" It was the most physical, ever, because he made it that way because he wanted to beat Cotto at his own game, he wanted to prove that he’s really a welterweight, he’s not just a blown up welterweight. He’s at true ’47-pounder and beat a guy that way," explained Roach

hes a true 145lber.

He's been fighting 138-144 weigh-in all his recent fights, so definitely his not a full fledged welter, weight-wise. And he has the trump card so the other guy should fight him in his weight class if they want to have a big pay day with him. Unless of course he wants to fight them at 147, it really is his decision at the end of the day. Though I'd like him fighting at 140 or 147.Last edited by Larrysbird; 11-18-2009, 04:01 PM.Comment

I still think Manny is not a true Welter. Just because he beat some welters doesn't mean he's a true welter. He is better than them forsure but he is still a Jr. Welter to me. Those welter guys are still to big for him."
