I cant think of another fight that is already made for this year that I am looking forward to more
That's all fair comment, but if it's such an interesting fight, then don't make it for the title.
The reality is, that if there wasn't a title at stake , a.) it wouldn't generate as much interest, and b.) it would have a touch of the "Circus act" look about it.
at the end of the day, a World Title fight should NEVER have a catchweight or weight limit other than the official division weight limit.
all very true, but not the worst situation for a world title fight there's ever been

Charles Martin is World Heavyweight champ, alright his fight wasn't a catch weight and both fighters had fought at HW before but common, legitimate?

there's probably been 50 less legitimate world title fights per year for the last 10 years
