Welterweight is 140lbs to 147lbs. So where does 150lbs belong? Can it be considered a catchweight in the middleweight category.

Thanks.

150lbs belongs to: Light Middleweight (also known as Junior Middleweight or Super Welterweight).
It will be the 8th weight class pacquiao will be getting a title on if ever. :D

Pacquiao walks around 155 without cutting weight. His optimum fighting weight is 140. No brainer here. There's a reason why there was a catchweight in the contract when he fought De la Hoya, why Freddie Roach would only let Pac fight Mosley and Cotto at a catchweight. If he fought at 147 for the title, he'd be fighting guys who'll weight around 155-160 lbs. The most he weighed in a fight is 148. 10 lbs is a LOT of difference!

Just imagine getting hit in the face with a 10 lbs slab of beef or pork in the face... in average speed of 60 mph min!

Not a chance at 150. His highest I'd say would be 147 and that's really stretching it.

De La Hoya - Pacquiao don't have a catchweight. It was a welterweight fight (147)

His biggest and heaviest opponent to-date is Hatton coming in at 152 during fight night. If he can find an opponent that will agree to a 150 lb catchweight and will agree to a same day weigh in, it will be possible 8)

Light Middleweight (also known as Junior Middleweight or Super Welterweight).
One poster is right. It's possible if they can lure somebody to 150lbs with a same day weigh-in.
