Pacquiao Admits Catchweight Is Crucial To Beating Cotto

Pacquiao Admits Catchweight Is Crucial

It always is for him.

It's so annoying that we've never seen Paq in a real fire fight outside of the first Morales and two Marquez fights. He always has some dead weight in front of him.

And the one guy that he's supposed to be fighting could give us that kind of fight, only he's too scared

Lol @ people trying to justify the beating Cotto took.

Lol @ people trying to justify the beating Cotto took.

Looks to me like Pac made the quotes, No one else.

Cotto is a warrior and would never admit anything like that, whether it is true or not does not matter.

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

Absolutely hilarious! Never heard that before.

Just sign the damn contract, Floyd, so these fans of yours don't have to whine about Pac fighting Cotto or Margarito.

**** the catchweight premises Manny! Not cool about it that your team's offering it the 2nd time! I expect Cotto to say NO if this fight get's made!


But man look at the fanboys having a party at this piece of news!

[Chups]

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

It's crucial for both, it just so happens that the one who went down the weight lost. There are a lot of catch weight fights in where the one who went up lost. Pavlik-Hopkins, Wright-Hopkins, Chavez-Whitaker...etc....etc....

Just sign the damn contract, Floyd, so these fans of yours don't have to whine about Pac fighting Cotto or Margarito.

Manny already signed? I haven't read any breaking news that he did. Run along.

Freddy Roach should just let Cotto weigh in @ 147, the outcome from the last fight still won't be any different.

Then tell him to Stop the ****ing Catch weight crap.

You all know why Cotto was getting hurt at 140 and how Cotto was doing at 147. We all saw the 24/7 how bad he was doing and how he looked in the weight in. Some of you are ridiculous.

Plus the fact how a lot of people still think he was drug enhanced.

i can't even front---i say manny would have beaten cotto regardless------but, my only problem with that fight was cotto putting up his title for the fight, which he shouldn't have done--now, manny gets all the credit in the world, when he didn't win a title at 147---that's nonsense---floyd gets hammered for coming in overweight against jmm, when floyd said it was a ww fight, and never said he would come it at 144, just watch his interviews building up to the fight-----but, at least no titles were on the line----manny was wrong in being recognized as the ww champion when he beat a guy at 145----but then fought clottey at 147-----now he is thinking about fighting cotto again at another catchweight for cotto's 154 pound title? aw man the irony----if floyd did this, he would be crucified by you people and you know----don't even try to deny it---you guys blame him for everything that goes wrong anyway------

why should manny be considered a 7 division champion, and breaking the record when he hasn't won a title at 147 fighting at 147---that's bull****----cotto gets drained, manny gets glory-----

people talk about manny jumping up 2 weight classes and making history by pumbling oscar, being the 1st smaller guy to stop oscar, then ko'ing hatton, being to 1st guy to ever knock him out cold, although floyd stopped him first, by manny cold clocked him, puut him to sleep----then he fights cotto at 145 for hid 147 title----why couldn't he fight at 147? did he really fight oscar at 147? i don't think so-----was clottey for that matter 147 when he fought manny? there's a lot of fishy **** that goes on in the pacquiao camp------

many fighters have moved up from smaller weight classes to bigger weight classes that were legit classes, not catchweights, and have dominated bigger guys----floyd mayweather jr is one----no catchweight title fights either----how come manny doesn't get bashed for that?
