It's the commissions job to penalize overweight fighters

[Gutz]

Why would the commission penalize a fighter for weighing under the welter limit?

Contract catch weight...

No because they do not recognize 144 as a weight limit.

There's a lot of ways you can twist that one quote.

But he didn't not make weight(IE; Come in at 148), and it doesn't mention "COTNRACTUAL" agreements. If you agree to fight at 140, and someone comes in at 141 that's different.

You can't fight at 144, someone comes in at 146, and say he missed an entire weight class.

Thus Mayweather still ends up paying his $600,000 fine for breaking a "CONTRACTUAL" agreement.

Contract catch weight...

The contract stipulated that Floyd would pay $300k for each pound above 144 in a welterweight bout.

Are you ******? When a weight is agreed upon they are talking about the weightclass i.e. a welterweight bout. It's not talking about a certain pound like 144 because they do not recognize 144 as a weight. It's recognized anywhere between over 140-147. The link I just showed you tells you what they classify as weight! The NSAC can't penalize someone for something that is not in their rulebook i.e. a 144 weight limit? Are you dense? Typing it bigger isn't going to help your case.

What happened, pull? Out of bull****? On to the next thread?
