        both Dawson and Cotto did not care, that's why they agreed.
        only the hating fans care.

          idiotic question! Pac's team determines fight weight for an advantage. Dawson CALLED OUT Ward and said that he would go down a division to fight. And like someone already said 168 is an actual division. (145,150, etc. aren't division limits, these are team Pac limits)

            you guys are talking about dawson like he's aleady fought and was drained

            he'll probably be effected negatively, but he could look absolutely fine.

            until he acutally fights we wont know what effect it has had. maybe if we get a picture of him a few weeks out and he already looks like bam bam rios on fight week then we'll know it's an issue


            patience, my brothers. patience.

            if dawson looks like a zombie then you can start to complain and have a point

              do people realize the amount of catch weight fights there are in boxing?
              i don't think they do.

              lol like if marquez beat mayweather(if he actually did follow the catchweight) would everyone be saying oh its because mayweather was drained?

              theres been TONS of catch weight fights in boxing history and every year.......smh Haters Hate.

                Did Cotto look like a zombie?

                  NONE. Dawson asked for the fight and set the weight.
