Sugar Ray Leonard fought Danny Lalonde effectively at catchweight, when Lalonde had to boil down to 168, and yet his Light Heavyweight title was on the line.
Hopkins-Pavlik and Hopkins-Wright were at catchweight, and most people think Hopkins will be classed as an ATG.
Felix Trinidad-Roy Jones, Jr. was at catchweight, and most people think Jones will be classed as an ATG.
But most ATGs in the past used to stay in their own weight class and clean them out. The sport wasn't so driven by money in the past as it is now, and fighters used to fight in their own division, rather than trying to get fights with "name" fighters in other nearby divisions.
Hagler never fought outside Middleweight, for example. Even SRR spent years exclusively at Welterweight, then moved up to Middleweight because he could no longer make the Welterweight limit - he didn't move up simply in order to make a big fight. He did have one fight at Light Heavyweight before returning to Middleweight, but that was an exception to the rule in those days, fighters very rarely did that. Even Duran moved up when he could no longer make weight easily, he didn't move up just in order to get a big fight. Henry Armstrong did fight above his natural weight class because he could beat bigger men than himself, but he really was an exception to the rule.
For most of his career, Pac has been the same - he's moved up because he could no longer make the lighter weights. It's only recently that he's started looking for mega-fights with big name fighters above his natural weight limit. But he's not the first ATG to do it.
And the modern tendency to make fights with big names from neighbouring weight classes is a reflection on the way boxing has changed; and if the ATGs of the past had been boxing today, whose to say they'd have been any more likely to resist the commercial temptations of the modern sport than the boxers of today are?
but the catchweight for all these fight were fair not to the point were one fighter would be so weight drain that the fighter will lose speed power and energy they still could do somthing in the ring unlike what Pac wants.you know when a fighter is affected by going down in weight not to be confuse by a fighter that just doesnt have in him becaues of ring years like TrinidadLast edited by solo20; 05-20-2009, 05:35 PM.Comment

Pacman is becoming the master of ***** moves. The dude wants to go up in weight to fight the big boys but the big boys need to weight drained their bodys for him to fight them. I find pathetic that Pacquiao and his camp are trying to manipulate Cotto to weight drained his body for fight just to have advantege.
Cotto became a 147 fighter years ago and now Manny wants full blown welterweight to fight him at a weight that can do damege to his body? **** Manny and his demands. Cotto still has other options like Mosley and if Floyd finds his balls a Cotto vs Mayweather fight.Comment
