I keep hearing that Pac has had multiple catch weight fights (fights outside the standard weight divisions). So far I can only think of one - Cotto. Oscar was at 147 so that doesn't count and I can't think of any others. I didn't think that one would be a big deal since it has happened many times in the past like the JCC - Meldrick Taylor fight. So if anyone can enlighten me to what other fights Pac has had at a catchweight.

It was actually against Whitaker not Taylor.

But, anybody who says that Manny is the catch-weight king or catch-weight champ, or even saying Mannyweight are a bunch of idiots. Who are just casual or just started following the sport.

I saw someone post that Floyd thinks he is the commision by asking for extra tests.

Then another guy replied, well Pac thinks he is for asking for catchweights.

I was like lol. Manny didn't invent the damn catch weight. It has happened many times before him

There are none. In boxing if you do something once you get the label forever.

You quit once, you're a quitter. You KO someone to the body once and you're a brutal body punching KO artist. You get KO'd once you have a glass chin. You have one catch-weight fight and you're a catch-weight king. That's how it works apparently.

Damn, not sure why I wrote Taylor.

Unfortunately for most, you're only as good as your last fight.

So how do you feel about JCC who made sweat pea come down. How about SRL who made 2 bigger opponents come down?
