    As long as the catchweight is between 174 and 174.5 pounds.

    145 – Cotto
    144 – Algieri
    144 – JMM (by Marquez's demand)
    150 – Margarito (17 pound weight advantage)

    Difference between Pac's catchweights is that he's a former FLYWEIGHT and gave up a size advantage to everyone he's faced in the last 12 years.

    Pac didn't create his own weight division like Clenelo did.

    LOL Canelo didn't create his own weight division. Smaller fighters dragged him down to lower catchweights to give themselves an advantage. The difference between those with Pac and Canelo Bivol is that Canelo and Bivol are very similar in weight.

    What do you mean? Clenelo went through a string of fights that were contested at 155 — known as CaneloWeight.

    The catchweight isn't the problem here, the problem is the timeframe, if they don't reschedule the fight then Canelo won't get any credit for it and that's good , wanna be the A-side so enjoy the disrespect .

    They were non-title fights because he lost his title to Mayweather. There was no need to fight at 154-lb if a title isn't on the line. When it came to fighting Cotto and Khan, they would only fight him at 155.

    So he created his own weight division of 155.

    No, he just fought at that weight repeatedly during that time. 155 never became its own weight class.

    Canelo is a former super lightweight fighting in his 6th weight class, not all that different than Pac in his 7th and 8th.

    Not really. It's about the titles. Pac could have been a 9 or 10 division champ.

    I think we're glossing of the idea of Canelo fighting at Light Heavyweight again like it's no big deal for Canelo. Canelo was fighting at Middleweight not too long ago. Asking him to move up two full weight classes to Light Heavyweight is a big ask. He's already fighting at a weight class above where most people thought he would when he fought GGG at MW. The fact that he moved up to 175 and KO'd Kovalev is extraordinary. It really was like a once in a life time achievement. You can't expect him to do something like that again and again especially on short notice.

    Dude... CANELO already FOUGHT AT 175 ffs....and beat who you all said was the #1 LtHW. No one is asking to go anywhere he wasn't already a belt holder.

    Moving up in weight to grab a belt off a shot champ, and to dump it, is a title hopping cherry pick.

    There's absolutely nothing going up there is there? You are no doubt a part of Canelo's team... There's no way fanboys are this stupid

    He's a cherry picker through and through, he'll fight Beterbiev when he's 38 or something and sheep will still act like he's the truth.
