Hell yes, do I think that is a completely different situation, you have no reason whatsoever to admire Miguel Cotto, apart from the obvious of course.
Cotto flatly refused Pacquiao's catch-weight demand, he said "147 if you want my title, but no-title if you need a catchweight". Of course, Manny demanded a catchweight and the title, it became a major sticking point that bought negotiations to a halt, so Cotto was forced to concede.
Manny actually demanded 143, even though his trainer Freddie Roach agreed to 144..... lucky for Miguel that he stuck to his guns, or those cherry-picking ****s would have dragged him down to 143lbs.....
That was a b1tch move, worse than Mayflowers b1tch-move with Marquez.
There was no need whatsoever for that catch-weight because Pac had already fought at 147, and he ended up fighting for a JMW title.
Cotto was well-faded, shopworn, and had just been battered by Margarito and Clottey..... he had slipped, he was not on top of his game, and he was vulnerable and ripe-for-the-picking.
Manny dragged Cotto down in an attempt to disadvantage him, and he is dragging the midget Marquez UP for the exact same reason.
As I said, that is unjustifiable in my opinion.
Well, it would be more comfortable for BOTH guys if that bout was held at JWW, Manny's best fighting weight.....
Remember, a catch-weight is supposed to be middle-ground, it is supposed to produce a fairer contest..... so why the *** are they fighting at welter if Pac is a natural JWW and Marquez is a lightweight?
If that fight was held at JWW, Manny wouldnt need to eat 6 meals a day including 3am/6am shakes just to remain at welter
Doug Fischer, a Pacquiao fan, knows whats up.....
" However, this fight only makes sense to me if it takes place at junior welterweight (and I would hope Marquez would weigh-in under 140 pounds). Why Pacquiao and company refuse to even consider fighting Marquez at 140 pounds (instead of the 144 or 147 they stipulate) is a very good question. The answer is obvious: they want every conceivable advantage against their aging but still-dangerous nemesis ".....

Sure he deserves the payday, but he also deserves to be treated with more respect, and he deserves not to be disadvantaged on the scales, again.
Actually, they are showing him the ultimate respect, and I saw the 2008 rematch, so I know why.
I am sick and tired of Pacquiao's weight games and contractual manipulations. A great fighter wins in the ring, not on the scales.
Thats because I lose it sometimes
But the hate thing, is a cheap duck, plain and simple.
Hate is worthless, and can be easily discredited with facts and logical reasoning, just like I do. The " hate " card ("you are just a hater")..... is a cheap duck by someone who is out-of-his-depth.
Appreciate the back and forth, and, your advice is noted
