Cotto-Alvarez weight set at 155; likely date Nov. 7 or Nov. 21

Oh I know I'm the 160lb champ, but I'd rather defend my belt at 155lbs.

Oh! And I can't be bothered to fight 12 rounds, so how about we make it a 9 round fight.

Didn't Ray Leonard practically invent the 168 division by fighting the light heavyweight champion at that limit?

Considering he wasn't the champion, that's a bit worse isn't it?

Yeah and he also demanded a championship match be 12 rounds instead of 15.

Spoiled fucks. Boxing has a history of bending over backwards for it's moneymakers.
