Between 160-163 lbs.

and Floyd?

[D4thincarnation]

on fight night? 10-15?

7/8lbs

Floyd will be around 155lbs Cotto around 163lbs

I say from 6 to 8 pds above May's weight.

At welterweight, Cotto rehydrated to 159 pounds. Seeing how he claims he can't make 147 anymore, he has to have grown a bit. He says he can still make 150, so he probably enters the ring around 162lbs. (I'm just guestimating by adding 3 pounds to 159 because 3 pounds is the difference between 147 and 150)

and Floyd?

no bigger than 154lbs.

Six or seven at most

Floyd is an inch taller than Cotto, he was pretty light for his fight vs Ortiz, but when he fought SSM he looked at least as heavy if not a little heavier than Shane on fight night. Cotto is fighting in a heavier weight class, that doesnt mean he walks around any bigger than he did at WW. Even when Cotto was fighting at JWW, for instance, he made 140 vs Corley, and was 157 fight night. A major part of the advantage in moving up in weight class for a fighter like Cotto in not having to cut as much weight. I think Cotto is 160-161 in the ring, with Floyd about 154.

[intoccabile]

like 7

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

Clottey is 5'8".. what's your point? Height seldomly has anything to do with it.

less than Ortiz did.
