It sure doesn't sound as if Cotto had to sign a multiple-fight deal with GBP in order to get this fight. Would like to hear an answer to that question.

I like Pacquiao, but 148 is disgraceful and he shouldn't have even bothered requesting it. I get the whole issue where he wont fight above 150..... but this is disgraceful at 148.

I agree I love Pac but he fought Margarito at 150lb & fought at WW but wanted Cotto at 145lb in the 1st fight. I could understand if he had never fought at that weight but he's giving the impression that its ok to fight Margarito at that weight but with Cotto he feels like he needs to take a little weight off him. I love Pac & Floyd im a huge fan of both but I hate catchweights to suit fighters & Floyd is doing the right thing fighting Cotto at his weight. In my opinion the sactioning bodies shouldn't be sanctioning world title fights at catch weightsLast edited by TonkaJones; 02-03-2012, 07:48 AM.

No no you are right...not dominant.....Definition of DOMINANT(Per Webster's)
1a : commanding, controlling, or prevailing over all others@140 (lightwelter) 25-0 14 title defenses, @147 7-2*(*Margacheato part 1)and a loss to the P4P #1 and finally @154 3-0..not great opposition for the most part. It is simply ignorant to state he was never dominant....shot....eh we will see. Cotto is 5'7" Pac is 5'6 1/2" Cotto is fighting people much bigger than him..no catchweight crap (the Margarito 2 was simply for mind games) Floyd me very well win, but Cotto has a better chance at beating him than Pacman.....based on styles, and tools alone!!!
