   Two pounds is not going to drain Cotto. It's only fair that since Manny is moving up to fight bigger fighters Cotto can move down a couple of pounds to fight the bigger fights. People need to stop bitching and enjoy the fight.

   I see that Cotto fans are already making excuses just in case he loses. Unless someone cheats there are no excuses in boxing. The fighters know exactly what they are getting themselves into once they sign that contract. Stop crying.

   cotto is the bigger man in this bout so thats why roach and pacquiao want it at 145 lbs. just to make it fair for both fighters, besides its still at the welterweight division.

   145 is not a catch weight 143.5 is.
   
   Pacquiao cleaned out the featherweight and jr lighweight divisions. He is a superfeatherweight scheduled to fight a natural welterweight.
   
   Now Cotto fans are afraid that Cotto will weight 1 lb less than what he weight against Clottey.

   Cotto's last fight was 146, now its 145 what's the difference? Cotto was making an issue out of it to get more money, its a business move. If it's not fair, all he has to do is backout, move on and decline.

   for that person that said roach and pacquiao wanted it at 145, you need to get it straight manny's camp wanted 143 but cotto wanted it at 145 manny ignored his camp and accepted 145
   and the in the WBO regulation welterweight is between 142-147 but boxers prefer to weigh in at the max weight
   
   now cotto weigh in at 146 on his last fight so he only needs to lose 1 pound while manny has to gain 5

   actually pacman and cotto are not far away from height, its very close height the difference is the weight, cotto is heavier that pacman and he was 138lbs. when he fought hatton so if they fight in 145 pacman will go higher about 7 lbs.we don't know maybe pacman gain more weight after the fight with hatton but the agreement both fighter will catch at 145 lbs.at thier weigth required.now if we compare the two, they are all great fighters but the question is who will be the smartest fighter on nov.14.both fighter have power but pacman, i think, but because he goes higher weight i think he has more power than cotto who will loss weight.if pacman maintain his speed and power combined that's gonna be a problem for cotto,where as cotto rely on his body punch which pacman can block it with his elbow or keep distance on it.cotto can landed some body punches but not very effective due to, pacman move back if the punches are about to land.maybe if pacman is wobbly then he can land his body punches effectively but pacman is still on his best fight no way he land some punches on the body.
   
   now pacman has a big advantage on this fight because cotto has still fresh scars above his left eye,that if pacman might hit that with the left power punch i am sure that scar is gonna be a big cut again which will give cotto a big problem,that might bleed until the end of the fight.this cut will gonna bother cotto so much,the blood will cover his eye and pacman left hand punch came from nowhere will always land on the spot and might be the cause of the stoppage, and you will be the judge of the fight,that's how i see the fight on nov. 14.

   they are called pound for pound fighters because they have a catch weight agreement, because other fighters are in featherweight class which is not fit to fight the welterweight class,so if two fighters are in different class they can make an ageement to fight each other by catching weight,like for instance two fighter will catch at 145 lbs. on welterweigt division,if they agree each other then they can fight if they will not so no fight,some fighters have advantges and others have disadvantages or vice versa,so, to make it fair fight, catch weight agreement is to be applied.but i always hear from the commentators that pacman is a small fighter but he fought big guys like dela hoya and hatton, but still pacman want to fight because he has advantages even he knew he is small fighter.but for cotto i think still he has a lots of advantages to fight cotto the height is almost even so when they are on 145 lbs more even but we don't know how much weight they gonna be during thier fight on nov. 14.i think it might little difference but this fight is very breath taking fight and of course i'm with pacman because i'm a ballot pinoy.

   In my opinion,obviously Cotto's not man enough to defend his title in a fair fight...He seeks all the physical advantage,pushing the fight to 147 limit...actually,145 is already in his favor...come fight night and it's going to be a fight between a middleweight(Cotto at 160) and a mini superwelterweight(Pacman at 148~149)..
   Cotto's camp still"criticizes"the decision of WBO to make it a title fight even knowing that 145 is indeed a welterweight(141~147)and Arum's stating that He will pay for the sanctioning fee for both fighters....Cotto's demands are already met,so why would he still vacate the title? for what?
   Remember when Oscar and Hopkins fought for the undisputed middleweight championship title?(all the sanctioning bodies approved it for a title bout) it's a "catchweight" at 158lbs..Hopkins being the bigger man,even dropped 4 lbs at 156 lbs to make the fight fair.Watch Youtube:(Bernard Hopkins vs Oscar de la Hoya 1).
   Now,is pacman asking only 2lbs really that much? peace Bros.

