    De La Hoya ended up coming in at 145 or something... Why can he cope with that, but not a 145 Cotto? weight isn't the issue here... the drain of boiling down is.

    If this turns out to be true then it's because he knows that because Cotto is smaller than ODLH he would find it much easier to make that weight... and therfore wouldn't be as drained.
    Say what you want about Floyd, but he never tried draining a fighter down before.

    Hatton was at 147 before and wanted a shot at the Liner Welterweight Championship and the $$$$$$$$$ a Floyd fight brought

    JMM called out Floyd and wants to be the one to take that 0 off his record

    Floyd fought a healthy full 154 version of Delahoya whilst giving him every advantage, gloves, ring size etc. Why cant Pac fight Mosely or Cotto under those same conditions?
    Hatton was the financial draw here lets be truthful about that one. He may not have been the better fighter but PBF certainly doesn't rake in the PPVs. And, how was floyd Linear Welterweight Champ. Who he buy that from, as he certainly didn't win it, not from Baldomir, Gatti or Sharmba Mitchell thats for sure......

    dunno about that

    you take what they both did in the previous fight before that one. floyd ranked up easily a million in PPV. Hattons wasnt even a PPV event was it?

    In terms of fan activeness then hatton is the most marketable fighter of the last 10-15 years. Where the financial side of things are concerned however the pulling power for that particular contest was mayweather
    one dangerous horrible bloke

    I'll give it that combined they made the money but boxing and vegas hasn't seen a fan following the likes of Hattons for a long time and won't see it again for a long time either....
