PACQUIAO-COTTO WEIGH IN



Las Vegas - Manny 'Pacman' Pacquiao and Miguel 'Anghel' Cotto weigh in for their WBO world title at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada.

The fight which is labeled 'Firepower' is being fought at the catch weight of 145 pounds which is what the WBO Champ Miguel Cotto exactly weighed, while the Challenger Manny Pacquiao weighed in at 144 pounds.

Pacquiao will be trying to capture his 7th world title in as many divisions and what amazes boxing experts is he hasn't show any signs of losing power as he fights heavier opponents.

On the podium, both Pacquiao and Cotto said thanks for their fans but did not engage each other, however there were words exchanged between Freddie Roach and Joe Santiago, Cotto's trainer who Roach has labeled as inexperienced.
