I been trying hard but can not think of another fighter who invented his own weight

So you admit Mayweather was full of shit when he accused Pac on being on PENs and was just scared of him for 5 years. Good to know. Manny was the one who refused a 14 day cutt off and walked away from negotiations in 2010...stop trying to re write history...even Roach admits this

It's in the same proof pile that had you believing Pac was on PEDs So you have no proof?

People keep saying **** like this, but look around. Boxing is f#cking insane. Everyone is out for themselves. There is lil structure. There is no unifying body making decisions. Its a mfing circus. The reality is love or hate Canelo he's just following the natural progression of the guys before him who were bigger then the sport like Floyd & Manny to Oscar & beginning for me with Ray Leonard & you older cats might can go back further than Sugar Ray idk. Sugar Ray fought for the Light Heavyweight title at a 168lb catchweight 28 years ago & he defended the Super Middleweight title he won vs Donny Lalonde at a catchweight of 164lbs vs Roberto Duran & Tommy Hearns. Lets not act like Canelo invented anything really. Although I will say him making his home at 155 did put his own stank on the catchweighting. Just because everybody do it doesn't means its right. Catch weights are as wrong as two boys kissing in Church!

Chavez Jr has a floating weight class. It's odd that Alvarez stays 1lbs over JMW. I think he's worried about having to fight Demetrius Andrade or Jermell Charlo.

164lbs? :lol1: 152 lol... not talking about a catchweight fight that could have happened... learn how to interpret information. unless you are saying that every fighter who ever fought at catchweight has made their own division for that one fight. GGG is probably one of the few active elite fighters who never fought at a catchweight

You're a blind ass sheep if you don't think Fraud had the NSAC in his back pocket. All those slaps on the wrists for the illegal shit that was happening in his house and gym. You're a dumbass. post proof please

There are obviously a lot of fighters that have used catchweights, but I can't think of another one that made a catchweight their weight class like Alvarez is. This is f*cking ridiculous and completely indefensible.

Only way to recover from this, is GGG in September.

Floyd Mayweater was fighting ijits at 152, otherwise the Irish prince wuda knocked him out

Angulo, Lara and Kirkland were non-title fights which are often contested at a pound above the division. 155 was Cotto's preferred weight. Khan is the first time he elected to fight for a title at that weight, but according to him it was because Khan wanted a shot at the title, though Khan claimed differently.

It's very symptomatic for the current state of affairs, really. CW's are popular at elite level. It's more a negotiating (financial) tool than anything else and the fans suffer from this, let alone the fact that the top fighters only fight 1-2 times a year during their prime. Somebody needs to revolutionize the sport and implement a change of sorts so that we get the fights the sport needs.

Catchweight was supposed to be a means to get two fighters who werent the same weight to fight at a weight that put them on equal ground. It was supposed to create fights the public wouldn't otherwise be able to see. Canelo has completely corrupted something that was supposed to increase the likelihood of dream fights happening and instead has used it as an excuse to avoid fighting anyone his own size. I cant think of any other fighter who has done what Canelo is doing.

This is just sickening. Not only are these 155 lb fights idiotic, but what's even worse is the media letting it go like nothing. This is why this sport is a joke compared to other major and minor sports in the world. How is this been given a pass for so long. I can count Lara, Angulo, maybe Kirkland and now Khan. I think his fight with Cotto was 1 lb above 155 so that's that. But goodness.. When will this be frowned upon by the media or people that can bring this to the forefront

It's never happened and to be honest it's a very sad state of affairs.

Never happened. On a similar note, can anyone think of another fighter that's fallen from grace so hard so quick, without getting busted for loaded gloves etc? From born ready warrior to feeble joke in 6 months!

him not coming in at weight shows how great his skills are..he didnt put a limit on the other fighter..THATS THE ENTIRE DAMN POINT Floyd realized his best weight for the fight and stuck with it. Can'tNelo csn do the same thing to GGG. Fight him at 160 but come in at 155 if he wants but his n utt huggers will not se this

I respect canelo revolutionizing the sports. others tried but didnt have the pull to do it. You're not a fan of boxing.

He probably is lol But GGG try to pull a stunt on Ward, so like i said they all do it, but yall pick n choose who yall want to hate on, GGG will fight certain fighters at certain weights n catchweights why???? Cause hes a beeootch also according to you lol, he wants to also make big money U just wana see Nelo get sparked homie, they hate is strong Yeah I hate Can'tNelo for the beeotch he has become. He became this fawking diva

Lol @ the clowns in here justifying this bs by throwing Floyd's and Manny's names in here. They've got nothing on creating your own ****ing division.

Yup a ROIDED up to the gills pimple chested smaller guy...you're welcome :) So many pimples that needed popping!!
