Catchweight of MW vs WW

[pinoyescrima]

How about if Cotto or Floyd fights Pavlik or B Hop at a catch weight, now would that be fair? they would know how Marquez and Manny feels about having to fight guys naturally bigger than they are..........

LOL where would Hopkins come down to? He isn't going lower than 170-168 MAX.

Not sure about Pavlik, he looks a little thick around the middle but that's his body type I doubt he could cut down that much

[S.G.]

Hopkins fights at LHW now mate

and welterweight is already 4 classes above where Floyd started

just an example with B-Hop....

It's the same for Floyd fighting Pavlik at 156 as it is for JMM to fight Floyd at 144. The major difference is that Floyd has been at or above WW in 3 years while JMM fought at LW for the first time in september.

Srl and oscar fought at 156 or 158 for a mw fight so i have no problem with floyd or cotto fighting at 156 for a mw title
