    Instead of Catchweight Demands...

    What about catchweight bonuses? For example, Floyd offer a 3 milli bonus if Canelo comes in at 152 instead of demanding 152 with a 3 milli penalty. If catchweights were done like that I don't think they would have the negative connotation that they do.

    A poster with Mannie in their username, making a thread about catchweights. Irony?

          Maybe, but it was too perfect not to post, It wasn't meant to be a shot at him, just to be funny.

              If you read this, you will see that not only did I already say it wasn't a shot at him, but your point also falls short, it would only be ironic if I hated manny or was some ignorant floyd-stan. Neither is accurate. I am a fan of the sport who regonizes Floyd as the best, if you were judging me by my avatar, nor do i hate manny at all, or did you already know all of this and chose to ignore the truth and post anyway.

                  Actaully was a big fan, I made the name to make light of his accusations, and I thought it sounded cool. I'm latino so (floyd being the exception) I always root for latino fighters and support them. I really like European fighters too though and wish fighters from UK and Ireland and other countries got way more hype than they do, I am always looking for european fights to watch, it's a shame here in the US they push fighters from the US so hard when many of them are awful.

                    Or we could just get rid of catchweights all together.

                    But perhaps your idea isn't so horrible.
