DLH which DLH wanted not Pac
Cotto catchweight was 145 (Remember Cotto was 146 against Clottey) Do you think that 1 pound would of really made a difference? Be honest with your self.
Margarito who spent most of his career at 147, catchweight was 150, Marg was far from weigh drained at 165 at fight night...
Stop being a hater.. I like Cotto too but really he just wasnt on Pacs level..
DLH wanted it, so no criticism towards Pac is necessary. However, it still doesn't change the fact that it had been 7 years since the Golden Boy had fought anything south of 150. He was weight-drained and Roach even admitted it.
People on this board who talk about how catchweights don't affect fighters have no understanding of sports whatsoever. Cutting or maintaining weight is an exact science and fighters who are use to certain weight classes have a specific and delicate process when it comes to making weight. You mess with that process by adding a weight cap and it affects the fighter's performance.
Margarito was a career welterweight, so what I just said doesn't apply to him. There were other reasons to criticize that bout; the weight draining of Margarito is not one of them.
By the way, Cotto objected to putting his welterweight title on the line against Manny, but was essentially strongarmed by Arum and company.

He shreds pacquiao record against those who got beaten by pacquiao at higher weight, why don't he try to fight those guys. is it because he already try fighting bigger guys he got his ass whoop, I'm talking about the fight against mayweather who is also so scared of fighting pacquiao.
Nevermind, we all know that he is up for big payday, he is getting old and theres no other fight which can give him a big payday than pacquiao fights.
Everybody wants to be like a sweepstakes winner and they have to do whatever it takes to lure pacquiao. If you guys remember a lot of people so Jealous on margarito for winning the sweepstakes against pacquiao...
Anyway at the end of the day we all know that everybody want a piece of pacquiao for big payday

DLH asked for it..
Cotto, that one pound wouldnt of matter, too top it off his conditioning coach and even himself said they were fine and healthy..
Marg, who even at 154 would of ballooned up to 165 which still would of been a huge disadvantage in size and weight?
Whats your point?
Name one fighter as of recent that has said they feel weight drained as opposed to healthy and strong-you will be hard pressed to find many.
Aren't you getting tired of these type of stipulations and what happened to fair fights?True,I believe Manny would have beat Cotto and Margarito, but why further the advantage to add question marks? It cheapens the win. When a fighter wants to prove they are the best,I just believe it should be done in a way that wont be pathetic.For whatever reasons,Manny's team needed those pounds to come off of Tony,Cotto,etc.It is becoming so commonplace in Manny's string of opponents that his fans have either neglected it or treat it nonchalantly....

Let him suffer more and fight the 140's instead. Hope that whining trick won't work and team pac won't budge. Instead of giving Pac some respect like others did vice versa, hope Pac won't fight him even at 147... haha.

hahha..desperate old man...I bet he never would fight Margarito himself...JMM is only looking for the biggest payday of his entire life..we all know how his face will look like after 12 rd's of eating Manny's gloves..pathetic..at least Margarito stand a chance in theory before the fight but I give JMM no chance whatsoever..Berto is more interesting due to his young age, hungry and all of that, this old guys 30 and up better step back.

As for Clottey,they could have chosen literally ANYONE over that unknown quantity and it would have made more sense, more money, and more of a fight.
At some point,you have to realize that either Manny is Arum's pawn OR that he can choose his opponents.Which one is it?

He does know that he is on Pacs record, right?
Also he just got dominated by Floyd 2 fights ago, so according to him, he is no worthy either
