miles do you know cotto wants the fight too? are you guys forgetting that two fighters are agreeing to a catchweight? Yes pac is at 140 and cotto is at 147, why do you think a catchweight is being negotiated

If cotto didnt want the fight i assure you pac would rather stay at 140, same goes with mosley and floyd. Pac is risking to fight above 140 for the big name tough fighters, and he shouldn't be allowed to negotiate a catchweight? Like i said if these bigger fighters didnt want to fight pac, pac wouldn't go above 140.

I thought you guys aren't crediting pacs win over dela hoya at 147, so why do some of you raise your standard of pac. fighting cotto or mosley at 147 is fair? Seriously are you guys forgetting how hard you laughed at anybody that mentioned pac possibly fighting anybody above 140, now the bar has been raise and pac shouldnt have a catchweight above 140 cause he'll clearly have the advantage over any welterweight
