Floyd is taking Cotto at his weight so the fight nearly evens itself out but I have Floyd as marginal favourite. It will be a terrific technical fight which I am really looking forward to.
I do think the fight is at catch weight 150lb.
Conversely my estimation in Pacquiao has gone down, he tried to force Cotto to fight at a lower weight, which Cotto refused. Well done to him for standing his ground and not going for the money.
