Pacquiao Admits Catchweight Is Crucial To Beating Cotto

[Devils Advocate]

people who think the catchweight meant nothing are trippin..if it didnt mean anything..it wouldve been demanded

Truth is Cotto knew what he was getting into, he signed the contract b/c he wanted that money at the end of the day it was his decision he could have waited for Mayweather

I'm as big as a Cotto fan there is, but stop making excuses for Cotto about the weight. He didn't lose because he had to weigh 145, he admitted the weight wasn't an issue. The problem was he was training himself, there is no way anyone is going to beat Manny if they are preparing themselves for the fight.

why is it if someone doesn't ***** or complain everythiong is ok? cotto was afighter that struggled to make the 140 weight and if u watch the 24/7 there were times where miguel looked moody because he couldn't eat real food

your right about that but idk if he would of got a fight with floyd for beatin jennings and barely beating clottey

I bet if you were pacquiao himself you would ask the same thing. coming from lightweight you don't even consider meeting in between?

how was manny comin from lightweight? is manny the only fighter to move up in weight?

first time ok, not again though

Just post a pic of food because your dumbass never has a good point.

catchweight fights happen all the time and rarely does it mean much, especially in this case when we're talking about 1 pound. Pernell Whitaker came down in weight still schooled chavez. Hopkins came down in weight to 156 from 160 and still schooled oscar. In fact, almost always the big guy coming down wins. Check history.

Ask yourself if cotto vs pac would turned out any differently if not for that one pound.

are you comparing pernell and bhop to someone like cotto?

They are better fighters technically than cotto on any day.

if it meant nothing..then why ask for the catchweight..??

I ask you the same question. Your answer will be the answer to your question. But I don't think you can answer this question because it will shutdown your mind and reasoning.

(Floyd catchweight fight vs JMM) if it meant nothing..then why ask for the catchweight..??

yeah that 1 pound surely drained cotto so badly!

the catchweight was meaningless in that fight.

IF they fight again, and it's a catchweight, that would be bull**** though and cotto if put in that position needs to man up and say no.

How about Pacquiao mans up and stops begging for catch weights or steroid grace periods?

You have to look at things from Cotto's perspective though. It would be like saying no to a second chance and the biggest oppurtunity and payday in his boxing career. I think he will take the fight, and put his belt on the line, at a catchweight as low as 150.

Why not? He has the world to gain.
