If a potential mega fight betweeen two fighters from different weight classes can be made only at catchweight, with neither fighter willing to go to the other fighter's weight class because he is too small or too big would you rather they fought at an agreed catchweight so we can enjoy the spectacle and ultimate goal of our sport to see the best fight the best or would you rather the fight did not take place at all than to see the traditions of weight classes so violated?


Also a secondary question to ponder. Why is it when two fighters in different weight classes could meet, its always assumed that its the little guys responsibility to move UP and not for the other fighter to move down? Is not the responsibility upon the two EQUAL? If Manny is regarded as universally p4p number 1 then why should any weight agreement involve him being a 'man' and moving up, and not the other guys being 'men' and giving up some weight?

And if the bigger fighter does not believe he can safely lose the weight, or that by doing so he gives up too much, what is actually wrong with them meeting halfway to ensure the fight still happens?
