My Question is: Why doesnt Cotto get criticized for fighting a Super Featherweight? Why are people bashing Mayweather for fighting a guy the same size that Cotto is fighting? The fact is that Pac has only 1 more fight above Super Featherweight than Marquez. Also Miguel Cotto has fought 8 times above 140lbs (All WW's) & Mayweather has only fought 5 times above 140lbs.........Mayweather only had 3 fights @140lbs and Miguel Cotto had spent his entire career @140lbs before moving up to 147lbs.
I am not opposed to either fight. I love Mega Fights and I am a fan of all 4 fighters, but I see too much criticism towards Mayweather, when Miguel Cotto is doing the same thing....
The reality is both of these fights are catchweight fights........

So why is Mayweather getting criticized for something Marquez and his team want to do?....They say they can make the weight and they are going to knock him out........
If anyone else is knocking it that's on them.

didnt floyd fight oscar at 154? floyd is also taller than cotto hes 5'9 i think. plus hes the selfproclaimed g.o.a.t. i personally think the mayweather marquez fight will be good so i wont complain. but in cottos defense hes been fighting boxers larger than him and the best in his division hes entitled to this one. floyd wont fight the best in their prime so hes open to more critics.
