    145 innit?
    You're right my mistake.
    Ah no worries, I thought I'd got it all wrong for a sec. I think he will struggle a little to get to 145 but not enough to piss up his chances of being able to fight how he wants to fight. Well I hope not anyway.

    Obviously he should look at the 2 outcomes:
    1) Cotto's last fight he weighed in @ 146 come in 1 lb lighter at 145 and fight
    2)gain 1 lb and come in @ 147 and lose money
    seems obvious to me

    I think Cotto has the honor and the balls to fight at 145. I also think the penalty for not making the weight is more for Cotto than Floyd. So if anything, Cotto probably can't afford it as much.
