LOL i'm not the biggest Canelo fan but i'm glad they're taking it slow with him.
Maybe he won't end up like Vargas after they fed him to Lions at a young age.

Canelo is gonna be great. He has so much potential at 20 it's crazy.

Oscar should have retired manny there and then. Politicians in the phil planned to boycott the fight for manny sake. But the excuses came after the fight end and the hate campaign continue to this day.

Weight is no different. The work required for a fighter who is pushing it to get to 147 tolose another 2 lbs affects his training. Instead of working on strategy the fighter must run or sweat. This istrue for ANY fighter.
Again, if Manny didn't think it would be an advantage he wouldn't have used his negotiating leverage to insist on it.

they could have asked for it cause they wanted an "advantage"
but on the fight itself, it didn't show that cotto losing 1 pound affected him.
he could have weighed in at 147 and he still would have gotten his ass kicked just as bad
