if there is a loophole in the tax system, people would use it until it is plugged up.
Now, personally, I don't see the 150 fight being unfair, marg is a natural 147 fighter, that is his best weight. his best performances have come at 147 and 150 should be a doodle since he weighed in at 145 against mosley.
What I have a problem with is the 154 belt being on the line at 150, now I accepted the cotto 145 since HE OFFERED it and his last fight, he came in on the scales at 146.
The only ones who can make a stand is the wbc, its up to them to say, "if title fights are made, they are made on the official limit"
they could step in OR they could receive the sanctioning fees from big money fights and line their pockets.
it should have been realized when belts started popping up everywhere that eventually they would lose their meaning all together.
there was a time would fighters would live and die for that belt. now fighters win belts and don't even bother defending them.

Cotto didn't offer it...in fact, he was oppose to it and they forced him to put it on the line.
