      LOL!

      Pacquiao is the living specimen. He couldn't make 112 and jumped 2 weight classes and settled at 122. So, you blaming Pac for Oscar's ***** move then?

      Get back to me if you have armed yourself better against your topic...

          The first and last time Pacquiao fought at a catchweight was against Oscar. Pacman was a natural featherweight, fought once at 135 and you don't give him credit for going up 12 more pounds?

          Give me a ****in break....
          Pac hasn't actually fought at a catchweight yet. That fight was at the WW limit of 147 and was considered a normal WW fight. Catchweight = any agreed upon weight outside the seventeen normal divisions.

            My bad then.

            It was a "meet" weight. Since these Cotto fans are all crying foul if the fight gets made at 144-145, then like I said before Benny, and I'm sure you've already read my suggestion here before; the fight will be at 147, same day weigh-in, 3 hours before the fight. No bs catchweight. What say you Cotto fans?

              he doesn't live in an era with multiple governing body's, politics etc. different era my friend.

              1 pound is not going to affect him, stop making excuses.

              not fair for cotto move down 1-2 pounds but its fair for him to outweigh pac by 12-14 pounds. very biased to me.

                cotto struggles with weight because he can't compete at a higher division.

                understandable.

                he ain't that good.

                  lmfao! i would be surprise if cotto lasts 2 rounds. coz Pac would be ready to go right there and then. Pac is so small he can fight right after the 147 weigh in. lol

                      thank you!

                      uncle benny i've been arguing with everybody about this.

                      they think a catchweight is everytime fighters agree to fight at weight higher or lower than their own.

                      to me catchweight is a limit in between weight divisions.

                      if the fight is at 147 , it's a welterweight fight. just because 1 moved up to 147 and the other moved down to 147 doesn't mean it's a catchweight.

                      it just means one moved down to welterweight and the other moved up to welterweight.
