    It's only a catchweight fight if Flores wanted it. He could've come in at 200lbs if he wanted.

    This is not a catch weight fight :patsch

    A catch weight fight is when 2 fighters agree to a weight that is NOT within a standard weight range :deal

    Just like Pac man 144 and Marg 150 :deal...JW V W :D

    IE: Different divisions :hey

    It is a catchweight fight. You'd have to be an idiot not to see that. Incentive? That's just a spin. Flores would have lost money if he weighed in at the cruiser limit. Think about that. Green wanted Flores to lose as much weight as possible while he put on as much weight as possible.

    Where's the big deal in that though? He lost some weight for some bucks. He didn't have to... it was his choice.

    i thought you would see through this.Danny Green is a fraud look at his history.gets beaten by Mundine says he has no excuses on the night,better man won on the night takes it back when he retires.which he said was final never see me come back epiphany,wants to be fit enough to deal with Chlopes boyfriends,comes back calls out MW Mundine.beats RJJ proclaims Mundine is an irrelevant pissant who he doesnt need anymore proceeds to call him out for a CW bout on Anzac day the following February.
    Flores didnt choose to weigh in light it was never going to be CW Dannys a con artist.

    You'll notice I rarely post on Green or Mundine threads cos I couldn't really care less to be honest. His lowest weight prior to this was 198.5 lbs. It's his biggest fight, so he was going to be his lightest anyway.

    He would've dried out a little, something I'm guessing he doesn't normally have to do, for the sake of a few bucks. That's on him.

    I just don't really see it as a big deal to be honest and that's the bottom line...

    Cruiserweight = 175.1lbs to 200lbs

    Any weight between those 2 weights is Cruiserweight.

    It's a big spread, 24.9lbs, considering the SMW and LHW limits are only 7 pounds apart.

    If Green had said Flores had to come in at 180 or 185, then you guys might have a case to argue, but 195lbs is perfectly acceptable as a Cruiserweight.

    if flores thought he was such a good fighter, then he'd think he'd win and make some good dollars in his next fight after beating green.

    he mustn't think he is gunna win, lol.
