    I'm sick of this catch weight bullshit. Either fight at proper weights or don't fight at all. A Mosley fight should be 147 and no lighter. If Manny Pac wants to be a WW then so be it. But forget all this catch weight bullshit. And that is what it is.

    Largly its become one big glamore show of 'p4p mega fights' that are fueled by the major networks on super star familuarity.Ive been waaaay too cynical on this for the longest,back to HBO clamoring for a Norris vs.Whitaker,Jones jr vs. Whitaker, Tito Trinidad or all of that Jones fighting Mike Tyson hype.Imo,it has everything to do with stardom attached to calling oneself "P4P" in the sport and the coin that gos along with it.I miss dominate Champions!All the while we miss Champions cleaning out a division of as of yet discovered talents,some dismissed because 'we dont know the name' as a major player or serious threat .Sort of a vicious catch 22.

    Catch weights should not be allowed period.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
