Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Will Not Fight Miguel Cotto Above 147-Pounds

[LeadUppercut]

no no no

pac was told of 3-4 fighters who wanted him, he picked 1 and will give the shot at the the number 1 or 2 spot depending on how you see it. Pac is not chasing cotto, everyone is chasing pac

same applies to floyd mate, everyone will be chasing him, when he goes for a fight, golden boy will give him a few options and he will choose 1

This is like hatton and mayweather, floyd was the top dog, hatton wanted a piece of him so challenged him at 147

cotto wants pacman so he will challenge him at 147, last time pac was 140, so cotto challenged him at 145

The bottom line: Pacquiao only fights old men, faded champions, and bums..... but only after he beats them on the scales and disadvantages them contractually.

Lmfao... so your saying floyd fought judah before he got ko'd by baldomir? And margarito was considered the baddest man on the planet at that time and paul williams and cotto were undefeated at that time. Why not fight any of those 3 instead of a judah that just got knocked out? Get off floyds nutts for a while...

Listen, Floyd agreed to fight Judah before he lost to Baldomir (he didn't get KO'd by Carlos) Margarito stepped to Floyd and asked for the fight when Floyd was chasing Oscar and Floyd told him to keep winning and it would be greater later and what did Margarito do? He lost to Paul Williams in his next fight. A man Margarito was ducking because he wanted to fight Cotto but didn't want to get stripped by not facing his mandatory "Paul Williams" PLUS Arum didn't want to guarantee Floyd a fight with Oscar or the money he wanted for Cotto/Hatton in order to fight Margarito. Fact that you keep saying Judah got knocked out by Baldomir proves my point of you being not knowledgeable.

Its gonna be pointless to explain this to him as he obviously doesn't remember anything because he only became a boxing fan in 2008.
Most don't remember that Arum and Mayweather had that nasty split and Arum and Mayweather were not going to negotiate any fight. No Margarito or Cotto.

This fight is seriously lame. Pacquiao already destroyed Cotto in a one-sided fight. This rematch is pointless, ESPECIALLY if it's at 147 lbs. I will certainly boycott this match if it happens. Manny needs to get his ass in the ring with Floyd on May 5. Enough of this horse****.

[KingTito]

What *****. I hope this fight doesn't get made.

[AndyShitHot]

So in other words they are wanting to drain Cotto again in order to get an advantage.

This is such a ***** move by Pacquiao. He already drained Cotto once, I seriously hope that Cotto doesn't fall for this ****.
He already told Arum pretty much to **** himself when they were trying to move the Margs fight from New York, and he said he wouldn't fight. I hope he does the same here. Cotto is a full jr middleweight now. He should not go down below 152.
Plus he's in control. He can rest and wait for Chavez Jr, fight Canelo, Mayweather.

I agree, Cotto doesn't need Pacquiao below 152, here are plenty of great fights to be had at LMW. Cotto has at least a couple of big money fights left for him without having to drain himself again.

I can't think of a catch-weight right now where I felt a fighter was at a disadvantage so much so that the outcome was affected by it. Maybe Oscar-Hopkins but hell Hopkins came in at 156 instead of the catch-weight of 158 just to prove a point.

And, it's not so much the catch-weight that makes you cheat history, it's the multiple titles and bogus ranking like Pac-Margarito...If Pac-Margarito was at 154, Pac still cheated history by fighting a guy who wasn't ranked in the top 30 at JMW.

And, again I don't see any issues with catch-weights with day before weigh-ins...Maybe if we had same day weigh-ins sure.

LOL the key phrase is you saying " where I felt " and the ignoramus phrase " And, again I don't see any issues with catch-weights with day before weigh-ins...Maybe if we had same day weigh-ins sure. "

Dont talk about weight its not your forte , a matter of fact you dont know what your talking about with weight , CWs interfere with your training weight right through camp stripping muscle mass , your final week peaking is critical , off coarse its relative to the actual CW and your own body system because they all work different , but to think that a day before weigh-in will fix what weeks of fasting have done is so ignorant .

The worst case of severe CW issues for many years was ODH vs Pac , when you got to have IV Fluids to try and get some fluid back in because your normal system has shut down is deadman walking .

Blame both sides. lol

Yeah lol. That's become a hilarious and obvious deflection.
