    I answered that twice already.
    He came up most of these weight classes because he was still growing. A man can grow until about 25. His true division is lightweight, or thereabouts.

    Cotto also outgrew the lightweight and jr welter classes. In his last few fights at 140 he had a very hard time making the weight, which left him weaker and more likely to be knocked down. Due to his fighting spirit and determination, he was always able to get up and somehow win.

    Since he's been a full 147 lb'er I don't think that he's even been shaken.

    The Margarito fight must be viewed as a fraud, and should be expunged from his record.

      Now, if your not afraid of a man, why make a catchweight?
      $2M is a lot of money. ($1M for every excess of 1lb of the catchweight)

      Why wouldn't it be one of the reasons for a catchweight?

        Cotto's only advantage is size or the physical strenght only but that won't be enough against the pacman. Qoute me on this. This will be another brutal beatdown win by th pacman.

          So when did you start watching him and making these observations?

                At least Manny is grateful to Roach for what he has done to his career.. unfortunately you could not see that.

                  I mean to say, he's a top notch boxer, and I always like watching his fights, but he's a guy who barely knows to scratch his head when it itches.

                  Everything smells of roses as far as he's concerned. But he's wrong about the Roach. It has been Bob Arum who has taken him, and made him into a multi-millionaire. What the Roach has done is to make sure he gets his 10%.
                  dude FYI...he already bought a industrial zone in his province...

                    Please enlighten me. What **** has Cotto actually said? And don't tell me "I am going to win" or anything regarding how DLH and Hatton were both vulnerable fighters. I await your response.

                      Pacquiao is worried, why else would he keep talking about Cotto's size? I think Manny is starting to come to reality and knows he has a legit opponent who is not just gonna lay down for Pacquiao.
