    :lol: U mad kid? Do I need to dumb it down for you? I just want to alleviate your frustrations for not being able to debate with me. Your level is basic....It's easy for me to go there... but it's next to impossible for you to leap up to my level. I'm only trying to help.:D

    I don't know ****?:rofl You're ****in silly.

    "Facing him was the 29-year-old Whitaker, with a record of 32-l with 15 KOs, the one loss the product of a dubious bit of ringside sleight of hand. He was the stylistic antithesis of Chávez—a southpaw, clever and quick-footed, with a bobbing, crouching, mobile style that made him an elusive target. Whitaker has also held five titles in three weight classes (he retained his WBC welterweight crown as dubious consolation for this draw), and his 12-round decision over Buddy McGirt on March 6 set up the match with Chávez.

    , but there was a good deal more at stake. "This is for the best fighter, pound for pound," said Whitaker, a U.S. Olympic gold medal winner in 1984. "We may be fighting for my title, but that's not what everyone is talking about. This is like going for the gold again."

    obviously it depends on the situation...if both fighters can make the weight comfortably and it's not a title fight then catchweight fights are fine

    but not when the situation favors one party.

    I know that.

    My point is 145 title fight was good enough for Whitaker and Chavez, 2 boxing legends, it's good enough for Pacquiao and Cotto.

    For the two catch weight fights PAC had Marg and Cotto were fine and NOT drained for their fights. It's only an excuse to ease the pain of losing by fans. Cotto said his weight was fine...that he wasn't drained...that 145 was NO problem. Marg had almost ALL his fights at 147 before the PAC fight and going up to 151 to fight a guy he out weighs by over 20 pounds on any given day isn't really a disadvantage for Tony.

    When is fighting a bigger man EVER in favor of the smaller man?
