Mayweather requests catchweight for Maidana, to defend both 147-154 title belts

I think people are getting too up & arms about this. Not too many people nowdays get belts at 2 weight classes at the same time. If he had beat Maidana easily then he would probably be fighting a 154 pound fighter right now and wouldnt have to worry about anything but since it was close and he's having a rematch, he has to do this to keep the 154 pound title. People make it sound like he's using the title but he's not. Its not like he's just a 154 champ and thats it.
The only way to keep both belts is to go back & forth each fight. He's not doing that because he's having a rematch so basically he's just using this for an extension. The fight will still be at 147 but with the 154 title also on the line. Thats all this means. Nothing slick in regards to Maidana except for the fact that if he wins then he gets titles at 2 weights. It wont be above 147 though but the 154 title will still be on the line. Nothing more, nothing lessComment

If Floyd were to let maidana weigh over the 147 limit and only weigh 147 himself, would that make it ok? Lol. He didn't request a catch weight. Doesn't even make sense. He request that this be considered a defense of both belts. And technically it has happened before.Comment