   Which do you prefer, catchweight on Pacquiao-Cotto or guessweight on Mayweather-Marquez fight?

   
   Anonymous ( August 8, 2009 at 7:38 AM )

   That also gives me an idea, if WBO made a belt or title on catchweight division, why dont they also make a title for guessweight division?

   My goodness, Miguel Cotto you are damn so slow. Damn soooo slow Manny Pacquiao will hit you 7 times before you can even fire one punch. Its that of a mismatch. Pacquiao has the POWER plus the lightning speed that you can only imagine how fast it is when you actually meet him in the ring. Anyone here who's hullicinating Cotto even if he weighs 200 lbs on a fight night will stand a chance against Pacquiao, lets bet, shall we? Just $500, I'm for PACMAN and you bet for your walking doll Cotto. Email me: Powerfuleft@yahoo.com.

   Cotto's looking strong.
   Pac will be in the fight of his life.
   It might be the fight of the year and a rematch will be called for.

   We are talking of millions of dollars not only for Pacquiao also Cotto.Don't you think a great boxer like Miguel will not consider this fight even he will not fight at 147 but 145?.Crazy to begin with,his face got a deep cut fighting Clottey and the take home (not belittling any fight at all)is moderate.Actually for practical analysis ,in case Pacquiao got him early like Hatton, then in just two rounds he will take a time rest ,then easy collect.Clottey made him fought to the brink,with Manny either precision defeat on early rounds or ODLH submission like ending.

   
   Anonymous ( August 8, 2009 at 6:39 PM )

   Cotto will be 160 and Pacman 148 at fight time, so you people whining about 145 get a life and move on. Cotto will have a very very big size advantage at fight nite.

   well,well as we see theres alot of people leaning towards pacquiao so it makes cotto the underdog
   lets face it all it means to me is that cotto is going to fight harder n smarter but no matter if we like it or not cotto is also a warrior!!! we that follow boxing seen him wobble,shoke,hurt,cut n still finish he's BORICUA n we puertoricans don't quit we r like pitbulls will finish our task no matter the outcome even if it means we have to die we have alot of heart n pride but until then we just have to wait n see i know one thing thers going to be alo of people disapointed (VIVA PUERTO RICO COTTO!!COTTO COTTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

   i see you watch youtube (bloodboxing channel?) and got the "catchweight bitch" nickname. But you're a fool to believe him. Even he agrees that Pac's only catchweight fight will be this cotto fight. The Delahoya fight was a welterweight bout (147lbs) where Oscar only needs to move down 4 lbs (he weigh 151 lbs on his last fight before pac) and pac needs to move up 12 lbs (2 divisions up). Even if we call that a catchweight, that's 2 catchweights. Check how many catchweights fights did hopkins have. Not just him, other fighters has done more that pac. Dumbo.

   its all the same . . . even if he does weigh 145lbs, come fight night, for sure he will be weighing more than 145lbs , got that pacman haters ??? surely, it will be a title fight... enjoy ur belt cotto and cotto fans, pacman will get it come Nov 14, 2009 ..... PACMAN does it again , bye losers!!!

   Cotto needs a good coach. His uncle must be in his side. A game plan must be stable and cotto needs to train like never has done in his live. This will be a hard task for cotto. However the Upper will be the key punch for cotto. Paquiao will not take a hard upper from cotto in the 8 round.

   Cotto can hit but is slow as hell. Cotto will be hit so many times his face will be messed up. Look everyone Cotto comes foward and at times walks back, no movement but power. Power does not have to be a factor as we learn from Ali vs Forman ect...Why are Cotto fans upset about the weight it only two pounds you can take a shit and already loss a pound, his last fight Cotto weighed 146. Also Sugar Ray lenard and other past fighters did the samething this is Pacman first catchweight fools don't be mad that Manny picked Cotto Fools Cotto agred to the fight Cotto is stupid then Cotto doesnt think. Pacman fought way more top fighters then Cotto. Remember Pacman is a born puncher and punchers are born not made as said by Teddy Atlas. Guys Pacman started at Flyweight 106 pounds this guy was a jockey does that amaze you and is power since then traveled up through the weights. Power does not win fights but speed, lateral movement. Pacman is going to win by points but i dont see a ko win.. ------------------At top its common since to pick Pacman for this fight BY THE WAY I AM WHITE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW.

