Pretty much. Even most hardcore boxing fans don't remember/know that legendary fighters such as Armstrong, Leonard, Chavez/Whittaker, etc fought at catchweights for titles (in Sugar Ray's case, he won 2 different weight class titles on the same night haha). All they remember is the accomplishments, number of titles, highlights, etc. Same thing will happen with Pacquiao in a few years. Hell, most casual fans don't even know what a CW is... all they know is that the guy with the record 7 divisional titles is going for his 8th.
All the nitpicking is irrelevant.Comment

Students of the game will~ and it will show a clearly who knows what they are talking about versus who is just spewing numbers/recycled stuff. To those that are also informed anywaysComment

Of course that no one will talk about freakin catchweights.
Today is modern thing to fight at catchweights,every big fight is at catchweight.
Pacquiao Cotto,Floyd JMM,Hoya B-Hop and now Burners Paul is fighting Sergio.
Anyway Larryx do you have that link in which you own Burner on radio show how Paul Williams is garbage?Comment
