    End tread here. Nothing left to debate. Irrefutable fact.

      Mayweather because of several reasons:

      He did the catchweight first, when he called out lightweight Juan Manuel Marquez after piggy backing and leading people on to think this fight was a lead up to Pacquiao vs. Mayweather, and he failed to make the contracted weight.

      Mayweather blasted Catchweights saying they are for punks not realizing that he had a catchweight before Pacman and failed to make weight, yet he still insisted that Cotto was undefeated and claimed he only wants guys coming in at their best weight and shape, than goes on to drain Canelo to 152 pounds but first wanted the fight at 147 which his father agreed to as well, and than said 150, but Canelo wanted the fight bad so he said okay 152.

      Pacquiao's catchweights were to make it an even playing field. Margarito said he was drained at 147 and had to lose a lot of weight when he fought Mosley, if you look at it Pacman actually did him a favor and fought him at 150, the belt was never going to be put up, but WBC added that fight for a title, so get mad at WBC not Manny for that belt.

      The Pacquiao Cotto fight, Cotto agreed to the catchweight and clearly had no problems because he looked it much better condition than he did in the Mayweather fight, he was still lighter on his feet and throwing cleaner combos, he just had no real trainer at the time to help develop a strategy. And Pacquiao is a stylistic nightmare for him.

          Floyd's only because its hypocritical. I'd have no problem If he didnt run his mouth bad mouthing PAC. It's nothing wrong with asking for a Catchweight against guys much heavier than you but don't talk **** about another man doing it then turn around and do the same ****. Luckily we have true champs in broner and my man swift who fight guys where they're comfortable. Them boys the best p4p fighters today no doubt, no catchweights coming from their direction.

            Both of them are lame as hell for asking for catch weights in title fights. One fighter has done that more than the other. But shame on them both. Neither needs them.

              get your facts right jmm called Floyd out second of all jmm probably weighed in fight night about the same as Floyd did with Floyd only weighing bout 150 fight night and what makes cotto weight drain against pac so wonderful u dumbass haha cotto was in way better shape when he fought Floyd and yeah the only real catch weight I know of from Floyd is this canelo fight which two lbs should be that bad I can loose to lbs myself easy without working out hard so that's bs u talking when this guy gone come in 170lbs plus fight night every fight pac man had at catch weight was to pacs full advantage and did you see what shane did to margarita think what Floyd would have done to him made him look like a fool like cotto made him look the second fight but worse. pac biggest catch weight KING my opinion nothing you can say will change the facts hating ass if you love pac so much go live in the phillipean I rep USA over here every day all day

                  Most of the votes picking Manny are hypocrite Flowmos and their alts. So they don't count should have made votes public so you can see the alts in red.

                  floys Catchweights are worse just because he went hard at Pacman and his fans wouldn't stop ever since Pac whooped Cotto, they had to use catchweight to discredit Pacman whooping a guy Floyd ducked in his prime.

                  Also him missing weight after JMM fought him at a catchweight was lowest of the low. missing weight is a big sin in Boxing, the majority of fighters who have failed weight have been lambasted hard by fans, for some reason Floyd never really got that heat for it from his fans. They said Marquez should be happy with the extra money to justify it.
