Your right they both want the fight. I do believe Manny is taking the bigger risk. Manny though, doesnt have any conditions on him, he can come in, in the best shape at what ever weight. Cotto has to come in at 145 or less. We all know boxers bodies can change from one fight to the other. That is why a lot of fighters have to move up in weight. Also Manny is moving up in weight, Cotto is not suppose to move down. I dont think its a big deal in this fight i just dont believe that those conditions should be put on a fighter. In the De La Hoya fight, regardless of weather he was drained or not they agreed that the fight take place at welterweight and De La Hoya weighed in at 147. I dont have a problem with that because De La Hoya was able to weigh the max in that division, Manny did what he had to do. The reason Manny doesnt get the credit is because the challenge should have been at 154. I still believe Manny would have kicked his ass but now well never know. Plus it takes a whole week to loose a pound with out killing yourself, which means thats a week of training dedicated to loosing one pound. Maybe that is why Cotto got an early start and Manny didnt.Works both ways, and both fighters want this fight, so they agreed to meet at 145. I see nothing wrong. Cotto only has to drop 1 pound since his last weigh in. So who's taking the risk here? It's clealy Manny Pacquiao.
If Cotto beat Pacquiao at the WW limit could you honestly say he'd beaten him at his best? Surely not. Pacquiao is a natural Jr. Welterweight. Beating him a division higher than his optimum weight wouldn't be as good.Comment

Manny ain't going to knockout Cotto,he might dazzle him for sure,but he has been dazzled before and well'we all know it will take more than speed to kill Cotto, Mosley has the same what Pac has but more Power and what were the results to that???I see Cotto getting hit but not budging back or losing his focus,,c'mon Cotto has great defense,Pac ain't going to get All his hits in.He will miss and Cotto does know how to time counterpunch and Cotto will be the one on top of Pac,with pressure and closing the ring for him,Pac will fight at him but when it comes for Pac to take his breathe Cotto won't let him...
freddie was just quoted in phils daily that manny has the power to t/ko cotto.
stoppage within the distance is now included in freddie's options.
peolpe will be surprised once again with manny's punching power.
manny can't hurt porter???
am not surprised at all...porter being a jrmw who probably weighs 170 lbs now.
am pretty sure manny can hurt cotto...what with his razor-fitted fists
