Anyone else sick of these catch-weights and rehydration clause?

    nope. i think some catchweights make sense and are right.

    what isn't right is when you are a champion in a weight class and you demand someone in that same weight class to fight at a catchweight knowing it will hurt your opponent (i.e. floyd vs canelo).

      I cant stand them, but there not going anywhere and there inly getting worse!!!

      If guys don't defend at the weight class, they should be stripped or forced to give up the title.

        Blame Oscar, Manny and Floyd.

        And yes I'm sick of them. Too many weight classes as is. I don't even view catch weight victories as real wins. Boxing is a sport of split second reaction - and draining fighters obstructs their abilities to do so.

          It should be completely abandoned by all bodies. There are plenty of weight classes today already, enough BS.
