    Martinez is merely undeniable too massive. he's 35 so he does not have a exceptional style of time left and he knows of it. it incredibly is a shame he have been given ****** over in that combat against that punk *** Cintron otherwise he could have chanced on repute lots quicker incredibly of coming via it the way he did. At 154, he could harm Pacquiao. At this weight Floyd could be a greater reasonable decision yet i will think of him accusing Sergio of doing steriods for knocking out P.WIll and Dzizniruk "he's 35, the place'd he get all that capacity variety impulsively?" and that variety of nonsense. it can be a exceptional combat nonetheless, i will think of a focused consequence between those 2 in the event that they did combat. against the "new" Cotto decrease than could be exciting interior the 1st few rounds until Sergio's scuffling with style proves to us all that Cotto incredibly hasn't replaced all that lots and kicks is ***.

    If Pacquiao's camp is going to allow Cotto to weigh in at 147lbs, then it title belt shall be placed on the line!

    I dont think the title means as much as some people seem to think regardless to how big the fight itself will be. Regardless I dont feel that any catch weight fight should be for any title unless the title was vacant. When B-hop destroyed Kelly Pavlik did he take Kelly's Middle weight belts.... NO , so why should Pacquiao be any different. Its true there was a much larger gap in weight classes for that fight but the point is 1 cannot fight for a title in a catch weight fight or in a different weight class than the weight class the title is held at. I think this should be a non- title fight it would not change the importance of the fight if it was and it would be scheduled for the same amount of time. I dont think its fair that Manny gets to fight under the welter weight limit and if he wins get a welter weight title.

    Yes.

    Actually theyre allowing Cotto to weigh 147 at the official weigh in, provided that he pays the fine for the 2 extra pounds.
