"CATCH WEIGHTS"
EX: When a Super Welterweight fighter at 173 lbs and a Middleweight at 178 lbs want to fight.

What you need to look at in this case is the most narrow weight spread, which is always in the lower weight class of the two.
For Super Welterweight, the weight spread is 5 lbs where is as in the Middleweight class, it goes to a 7 lb. spread.
A fight can only happen inside the limits of the "SPREAD" of the lightest fighter.
So for this example, (Super Welterweight at 173 lbs. and a Middleweight at 178 ) this would be OK as a catch weight.
However if the Super Welterweight fighter was 172 and the Middleweight at 178, that's an 6 lbs. spread, and would not be allowed.


CONVERTING LBS. TO KG. AND BACK
For those looking to convert lbs to kg. If you have a 65 kg fighter and want to know how many lbs. that is, multiply it by 2.2. So, 65 kg X 2.2 = 143 lbs. If you have a 145 lb fighter and want to know the weight in kg, divide it by 2.2. So 145 / 2.2 = 65.90 kg.
