That's a pretty strong argument, I could be corrected here but you could counter it by saying Hagler-Hearns and Leonard-Hearns and all the other fights in that era were for titles and NOT catchweights. I mean, we have to decide what's more important , Catchweights and putting certain fights on , or Titles. I have an open mind on it, maybe we get rid of all the governing bodies and have TV and Promoters putting on Prize fights. It's kinda going full circle really. Interesting.
