Comments Thread For: Roach Prefers Miguel Cotto Rematch For Manny Pacquiao

[Bushbaby]

So Pac is to small to fight Cotto.. at any weight class because he drains him regardless... but Floyd can fight Cotto at Cottos full weight ... But Pac isnt too small to fight Floyd?

If Pac is too small to fight at 154, then don't challenge 154lb fighters, simple as.

Been saying it for years. Stopped supporting Pacman after they chose to fight Margarito. Went to war tooth & nail with Pact@rds in the ensuing years & now finally people are seeing him for what he is.

He's greater than Cotto.

He's already destroyed him.

Yet he continually calls him out.

Furthermore he asks for yet another catchweight.

Enough is enough.

If Cotto accepts the CW of 150 and gets beat again by Pac in no way I see that it would enhance the bargaining with Floyd.

Floyd will hold on that he fought Cotto at the weight he was more confortable with when Pac had to demand a CW

If Pac wants him that bad he should let him come at any weight up to 154. Its not like Cotto is going to hydrate back to 170lb

[I Love Jesus!]

Why does there always have to be a catchweight with Cotto

It's not just Cotto it's any bigger fighter and the reason is Pacquio is small. It's not exactly rocket science is it?

[Perro]

Cotto is a money fight

Marquez is a money fight

Bradley would be a revenge fight

Seems like Roach wants Cotto, Arum wants Marquez, and Pac wants Bradley (not confirmed) but if that's a case I can see why Manny is having a hard time choosing, with all these names being thrown at him from different directions.

Correction: Pac can challenge a 154lb limit fighter within the 154lb limit.

But how many times has Pac come in at 150lbs? Let alone 154lbs?

Just because Pac isn't a natural 154lber, and beat Cotto, Marg, and an old ass DLH, doesn't mean anything about the weight.

That's why he gets the props he does, because he's come from 106 to 150 lbs and is kicking ass.

Don't tell me when you look at Cotto and Pac you see the same build, height has little to do with it. Cotto is a bigger man, naturally. They may both be the same height but Cotto is the naturally bigger man.

Who wants to see these dumb fights anyway? DO people think Cotto will beat Pac? Seriously?

Cotto is the bigger man. However, he was also a bigger man than Mayweather. That didn't stop him going to 154 and testing himself against a peak Cotto.

Honestly, at 154 I do think Cotto wins. Apparently Pac's camp think the same.

What the hell does that even mean?

How many times did Floyd fight at JR MW before fighting a SOLID, top 3 JR MW in Oscar?

Who gives a ****... how many times did Roy fight at 168, before fighting the best in the division?

That's what fighters DO.

That's why he gets the props he does, because he's come from 106 to 150 lbs and is kicking ass.

He was 106lbs when he was 16 years old... the only reason he gets to add it to his resume is because he happened to turn pro before most fighters would because he lived in a 3rd world country and needed to make a living... otherwise, what he did was normal, Floyd was the same weight at the same age, just stayed in the Ams.

Cotto is the taller man.

Where does power come from son?

You ever compare Cottos legs to Pacs?

Everyone thinks Pac is the smaller man... look at that mans Legs.. they're Tyson-esque tree trunks... and he flattened the man at 140lbs with a single punch.

You're not correcting ****.. I know the rules. You can challenge the 154lb belt and come in at 12 pounds if you want too. Just dont DRAG the man defending the 154lb championship down.

You wanna come in light? Go ahead... but dont try to drain the champion to get an edge.

Weak ****.
