    Mark Breland springs to mind.....can remember him turning up in the UK looking like a stick-insect with an eating disorder and doing a proper number on one of my first boxing heroes Lloyd Honeyghan. He sparked a fair number of guys very early indeed but met his match with Starling.

      Hearns and Arguello were the two that instantly came into my mind upon seeing the thread title.

        gerald mcclellan, too. those were the first three i thought of.

        arguello came first. "flaco exlposivo" ...to easy.

        oh, and before i finished the post another jumped to mind: bob foster.

            Olivares looked like one of those send money to them in the 3rd world kids. Hardest puncher P4p maybe besides Jackson/Hearns

                  The thread title is a bit of a paradox. For example arguello, hearns, lopez, breland, tito etc were all skinny, but none of them were small at the weight. In fact they were all big at the weight.

                  Pacquiao, tyson, abraham etc were/are all small at the weight but none of them are skinny, again if anything its the oposite.

                  Poorly written title. When you talk about size in boxing you generally talk about the frame of a fighter, in order to have a larger frame than others at the weight you would usually have to carry less muscle. Now you have a tall thin guy, yet hes the biggest guy at the weight.

                  Btw dlh was skinny especially at 130 and 135.
