But Cotto agreed to it. As champion he could have declined that catch weight if he really wanted, he prob wasn't bothered by it and thought it was an easy way to make an extra couple £m.
Like i said this is not an anti-pac thing. Cotto agreed to it and in my opinion Pac would have won at 147. It's just that wbo/wba/wbc bodies that allow catchweight title fights. I simply feel the rule should be change when it comes to a title fight. If you cant take the extra 2 pounds risk that come with the belt then you should not earn it.. catch weights dont bother me, titles being won at them do.. no matter who agrees to what..
