    Well, cotto will be getting down to a weight he hasn't made in a long time. Many people who support Cotto's opponent will tell you that "it's only one or two pounds" from what Cotto weighed before.

    Well, if one or two pounds isn't significant, then why did Team Pac INSIST that the fight be at 145? Why are Diaz and Malignaggi negotiating so much over 1.5 pounds? Examples abound.

    I kinda wish that Pac would have taken the fight at 147. Especially since a title is at stake. In my eyes (and possibly my eyes only. Just an opinion.) a Pac win is tainted, as it is in the Delahoya win.
    of his 8 fights at 147 , cotto has been 146 5 of those 8.

    i doubt 145 will be a problem.

    whoever wins at 145 will win at 147 tbh.

    if pac beats him at 145 , he can beat him at 147 and vice versa.

      speed obviously is a big part of pacmans style..but i think its his off rhythmn and the angles he attacks that make him so damn good

          It will be lights out,party over in 2 rounds AGAIN.

          PACQUIAO will retire COTTA just like he retire HOYA and HATTON.
          Woa...lol Calm down dude!

          Pac is good...and Cotto is too...but to play devil's advocate Pac would have to stick and move from Cotto's power. If he does that long enough to land punches on Cotto, he probably can take him in the later rounds.

          But again, I'm going with Cotto, on a lot of factors too many to list... but that's my two cents!

            pac's lethal weapon for the fight is going to be his STAMINA.

            cotto can neutralize speed.. but he cant DO **** ..about manny pac's stamina.. just try to get his better..

              Thats how I feel. I am interested to see how that plays out. I think in the Cotto fight Pac will get hit and it will be the first time that he gets hit hard since moving up in weight. If he can handle that then Cotto may have some problems.
