TEAM Miguel Cotto is making sure there will not be a repeat of his loss to Antonio Margarito, where the latter is suspected to have used illegal handwraps to defeat the Puerto Rican by knockout.
Miguel Cotto Sr, who is part of his son's team, told the media yesterday during his son's public workout at the Pound4Pound Gym in Los Angeles that his team will keep an eye on Pacquiao when the latter tapes his hand for the fight.
?Yeah, we will send someone to keep an eye on them to make sure they do not cheat,? the elder Cotto was quoted by Philboxing.com's Dr. Ed De la Vega as saying.
At the public workout, Cotto arrived on a limosine with his trainer Joe Santiago and a very small entourage, in stark contrast to an army of hangers-on who reside with Team Pacquiao at his apartment in Los Angeles.
?Cotto appears extremely fit contrary to certain published observations in the media. Although he did not reply when asked how much he presently weigh, he appeared to be somewhere close to the fight weigh of 145 lbs. Therefore, Team Pacquiao can forget about getting a million bucks for every pound that Cotto will weigh above 145 lbs when they officially step on the scales a day prior to the fight," Philboxing.com reported.
Meanwhile, Cotto also informed the media that Pacquiao can fight Floyd Mayweather Jr as many times as he wants after he is done with the Filipino icon.
