Cotto didn't make excuses about the 2 pounds when Manny stopped him

[Vasyl’s dad]

So does that mean people will stop trying to use that as an excuse as to why he lost?

Stop trying to make different scenarios the same. Did Cotto have a busted knee? No then shut the **** up.

I'm pretty sure he did.

He didn't say anything directly after the fight.

It started to come out later though.

Miguel doesnt think its the two lbs is the reason he lost. He might think he could have done a bit better without the CW, but he just rates Pac that highly.

He said Floyd is avoiding Pac cos he knows Pac would beat him quite easy.

All the Cotto fans be talking about the Pacquiao fight today Come on dude.

What's mostly brought up is how MP didn't want a rematch without another catchweight or how he never made other WW's beside JMM fight him at a CW. My argument is that was Manny's team's intent, to drain Cotto a bit. Cotto said it didn't, so I've always stayed with his word on that.

He lost to a prime Manny Pacquiao. There is no shame in that with the terrible corner he had back then. Not that he wins easy with a different trainer, just that things WOULD be different.
