    In 1983, I believe Marvin Hagler and Roberto Duran had a "gentleman's agreement" that neither would weigh no more than 157 pounds for their Middleweight Title fight. It was Hagler's first big payday. So he agreed. Hagler weighed 157. Duran 156. Hagler won.

    In 1988, Sugar Ray Leonard demanded WBC Light Heavyweight champ Donnie Lalonde make the super middleweight limit of 168 so Leonard could win both the WBC Super Middle/Light Heavyweight titles in one night. Lalonde accepted, dropped Leonard, but faded and was brutally KOed.

    In 1989, WBC Super Middleweight Champ Sugar Ray Leonard and WBC Middleweight Champ Roberto Duran agreed to fight at a catchweight of 162 pounds for Leonard's Super Middleweight title. Neither guy even ended up weighing more than 160. Leonard won.

    In 1992, Meldrick Taylor demanded a catchweight of 151.5 pounds when he challenged Terry Norris for the Super Welter title. Norris accepted and knocked him out anyway.

    So, in modern times, Leonard and Duran kind of started it with help from HBO and Seth Abraham, the head of sports at HBO at the time, who liked to make fights with champs from different divisions.

    Catch weights have gone as long as boxing itself.

    Sir I'm going to have to ask you to put down the Reason, Logic, and Historical Facts. 22JM does not respond well to such things and will fall into a frothing rage of misspellings and poor grammar to try and dance around the fact that he's actually very dumb.

    Catchweights’ history in boxing is way larger than 22JM’s IQ level or boxing knowledge.

    On a side note, Pacquaio was already a first ballot HOFer and a certified ATG when he became full blown diva and started with all the catchweight garbage, I can say the same about Floyd Mayweather.Canelo however was pulling those stunts when he was yet a prospect. People talk about how little meaning the WBC jr MW belt that Pac won held, and they’re right. But It held way more meaning bir when Canelo said first won the same title at a similar catchweight against an opponent who’d never fought at 154 before or after.

    Only the real ones recognize this truth, everyone else are emotional fanboys.

    @JOKER is a damn joke. He's either very stupid or is very very shameless.

    He likes to accuse and criticize fighters for the very same thing is God Pacquiao has done, just typical of a woman. That's why myself and a few others suspect he's really a woman. He has displayed many feminine tendencies on this forum.

    His first post here is a perfect example. He explains that 144 was requested by Marquez, but fails to mention that 155 was requested by Khan and Cotto, and 152 by Mayweather.

    He also fails to mention that Pacquiao fought above the weight limit against Todd Makelim, and Boonsa Sangsurat.

    He also fails to mention that he dragged an aging, shot Morales back down to 130 from 135. He fails to mention DLH had not made 147 in almost a decade.

    He fails to mention that initially they would only fight Mosley at 142 when Mosely was still a threat.

    And he acts like draining Cotto, Algieri, Margarito is the same as Canelo fighting three Non-title fights against Lara, Angulo, and Kirkland.

    Joker is such an idiot for Pacquiao is funny. His name suits him well. Lol

    The real moron is you though, for posting a list with only one catchweight Canelo demanded, and that was Chavez jr..

    Khan, Cotto, Mayweather all demanded the weight the fight was held at.

    Lara, Angulo, Kirkland were 1 lb over JrMW, a very common thing for non title fights, which you would know if your ass wasn't so far up Pacquiao's ass.
