160 is a great weight to be at

Sounds good

PERFECT, right where he should be. . . I have a feeling Cotto is going to look like ten million bucks in this fight - but then again, i think that is what this fight was made for. cotto is still a world class fighter, and i still pick him over A LOT of top boxers from 147-154. his speed will be HUGE AT 154, especially since it appears steward is making him more of a "boxer". he has the best jab in the weight range, IMO.

cotto is too short for 160 lbs... just imagine cotto vs pavlik...

[Foolkiller]

I bet Pavlik doesn't weigh 160lbs 3 weeks before fight night.

I've seen some pics and video of cotto inbetween fights and he blows up pretty bad. He was pretty out of shape in the video I saw.

Cotto needs to cut back on the meatballs on a stick him and his fat friend were always eating during the Pacquiao-Cotto 24/7. And Cotto isnt two short for 160, look at what Martinez did to Pavlik and Pwill.

Cotto is way too small for Pavlik. Why are you trying to compare Cotto to Martinez? Martinez is 5'11" and Cotto is 5'8". That is a huge difference plus Martinez has more handspeed than Cotto.
