He crossed over by forcing Oscar to not just catchweight but drop a entire full weight class when Oscar hadn't been able to make 147 in almost a decade. Then forced Cotto to defend his belt at 145 after already fighting Oscar at 147. Then fought margarito for the 154lb world championship at a catchweight of 150. Instead of giving Marquez a immediate rematch to fights the public thought he lost he went draining welterweights and Jr middleweights for years worse then Canelo has ever done. But you were impressed when Manny did it.

Catchweight 151lbs
WBC Super Welterweight Title vs Matthew Hatton
Catchweight 149lbs (which Canelo came in 2lbs over for)
I'd continue, but almost all of his big fights after those were catchweights. Super Welterweight 149-154, Middleweight 155-160, Super Middleweight 164-168 with hydration clauses.
Anything to give an advantage to a fighter whos fans scream that he started at welterweight even though he was a 15 year old boy.

All divisions outside the original OPEN wt division that had zero wt stipulations are catchweights.
Duva says Canelo ain't even made an offer yet, so change yer pantaloons and move on until Canelo actually signs a contract.