   They will not be at145 lbs on the fight night, Cotto will always be a lot heavier than Pacquiao so if Cotto is still unsure of himself that he can beat Pacquiao why did he signed to fight Pacquiao...SIMPLE, isn't it?

   
   Anonymous ( September 2, 2009 at 6:36 AM )

   It is amazing to see so many people commenting on a sport they have never taken part in. With that said, weight will always be an issue. No Boxer I repeat no boxer walks around at their fight weight. They all have to loose or gain weight for the next fight. So weight should not be an issue. The only part of this fight that truly will make a difference is the trainers. Freddy Roach has already shown more respect for Cotto than any other fighter that has fought Paquiao. He understands that Cotto is a very strong, smart fighter. Miguel Cotto understands that to have succes in this fight he must be committed to training hard and determined to nullify the speed of paquiao, which can be done. Paquiao's foot speed will be a problem in the ring not his hand speed. Just a bit of inside info its now September and Freddy Roach cant get in contact with Paquiao to start training for a fight that Roach says will be the toughest of Paquiao's career. Cotto is already training. The bottom line is two great warrior's will be in the ring in November and someone will win and someone will lose.

   I REMEMBER WHAT MICHAEL MOORER SAID, THE DAY BEFORE THE FIGHT OF PACQUIAO AGAINST RICKY HATTON, HE SAID "PACQUIAO WILL KILL HATTON BECAUSE HE PUNCHED LIKE A HEAVY WEIGHT." NOW ROACH SAID AGAINST PACQUIAO WHEN THEY ARE ON TRAINING IN BAGUIO, "PACQUIAO PUNCHES LIKE A TRUE MIDDLE WEIGHT." COTTO YOU'LL BE IN TROUBLE ONCE YOU ENGAGE THE FIGHTING PLAN OF PACQUIAO, IT WILL BE A THE SAME SCENARIO BETWEEN "YOU AND MARGARITO".
   AS WE OBSERVED PACQUIAO HATTON FIGHT, HATTON ENGAGE WITH THE FIGHTING PLAN OF PACQUIAO, WHAT HAD HAPPEN TO HATTON? I THOUGHT OF IT BEFORE THE FIGHT, THAT IF HATTON FIGHT WITH THE FIGHTING STYLE OF PACQUIAO, HE WILL NOT LAST 1ST TO SECOND ROUND. AND IT PREVAIL.
   
   ON THIS CASE "PACQUIAO AGAINST COTTO" THIS IS PROBABLY THE TOUGHFEST FIGHT OF PACQUIAO, BECAUSE COTTO IS THE YOUNGEST FIGHTER, PRETTY TOUGH AND A STRONG LEFT HOOK,AND IF COTTO WILL STICK TO HIS FIGHT PLAN AND EITHER FIGHT LIKE A COUNTER PUNCHER, THE FIGHT WILL END INTO A DECISSION.
   BUT PACQUAIO STRATEGY AND TECHNIQUE IN BOXING IS HIS BEST ARMOUR, IT IS THE SAME WITH THE GAME OF CHESS, IN ONE MISTAKE YOU LOOSE,
   THAT WOULD PROBABLY COTTO SHOULD DO, IF HE DOESNT WANT TO LOOSE.
   FOR ME, IF IT ENDS IN A DECISSION IT WILL GO TO PACQUIAO....
   REASON: SURVIVAL...
   IF COTTO ENGAGE WITH PACQUIAO.... IT WILL NOT LAST TO MORE THAN SIX ROUNDS. FOR PACQUIAO
   REASON: COTTO WILL BE PUNISHED...

   to all fans of COTTO:
   pacman is letting cotto to hit him so that cotto will not run that was a strategy. on 1st round pac man was trying the punch of cotto and as he expect the punch of cotto cant destroy his defense.
