157 is lower than I was expecting if there was a catchweight and to be honest, I really think he wouldn't ask for one. ESPECIALLY lower than what he won the title at, he's still my favorite fighter but I can definitely say it hurt his stock.
You guys were right with the hate. It wasn't behind door 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 but I'll give you door #6.
I think people are a little too outraged though, Manny and Floyd have done this before it's nothing new. But for some reason Cotto is a coward and they weren't, maybe it's because they have more fans so they have more defenders as well. They also did it at the highest weight classes they were in, so yeah, you guys need to get a life to be excited about hating someone so much. But it's certainly deserved.

Here is a copy and paste of a post of mine in another similar tread. This tread is out of control for no good reason...
Weights classes where almost randomly set to begin with because classes are needed for fighter protection. 154 is just a random number set for jmw. There is nothing sacred about 160. All fighters basically cheat weights anyway except maybe mayweather. Fighters go through extremes to get to their weight class. Starvation, dehydration and sometimes even stripping naked. A mw will come in 15 pounds above 160. So most mas aren't really even 160s. So people need to relax. Cotto woukd just want to minimize the rehydration when cotto will barely gain 5 pounds. Like the martinez weight of 159 everyone thought it was foot being a diva but in reality it was protection from rehydration.
Catch weightswere invented for us fans. We all want to see our favorite fights go up against another fav but happens to be in another weight class. So a catch weight is a compromise to give us fans fights we want to see while not killing off fighters.

Cotto should just vacate if he doesnt want to fight at 160.
The solution is simple.Comment
