Pacquiao-Cotto update!
By Nick Giongco, FightNews.com, Sun, 19 Jul 2009
Reports from Team Pacquiao say that Canadian advisor Mike Koncz is on his way to the US to relay a message to Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum that Manny Pacquiao has agreed to face Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico on Nov. 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The fight will be at 145 lbs.

Funny thing is they might have as well taken the fight to 147 lb limit, Miguel made 146 the last time, 1 lb will not make any difference here
Manny will be outweighed by atleast 10 pounds come fight night.

If PAC wins, hopefully there is no excuses.

there will be because cotto weighed 1 pound less than his last fight, that would make him severly drain

It would have been smarter to take it at 147 so nobody could complain. Pac still beats him there IMO

Is that like a new modern interpretation of carrier pigeon, maybe they could have put a message in a bottle. ha..... Surely they would just pick up the phone these days..... I say they're fightin when they are actaully in the ring.... I'm not 100% that they actually want a Cotto fight, but i guess we'll see....

Damn! at fight night Pacquiao will only weigh 148-149 lbs. That's the highest weight Pacquiao can make. While Cotto can go up in weigh at fight night at 160 -170lbs. That's 10 to 20 lbs different.

Cotto have the advantage at weight

and

Pacquiao have the advantage on speed

this fight will be huge i cant wait for it to happen

dunno who i will be rooting for maybe pacman cos of giving away so much weight

Cool; can't wait for this one. Should be a helluva' fight; but I'm going with Pac to win.

Lol. I'd still take Wlad in 12.

Pac could always fight Pavlik He's in a lonely division.

I'd rather it be at 147 but this is fine. Never once bought into the 143 thing.

I was complaining; but fukk it if Cotto isn't bothered with it then who am I to complain? I just want to see it. This board will be fun in the buildup

Where's Bilbo to give his self-aggrandizing speech
