    anyone who is sick of catchweights, just don't watch juan diaz-malignaggi, floyd-jmm and cotto-pac and you would feel better.

    good news!!! Look nobody made Cotto take the fight at 145, since he took the fight at 145 and the WW limit is 141-147 then his title shuld be on the line. Cotto just came in 146, is anybody gonna say the Cotto-Clottey fight shouldnt have been for the belt???

    ^ how do you feel about this catchweight madness?

    **and if the Welterweight limit is "141-147" as you say

    how could Henry Armstrong fight for a Welterweight title and weight in at 138?

    I'm glad its for the belt but it shouldn't be because Pacman is not fighting Cotto at the true welterweight weight limit.

    Good news, to those complaining you guys forgot that Leonard/Hagler was at a catchweight too and the belts were on the line?

    I had little doubt that it would not be on the line but i bet he got a couple thousand's extra out of it and probably his fee's paid for him, Cotto is a smart kid. He is going to need that extra money to make his uncle disappear. :lol: J/K.

    Well, that inreases the stakes. Just hope we get a great fight out of this with both fighters bringing their A game.
