Originally posted by S a m u r a i View PostNo, actually he weighed in at 142. It was originally supposed to be a one-off, and since then, Roach said he wants Manny to stay close to 140 because it's the most effective weight for him.
Cotto @ Jr. gets knocked out easy
Maywether is a dif story but he's been up to around 50-52 for the DLH fight

theres not going to be a problem with weight once the money is right. cotto is under Arum so it looks like a sure thing. Arum wins either way. Plus we'll have to see what else would be in the contract. mandatory rematch for Manny just incase?
manny did look good at 147, but a healthy cotto would be much heavier than that on fight night. so would mosley. roach knows that manny's speed is still there at the higher weight so he'll just be pushing for the lowest catch weight to make the fight as even as he sees fit. a few pounds below the ww limit is a good deal for cotto, but if i were him i'd focus on Clottey and Mosley first.

If Floyd, Cotto, and Shane all turn down Pac...what does he do next?
And yes, it's a ***** move. Pac fought at 147 and won big. Unless he is admitting he only won because Oscar was a dead man.

Marquez 3 would always be open and if there arent anymore takers after that, its not bad for him if he retires at that point. It would be healthier for him too.

However, if Pac had never went up to 147, I wouldn't have an issue. But he did and now he needs to fight those fighters there if he wants to make those fights.
I held Mayweather and everyone else to the same standard. I'm not going to change my tune just because its Manny Pacquiao.
Had he never went there, fine, but he did in fact beat a fighter at that weight.
