They may aswell have a new f ucking weight in boxing now with all of these 150 catchweight title fights that are happenin lately, discrace.
Call the Junior Canelo division. Alvarez invented it. Five fights in a row now. Perfect for those phoney champ wannabes who want to drain bigger 154 lbers or drag up smaller 140-147 lbers.
If catchweight fights for world titles were good enough for... SUGAR RAY LEONARD PERNELL WHITAKER JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ BERNARD HOPKINS OSCAR DE LA HOYA ...then I'm damn sure they are good enough for Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito. :deal
I blame Hopkins for the rash of recent ones. Before that, they were rare, and therefore slightly more acceptable, if not ideal. Why is that difficult for people to understand?
Would of been a lot of **** talking during the SRL title fight if there were forums like this back then. How the **** does someone fight a light heavy champ, for his light heavy belt at super middle weight, for a vacant belt. Not to mention his first fight at super middle, and after 1 year of inactivity. SRL should be a 4 weight champ at best. His super middle and LHW titles are trash. It's like pacquiao or mayweather asking Martinez to fight at 154, for his middle weight title, and making it for the LMW title at the same time. They would get trashed all over the web.
Some of the best fights became possible because of catch weights. Be thankful. BTW, theres an option of switching the channel of your tv..
