    Would a 140 Cotto been more competetive against PAC?!

    The light welter Miguel who was not yet having problem making weight against the 138lb. Pacman who destroyed Ricky Hatton. I have chills just thinking of that fantasy match-up. Thoughts...

    As far as I know, Cotto was always too big for 140. Either way, Pacquiao beats him. Pac is just the wrong formula for Cotto.

      No Cotto was at his best pre Margarito at 147. If we are talking about Pac pre Ariza i think Cotto beats the **** out of him at 140.

        I think Pre-margarito Cotto and Pacquiao that fought post-margo Cotto....
        that right there would've been even more brutal.

        That's prime Cotto and prime Pacquiao at work....damn. just imagine.

          I think a 147lb Cotto with Evangelista would've been more competitive..but that ***** roach and his tactics struck Team Cotto at the perfect time with Joe Santiago and limited him to 145lbs.

          I'm not gonna argue with the dumbazzes who always claim "it's only 1lb from his previous weigh in!!"

          These idiots try to justify any form of b!tchazzness when it's convinient to their point..cuz if it were that simple and it was only 1lb from his previous match why even mess with the divisions limits and create your own?..

              come on man, cotto got his ass kicked fair and square.

              weighing in at 147 won't make a difference

                    Did I ever say Cotto would have won?..

                    The question was if it would be "more competitive"..

                    As far as I'm concerned Santiago is a **** trainer..and Cotto trained himself and his entire camp was focused on making the weight limit..if u didn't notice the weigh in..the entire Cotto team sighed in happiness and even got ****y when he made weight..they won their personal weight battle..

                    Evangelista and Cotto at 147 would have went the distance 7 rounds to 5 for Pac..hence more competitive..and MY OPINION..you feel otherwise..good for you..
