    Castillo-Cotto...@147?

    Somebody else posted(Zab Super Judah) that it looks like castillo has trouble makin 140 even.I mean judging from all the reports,some reported castillo looked weak and damn the best he could do was get down to 140?!

    Should this fight happen then @147? Which Im sure would benefit cotto,but looks like it would help castillo alot too.

    What do you think?

      Castillo was visibly drawn and had trouble getting up while lying on the stage at the weigh-in. The concern over his weight prompted the WBC to weigh him at various times in his training, and Nevada boxing officials said he would forfeit up to 25 percent of his $900,000 purse if he was over the limit.

      None of that helped Castillo get anyway near the weight limit, and his own promoter, Bob Arum, angrily accused his fighter's camp of lying to him.

      "It's disgusting," Arum said. "If I was Corrales I wouldn't fight."

        Yeah it would be better for both Cotto and Castillo to make the fight at 147. If the fight with the winner of Gatti-Baldomir can't be made then I hope it's Castillo-Cotto at 147.

          Cotto/Castillo at 147 would be an outstanding fight, and that weight would be beneficial to both of them.

          I think that Cotto will carry his power very well into 147.

            Cotto will lose to Malignaggi. The fight won't be made.

              Cotto vs. Castillo at 140 or 147 would be great.I have been wanting to see this fight for quite sometime.

                The fight will be at 140, Cotto needs the belt to make this fight a main event ppv. Castillo made 140 today, so I don't see why he cant do it again, then again...

                    You picked that feather-fisted guido to beat Cotto.
