Rumors of Pac wanting Cotto at 143 Catchweight

[Gandalf]

It's just wrong and I don't like it.

Cotto struggled like death to make 140 all those years ago and all this time later I am sure it would be just as hard to make 143. The whole thing reeks of opportunism and Manny trying to make the biggest and easiest money possible by draining the WW's and having them fight at a weight which will hinder their performances.

I keep repeating myself, but if this is the only way to make the fight then I really am not all that interested in it. Why can Manny not just allow his opponent those two kg's and allow us to see a fight in which he is truly tested against a fighter who is at his best?

I would rather he stayed at 140 and cleared up rather than keep having this charade anytime a fight is discussed with a WW.
