If Cotto and PAC want to fight at a catchweight fine, but you cannot justify it being for a title other than you want your boy to get his 7th div title. If PAC wants a 7th division title fight someone within the limits of the seventh division, not some made-up limit.
If a champ agrees to it then a title can be on the line at a catchweight. Just like in the past fighters have agreed to a catchweight to put two division titles on the line.

Come on guys this isnt the first time its going to happen.
Those were just as much if not more BS than this. I would never endorse multiple weight titles in the same fight it doesn't make any sense. Yes it has happened, but it shouldn't have. For example, how can you justify fighting for a middleweight title at 164 lbs. Do boxers now have carte blanche to determine what weightclasses are? If that's the case why have weight classes at all?
