        This isn't about why cotto lost. This is about why Manny needed the extra 2lbs. Those two lbs, and the 4 lbs vs Margarito take away from his accomplishmenst. ESPECIALLY, when you consider that the only fighter on his level, floyd mayweather jr, won both those titles from champions at the division max.

        Floyd gave up AT LEAST 12-15 lbs (HBO estimate) on fight night to both Baldo and ODH. So when you talk about accomplishments I think floyd's are better, given the context. Had Manny fought at 147 or 154 I'd have NOTHING to post.

        Manny is a great fighter. But I think he deserves fair criticism for the catchweights and the failure to defend several of his titles. He won WITH the advantage while floyd won WITHOUT. I think that means something.

          so just because someone reasons that Cotto performed badly that night because he was weight drained automatically makes it an excuse? Probably has more to do with you being on the other side. And Cotto has never been one to make excuses (even if he felt it was a reason), that means a boxing fan can't have his own opinion?

              catchweight is something that has been done way before manny's time.. if a smaller guy is to fight a bigger guy the only way it would work is to agree on a weight for both fighters to come in at...this happens in other sports such as mma..this aint some street fight out in your backyard, all these guys are fighting on a professional level.. if the weight factor was such a huge difference then cotto would have not sign.. dont give me the it was his bggest pay day.. thats nothing but excuses.. lets see floyd fought jmm at a catchweight didnt he???

                  you're trying to make yourself feel better by assuming that I'm getting mad, when I was simply writing what I observed.

                  I'm not black btw, Tyson has a huge fan following of all races. By assuming that I am because of my avatar just makes you an idiot. Kinda like if I assumed you were filipino because of you're avi, although I know you're filipino.

                      I have no problem with catchweights for non title fights. I have a problem if the champ cant defend his title at the max weight. NOT ALL smaller guys ask for a catchweight. Floyd is just one example. Yes JMM was at a catchweight. In that case floyd came down he didn't make someone else come down. Again difference.

                      How can you say biggest payday is an excuse. Thats the reason Cotto took the fight. Don't pretend to not understand boxing business just because you like Manny.
