    Which one is the real catchweight Pac vs Oscar or Floyd vs JMM?

    *****s keep saying Pac fight with Oscar was also a catchweight.
    Pac and Oscar agreed to fight at 147. Both made weights
    Floyd and JMM agreed to fight at 144. Floyd did not attempt to makes weight at all and just paid JMM to keep his mouth shut. Discuss!

        Neither of them turned out to be catchweights.

            Oscar was planning to go to 147 before he even faced Pac. I think it was a year before he even faced Pac that he said he was going down to WW. And, he was in the cover of the ring and it was titles svelter welter or something like that. He fought Forbes at a catchweight of 150 just cuz he was making the transition to go to 147.

            Floyd-JMM was at a catchweight of 144 and Floyd had to pay 300k for every pound over. It was a catchweight fight

              to be fair, neither fighter was able to make the catch weight, they were both off by 2 pounds. JMM agreed to it, so it was alright IMHO.

                for the 1,233,234,582,455th time. 147 was the weight oscar chose, it wasn't manny's strategy to weight drain him, it was delahoya's camps fault that he was drained, also in the realm of "catchweights" 147 is the welterweight limit, so not so much a catchweight in my opinion as a Fight at welterweight.

                Floyd and JMM agreed to fight at 144 which is less than the WW limit, but above the LWW limit, so i say thats a catchweight, same with Cotto vs Manny.

                Last time i'm posting on the subject.

                  Anytime you have a 135 Pounder a 154 Pounder meet at 147 Its a catch weight.

                    147 has a long and storied history in boxing.

                    144 has one fight in recent times, maybe, ever. And even then, both combatants didn't even come in at the contracted weight.
