    Well....if you want to really break this situation down. ANY smaller man going up in weight to face a naturally BIGGER man doesn't at all benefit the smaller guy either.:lol: So the catch weight thing is a way for two guys in different weight classes to meet on an "even" playing field. Simple, logically and in practice within boxing for years.

    You are coming at this on a very ONE SIDED perspective. How are we to knock the SMALLER man going up in weight taking the risk then questioning who is the one at a disadvantage?:huh And a catch weight doesn't or shouldn't handicap fighters as long as the weight is WITHIN the division limit and within reason.

    :rofl PAC "sucks"?:lol: Really? Floyd must be some garbage if Manny "sucks". Your definition for "sucks" must be something completely different in your reality. And I guess "real" comp doesn't include Floyd give PAC wanted to face that cream puff.:rofl

    Damn.....PAC being a coward is a few levels ABOVE Floyd then considering how this whole thing has played out. So I guess Floyd's "lable" would have to be a "vagina":roll:

    We are sick of the so-called best fighter in the world fighting catchweight fights, and then you *******s drooling over his wins over weakened fighters.

    Marg at 154 is sick b/c it's a catch weight?:lol: Ok....I'm failing to see your logic but oh well. Marg is a WW...and has only one fight at 154. This being his second.

    In Boxing there should never be a catch weigh in any divisions ..POINT BLANK.


    otherwise everything is left in the air and Arum will control everything.,,,,keep ARum in the game and boxing will never be the same.!!!!

    I think it was purely business. Cotto was also promoted by Arum and ws selling better than Mosley aside from the fact that he had a win over Mosley.
