Marvin Hagler to all the guys who challenged him.

I have always loved this quote. If Pacman wants Cotto's title and belts fight him at his best which is 147. A catchweight is a farce, especially if it's for any titles.

I think Team PAC will not force for a title/belt to be at stake... What Team PAC will surely negotiate is the catchweight...

I'm also guessing PAC will be the favorite in the betting against Cotto...

.

No catch weights. Many fans really don't like that catch weight thing. If Pacman can't fight someone at their best, then just don't fight. I sure wonder if Roberto Duran ever had a catch weight clause in his contract against Hearns, Leonard, Hagler? And considering he was about the same height and build as Pacman.

Yes, catch weights are so.....

As sick as i am of discussing catchweights.. I think this is a great fight.

Id be VERY happy if this fight was made.

This pains me to say but I think Manny beats Cotto.He does not have the over all size of a Margarito or Clottey but accuracy and speed in droves.Cotto was showing some of that stationary-squat posture....began punching wider as the rounds went on.... a quick in and out guy could take advantage off.
