Bottom line is that exact moment manny fought him was the most vulnerable Cotto has ever been, after the loss and a fall out with his uncle and the money etc, he foolishly did everything wrong in that fight from agreeing to terms to implementing a game plan.
The weight is Cotto's fault for agreeing to or allowing others to talk him into it, Manny could have beat him that night without the catchweight but Roach knew that would be a huge factor which is why it was insisted on as a make or break point for that particular fight.
Manny whooped his ass, but he tilted the scales in his favor when he didn't need to which is why it looks somewhat bad.
