Cotto at 144. Is that a true catchweight?

Miguel Cotto Willing To Face Pacquiao at 144-Pounds - Boxing News

Let's assume Roach feels Manny isn't big enough to fight the big guys at 147. The question I have is rather than fight Mosely or Cotto at catchweights, would you prefer Manny fight Juan Diaz or Nate Campbell or other fighters at 135-140? Obviously, if Juan Manual Marquez wins, it is logical that he should be the next fight. But, that ain't happening.
