Why Is The Pac/Cotto Weigh- In So Late?

[El_Cholo]

Well, it is pretty late......was it just a scheduling issue or is the time between weigh-ins and fights a contractual issue? I don't really know and am curious now, you would think Cotto would want the longest time possible and if it was up to him the weigh-in would have been done now.

if the previous article on Cotto is true about his current weight then there should be no problems.

[El_Cholo]

Yes, it's obvious what they're trying to do. Now I hope Cotto surprises them and comes in at 147, just to piss them off.

who sets the time for weigh in's?

surely Team Cotto wouldn't accept Pac team dictating terms of when the weigh in will be ?!?!?

weighins are usually at 1ish the latest 3 this 6:00 weighin is crazy and blatant attempt of team fanny pac to hurt cotto

Yeah, but still it's an advantage for Pac. Say Cotto has 6-8 more hours to get back to natural weight, and more time for his body to recover.

Well I figure he will have about 30 hours between the scale and the fight.....enough time for him to rehydrate and eat about 4 full meals if he wants....also he was prepared and started him camp earlier to compensate for the 2 extra pounds.....I hope for a great fight as we all do.

It's at 6pm. Don't they usually do these a little earlier?

To give Cotto less time to rehydrate and weaken him in the process.Manny is a fraud and the earlier he gets knocked out the better

If Pacman can get his own catch weight belt and Arum states Pacman is the star of this fight in front of Cotto at the final presser...anything can happen in Pacman's favor.

My thoughts exactly.

[Nuurzhaelan]

c'mon guys leave the conspiracy theories alone.

roach got the belt, he got the catch-weight and he's bitching about low blows like he's going to bear Pacquiao's next child and now he's angling for a late weigh in. You could be right and this could all be unfounded speculation; but that's not what I think.
