    Accept the catchweight or GGG will be on the outside looking in. Nobody said life is fair. Lose the 4 pounds.

    Do you have any clue what that means? GGG did not even make the 160 limit vs Wade.:deal

    You can be 155 if you like. Your opponent is free to go as far as 160. That's what you fail to understand.

    Yeah Canelo should come in at 155, since it gives him an advantage

    How am I the one who fails to understand when I just finished explaining to you all that the limits are 155 to 160.

    You fail to understand the simple concept that if fighter A is 155lbs and fighter B is 160lbs it's a middleweight bout. 155-160 doesn't mean the fighters have to be on the same exact weight.

    I would have had no issue if El Pollo had dropped the belt after beating Cotto.

    He's basically stolen the lineal MW title and is hiding with it at his house. Absolute DISGRACE

    Catchweights are born so champs from different weight classes can fight. They aren't born so same division champs can drain their mandatory challengers. :lol:

    How is GGG getting drained when according to him, Canelo and him are the same weight? Would'nt draining to 155 drain Canelo as much.?

    Age difference, you cant drop weight in your 30's the same you can in your 20s.
