If you cant challenge a weight at that weight for a title that represent that weight then PISS OFF!
Since when can anyone be forced to fight at a catchweight? If you do not like the terms then do not sign!
Perhaps you don't recall Pacquiao/Cotto negotiations? Cotto said no to the catchweight so the sanctioning body said make the fight or be stripped of your title. TR was not offering a fight at 147 though so he could not agree to fair terms. His options were agree to be weakened or lose his belt. It was not as simple as just "do not sign".
