        i dont think cotto will be that big, hes training with a cuban now and their style of training is focused more on speed and movement than strenght. i doubt miguel will be over 162 on fight night. most likely under 160.

        floyd wont put on hardly any weight himself though, 155 tops on fight night probably less. thats a 7lb diffrence if we say miguel is 162, sounds about right to me. weight diffrence will be like 5-9lbs imo.

            no but some believe he can be 149-150 and that Cotto can get to 165. That wouldnt shock me at all. I think he will be atleast 160 and probably 162

                  Floyd comes in at 151-153 Cotto at 157-159

                  You guys are acting like cotto is some big guy lol he's 5'7

                  Victor Ortiz(5'9, 165 as a welterweight) is bigger at 147 on fight night than cotto is at 154

                  Gotta agree with you man.

                  That is where I expect them both to come in roughly around at.

                    cotto at 165 would be an easy target. I think cotto is gonna be 158 fight night. Cotto is a small JMW.

                      IDK what he will be but I talked about this in another thread and said that it was ****** for him to come in light like others say he should. The fact is that Floyd is faster. No matter what Cotto does, Floyd will be faster.

                      Those pounds will not help him. Floyd is going to have that advantage so Cotto should give that up and play to his advantages of being bigger & stronger. Come in at 162 or more and try to bully & overpower Floyd.

                      Again, I dont care if he's 156. Its not going to make him that much faster and definitely not enough for him to compete with Floyd. Just give that up and try to bully him & out muscle him.

                      Trust me, Floyd would love it if Cotto gives up his size advantage by trying to be smaller. All that will happen is that Cotto will still be too slow and now Floyd will probably be stronger than him in the ring which willl lead to a total whitewash
