Pacquiao-Cotto: Manny's Weight Shows Size Difference

[fdotorres]

WTF! if your so critical of cotto losing all that weight, then why not let him fight where he will be comfortable in losing all those weight, like junior middle(154lbs). he should not be fighting in welterweight if he is having trouble losing weight. ur an idiot hater.

should we discredit every fight that pac won below 140? playing your game should be very easy

The point is, you cannot discredit a possible win by Pacquiao against Cotto and vice versa for 2lbs, when the latter has been able to weigh in at 146 repeatedly.

Having to lose 1 more pound once you're already dehydrated is very hard. But it won't affect him as bad as everyone seems to think. Pac is not moving up 7 pound he is fighting close to his normal weight.

Cotto could "cut" and lose some fat instead of muscle. It's not like he's all that built, muscle wise anyways. Just have a healthy diet of more protein and less carbs.
A good big man, will always beat a great little man.

How much weight did Mayweather give up to Oscar on fight night?

On the night Floyd was 148 , Oscar was 160 .

On the night Floyd was 148 , Oscar was 160 .

Mayweather was 150 during the weighins compared with Oscar's 154. There was no unofficial weighin prior to the fight.

Are you saying Oscar didnt rehydrate the 6 pounds , Floyd was walking around with a soda can before the official weigh-in .

But anyway It was stated during the telecast and , the first thing Floyd said after the fight was you saw a WW beat a MW .

No, what I'm saying is, Floyd didn't weigh 148 during fight night.

Based on what , the telecast and Floyd said he did .

You mean he explicitly said he weighed 148? If he did, I guess I'm wrong then.

EDIT: I seen the post-interview again. It seems he did.

Id have to go and view the tape again but it was definitely said through the telecast and for sure Floyd said you saw a WW beat a MW but did he state 100% that he weighed 148 , to be fair to you I couldnt say for sure he said it I believe that he did but we see a lot of tapes and interviews and I could be mistaken , but in doubting myself I went and looked at his weigh-in photos and he was very full and fluid looking while in the fight he was more cut .

Either way you look at it he gave Oscar a lot of weight on top the fact he was as bulked as he could be making it a double whammy , Floyds a little guy .
