    He did. Would you rather have Amir Khan fight Canelo at the full 160 lb limit??

    The 155 lb limit was a favor to Cotto too.

      Which opponents were “undersized?”

        Sure. And remember Cotto stipulated 155, not Canelo

            Lol. “Oversized.” If you want to know what Oversized is watch PAC vs Marg or Canelo vs Smith. All those names you mentioned have no resemblance to those. As if every fighter in boxing weighs the same on fight night. Berchelt oversized Valdez

              The claim that Canelo created his own 155 is another one of the made up narratives. Angulo, Lara and Kirkland were non title fights and it's not uncommon for non title fights to be a pound or two above the limit like Lara's record shows-- and it was Cotto who determined the weight for their fight. People used to claim it was impossible for him to still make 154 but he made it vs Smith and gave a solid performance.

                I'm not talking about fight night. You know very well. Non of those fighters belong at the weight they fought canelo. Be safe
