How can one defend the MW title when they are fighting over the MW limit? If he had the SMW title and fought someone at MW, then and only then could he defends titles at both weight classes. Mayweather for example was defending his WW and LMW titles against Maidana at 147. He couldn't fight Canelo and put his WW titles on the line as the fight would take place over the WW limit.

Even if he is a challenger that isn't the reason why he can't defend the 160 titles.

No, he wouldn't lose his MW title if he loses this fight.

Mikey Garcia has the LW WBC title, if he loses to Spence he's not losing that title.

WTF?
How can you lose your middleweight title when you are challenging for a super middle and the champion is not coming in at 160 or below ?

That's like saying Jose Napoles should have lost his welter belt after he was KO'd by Monzon for the middleweight belt.

Not fighting under the 160 limit so technically it should not even be possible.
