No offense man but you can't be serious. At this level of the sport weight is a science. If their was nothing to it, then why ask for it? Armstrong didn't along with a litany of other fighters throughout history.
You want to call yourself p4p...then do it. Don't dictate to the 147 pound champion that he must make 145 in order to defend his own title. Thats insane and has zero to do with p4p.
Do you think Cotto would have won if the fight had been at 147 instead of 145?
I guess we will never know the answer to that question. Fact of the matter is he demanded that the 147 champion not make 147 and he was the challenger. Odd that he would then fight Clottey, the biggest welter in the division with no weight demands.
