    As I always said, fights were agreed close to a weight limit but are NOT catch weight fights

    this has always been normal in boxing


    Corrales Clottey was fought at 149 it was a WELTERWEIGHT FIGHT

    R Jones v Virgil both over 175 in a LT HW FITE

    SSR v Lamotta 149 v161 MIDDLEWEIGHT FIGHT

    tons more examples that simply are not labeled as catchweight this has always been entirley normal in pro boxing:deal

    and then on the floyd undecard his very own fighter fought a tough fight at LIGHT WELTERWEIGHT

    both hit the scales over 140

    what u gotta say ?

    normal process in boxing since forever:deal

    my point is that the listed fights were NOT catchweight fights

    this happens all around the world all the time

    Im not "defending" Pac ,Mayweather, Oscar, BHOP, JONES or anyone else


    there is nothing to defend

    this is normal activity
