    to me catchweights are any weight limit in between the established weight classes.

    if the fight is at 147 , i see it as people jumping up or down to a division.
    But every weight falls within a weightclass , its doesnt have to be the highest limit a weightclass has a range , WW is between 140 and 147

      the limit for WW is not between 141-147.

      the limit for WW is 147.

      slight difference.

      a catchweight to me is where the limit is in between a weight class.

      for instance 150. the limit for super welterweight is 154 but the fighters are agreeing to meet at a limit in between the limit for super welterweight.

        the definition of catchweight is: meeting on an agreed weight....NOT weight class....

        one can set a fight at a catchweight within Heavyweight at 205 lbs.....but there is no such thing as fighting WITHIN heavweight as a catchweight

        the fight between oscar and pacman was anywhere within welterweight.....

          see i just consider that an agreement to fight to meet at a weight class.

          now 148 to me would be a catchweight.

          example. mosley's fight with collazo at 147. he was at 154 before that.

          did he move down or did he meet collazo at a catchweight?

            i agree with this. dlh-pac is a welterweight bout. pac moved up to welterweight and dlh moved down to welterweight. making it a WELTERWEIGHT fight.

              WW is anything under 147 and up to 147 , its not 147 on the dot which is what you are insinuating they cant come in over that weight but can be anything they want below it , thats what makes the situation when you have Pac weighing at 142 in a WW fight .

                That's why i won't even read what most of these mofos have to say. I rather read a Tunney post, he may be a racist at times (who isn't these days) but he's more about loving his own than hating on others and u have to respect that. But some of these guys will take the WHOLE day to try and discredit, diminish and lie about a fighter they don't like. That's not only saying you have no life, but you are full of hate too.

                  Thats right , and by the agreement made between them it is defined as catch weight , every weight falls under a division limit somewhere , so by your definition you would never have a catch weight just the division it falls under .

                      i understand that.

                      they agreed to meet at a limit of 147. which is the definition of WW.

                      as long as they're under the limit they're fine.

                      now if they set a limit between 140 and 147 (between divisions) then that to me is a catchweight.

                      catchweight is also just a limit.
