      if cotto was professional and classy, he'd admit he lost to clottey.
      dumbest statement of the day,....

        Like I said, that's Team Pacquiao not just Pacquiao--while its his choice at the end of the day--he gets adivce from his team.

          Cotto has always said he can do 145 no problem so lets see that since that is what he said. If he did not do that the fight would not be competetive and I don't want to waste my money watching a re run of mayweather - JMM... fu ck that.

          I don't agree that the fight should have been for the belt but it is now so deal with it.

          Also cotto said he would rehydrate to 155 come fight night. why do you think he would do that? because he wants to have better footwork.

          If he where to do a floyd, yes it would be gansta but it also bring on him the same criticism that floyd brought upon himself. It would just fail completely as fight of the year.

            He's giving away some of his muscle if he decides to rehydrate to 155. I read earlier reports that he'll rehydrate near 160.

              it is possible that he was just stating a ball park figure on the 155 to 160 range. either way, if he does not make it down to 145 and decides to to a PBF the fight will turn out the same way not competetive. I have cotto on this one all the way at 145, like his dad said no excuses.

                If Cotto does pull a floyd, I have a strong feeling Roach will call off the entire fight--he won't just accept the penalty.

                  No worries...Cotto will do the honorable thing and the fight will take place. Gonna be awesome.
