Will that 1 pound affect your view on a possible Cotto victory?

[Explosions]

Let's say Cotto goes on to win the fight, will you give him the same credit you would have gave him without the 1 pound catchweight?

I will, I mean, it's just one pound. It's more of a psychological/mental thing than it is physical.

But since I see some people burning Cotto for it, I'm interested to know if that 1 pound will make you give him as much credit as you would have given him if he would have fought Margarito at 154?

[hhs661]

I don't care. If I were Marg, I'd come in at 154 and refuse to lose that extra pound. Just get fined and go on and fight.

[AnimalisticMeth]

I really don't believe all this BS to be honest with you. The only people talking about this are Margarito's team. Arum denied it and I have not seen a single story about a catchweight in the Puerto Rican newspapers. And now they agreed to 153? I mean 152 makes sense but 153? Don't believe it.

[Evil Abed]

Its more funny than anything.

I think Margo would have had issues making 154 after the massive beating he took from Pac IMO

That's why fighters who take massive beatings usually comeback in CW fights(Above there normal weight) so they can ease there way back.

It might have a small effect on Margo. So a little less credit.

I was honestly thinking the same thing. Maybe this is their way of getting back at Team Cotto messing with them..??

Plus, this has only been confirmed by Margarito's manager, not Top Rank certified official.

[AntonTheMeh]

nah. 150 would have.

[SixFootGiant]

It shouldnt make a difference, all I know is if Cotto loses this fight him and his fans would be mentally broken and shattered

[savorduhflavor]

Nah, the pound won't affect him, the victory is good for Cotto and it doesn't take away from the victory.

It does take away from his balls though.

[Everywhere]

I don't think he would want to look like a catchweight coward the same way people see Pacquiao...Cotto has too much pride to want to look like that.

[MindBat]

Cotto: "Marga, let's fight so I can kick your asss and redeem myself."

Marga: "You got it. Let's do it."

Cotto: "Ok, but we'll have to do it at a catch-weight."

Marga: "A catch who?"

Cotto: "Bless you."

Marga: "I didn't sneeze, bitch. You say you want a catch weight to make the fight?"

Cotto: "I didn't stutter. You heard me."

Marga: "What a pusssy! Fight me like a man! Let's do it at 154 you Puerto Rican embicile! I'll beat you down and snatch that belt you stole!"

Cotto: "Stole? I'll beat you so bad, you'll regret ever covering your knuckles in plaster, you bitch! Come down to 150 and I'll hand your head to you in front of your Mexican fans."

Marga: "150?! Holy virgen de altagracia mamacita que lo pario! You come down to 147 and I'll beat you so bad you'll wish I was wearing plaster wraps."

Cotto: "F-You!"

Marga: "F-You right back!"

Cotto: "I guarantee if you come in at 153 I'll make you wish you were never born a Mexican! Deal!?"

Marga: "That's a deal! Sig it! I'ma hit you so hard you will fly to Mexico thinking you arrived in Puerto Rico!"
