I just want to start this off by saying I am a fan of both fighters, and do not feel that Cotto will have ANY TROUBLE coming in at 145....this is just a "what if?" question.
IF Miguel Cotto somehow does not make 145 I know there is a $1 million fine for every pound over 145. Say Cotto comes in at 147....instead of paying the $2 mill fine, can Pacquiao and his team decline the fine and make Cotto re-weigh in until he comes in at 145? I mean, come fight night Pac is probly gonna be giving up 6-8 lbs IF cotto makes 145. If Cotto comes in at 147 he could be giving up 10-11 lbs. Is that a possibility or is the only way around it to pay the fine?
