be a Non Title!

[JACK D. RIPPER]

it has everything to do with it.......theyre fighting at a weight where pernell and jcc fought for the ww wbc belt.......why should the belt not on the line this time?......

I just gave you a solution and you chose to ignore it.

the thing is its not really up to you.....you still has'nt answered the quetion....

I'll say it again.

If he wants to win a WW title.

And WW is between 41 and 47', then let him come in at any weight he wants and let Cotto come in at any weight he wants AS LONG AS THEY ARE WITHIN 41 47'.

Problem solved.

[sikwatee]

147 is WW..
**** that 141 bull****.

What does that have to do w/ this?

If WW is between 41 and 47' then let Packy come in at any weight within those parameters and let Cotto come in at 47'?

Whats the problem?

Dude, it doesn't really matter. At weigh-in Pac weighs at 142 and Cotto at 145. If this was a 147 fight then Cotto would weigh from 145-147 and Pac from 142-144. And come fight night, Cotto will still outweigh Pac by 10-15 lbs.

With that said, catch weight fights can still be title fights. There are many good examples for this argument.

If it's a non-title fight and if Pac beats Cotto, and Cotto is still WBO welterweight champ do you really think he's still the champion? Considering the fact that 145 lbs is within the WW limit. Think about it.

Yes technically he is because the fight was not fought at the true welterweight limit.
If Packy wants to clear doubts then just fight the damn thing at 47'.

Why *****foot around w/ 45'?

He wants to have his cake and eat it too.

Fan's will always question the legitimacy of the win if he carries on this way.

if you think so.....the problem will be solved but it will be most likely on pac's terms......no one desrves to be called a champion after a loss....

[Jim Jeffries]

Cotto doesn't seem to be very confident in his chances if he doesn't want to risk his title. The fight is at a WW weight (141-147,) why shouldn't his title be on the line?

[baracuda]

was there this much whining when jcc vs pernell fought for the wbc ww belt at the same weight?.......

[Chups]

Lots of dumbasses are showing up just so they could get back at "greedy" Pac.......LOL!!

You didn't answer my question.

Again..

"It's a non-title fight and if Pac beats Cotto, and Cotto is still WBO welterweight champ do you really think he's still the champion?"
