    I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. Cotto wants to call himself the world middleweight champion but he doesn't want to fight middleweights. This has **** to do with Canelo because Canelo holds no title and therefore is not obligated to fight at any particular weight. Cotto IS supposed to be the middleweight champion and he is obligated to defend his title at the 100 year old traditional weight limit of 160 pounds. If Cotto can't handle it he should drop the title and fight at whatever weight he wants to fight at.

      How come it's cool for pacman to fight under the welterweight limit for the title?

          Freddie Roach always wants catchweights. Thats why Pacquiao is the catchweight king.

            it wasn't cool but at least he was fighting cotto not geale! just like it wasn't cool for cotto to fight martinez at a catchweight but no one cares since it got a good fight done. cotto-geale isn't a good fight and doesn't require to be made at any weight.

              i thought the rematch never happened because cotto his ass kicked so bad in the 1st.

              cotto too small for 160.

              too big for 147.

              not good enough for 154.

              poor cotto.

                  Welter is PACs 7th division, 10 above his starting weight. No one has gone through more weight classes without a CW. Even then, he's only demanded 2CWs. Cotto about to force his 3rd

                      Who cares? Cotto is a small 160 pounder it is smart to get them down in weight. Pacquiao, De La Hoya, Hopkins everyone does catchweight fights.
