During a recent interview, trainer Freddie Roach voiced his concern about the possibility of Miguel Cotto not making the contract weight of 145-pounds for the November 14 clash with Manny Pacquiao. Roach is not taking any chances. He wants to make sure Cotto doesn't pull a Floyd Mayweather Jr, who weighed 146-pounds for last Saturday's fight against Juan Manuel Marquez. The fight was contracted for 144. As punishment, Mayweather had to pay Marquez $600,000. [details]

this is exactly y pac and his hoe coach roach are ****ing frauds...beacuse " we want to make sure cotto doesnt use his weight as an advantage" wtf does that mean...lol y fight the welterweight champ but u dont want him to weight in a a real welterwight? wtf kinda **** is that...lol they always strop ppl of everything just to give pac the edge because we all know pac cant fight a true welterweight...and never will fight a true welterweight at 147 and the day he does will b the day he gets his ass ****ed up -
Roach is pulling all the stops lol.
I wouldn't be surprised if Roach complained about the hand wrap method of Cottos.Comment

I doubt Cotto will weigh more than 145. He made 146 for his last fight so it shouldn't be too hard.Comment
-
Roach wants to make sure he has an extra chance of Cotto getting bruised and cut, like or more than his previous bouts, and hes also countng on Cottos chin and stamina to be at the lowest strenght possibleComment
-
Ofcourse he'll make weight.Comment
-
Cotto isn't that kind of person.
And even if he was, 145 isn't hard for him to make.Comment

Miguel is a professional boxer.
One thing I like about Miguel Cotto is he is a no nonsense kind of professional. He doesn't go in the ring to hold and play games. He comes to fight. He respects rules and knows the importance of having them. When it comes time to go to work, you can be sure he's on his job.
Freddy Roach is very nervous as he should be. His fighter is going up against a very good fighter in Miguel Cotto and so he's voicing his concerns. Any little thing that comes up expect Freddy to have something to say about it. He will make sure his guy has every advantage conceivable. As the pacman will need it.
I'm actually not sure who will win this fight. Cotto isn't slow. Cotto can box. And Cotto does hit hard. These guys are pretty much the same height and are basically even when it comes to reach. Pacman isn't a small guy anymore. He's a bit smaller yes but he isn't a small guy. He belongs where he is which is why he is at welterweight. Oscar says Pacman didn't hit hard but that's because Ocsar can weigh up to 180 or more off season. Oscar can fight at 154 or 160 if he wanted to.
I'm sure Hatton doesn't think Pacman doesn't hit hard. Cotto is a legitimate welterweight and pacman is a relatively small welterweight. He believes he will win and that's why he's fighting Cotto. Cotto is happy he thinks this way. That's why he's taking this fight.
I don't think either Cotto or Pacquiao have anything to worry about in reference to shenanigans or Tom-foolery taking place. Both of these guys are well mannered and classy guys. They have a lot of respect for themselves as they are fighting for their families and their respective countries.Comment
