yes they have. some people are just blinded by their hatred. lol
most the cases on that list were basically shot fighters such as, Vargas, Trinidad, Jones, Maske, Hill, and Taylor.

or the weight drastically favored one fighter such as, Castillo/Corrales II, Norris/Taylor, Leonard/Lalonde, and Trinidad/Jones Jr.

so basically proves that more times than not, catchweights are pointless, hell even the way that DLH/Hopkins ended makes it valid that it was a pointless catchweight fight
