    Catchweight champ, sure.....
    The fight was for a title, it was not catchweight, Margarito agreed to come in at 150.

    Catchweight fights have to by definition be non title, as the two fighters can weigh what they wish, under the Heavyweight limit (200lbs today).

    As for eight division champ; it seems every half decent fighter gets some world title to claim, so to stand out the excellent fighters need lots. I do not think in itself it is much more than padding an already excellent resume.
