          John Mugabi was competing at 154 and 160, losing to Hagler at 160, then won a title at 154.

          DLH was gift-wrapped a middleweight WBO belt against Sturm, lost to Hopkins at a 158 catch weight, then won a title at 154 against mayorga

          Zab Judah so a title at 140, beat Cory Spinks for the title at 147, then won a title at 140 years later

                  Reminds me, Hearns moved up to beat Andres for the WBC Lt. heavyweight belt and then dropped the weight to fight for the middleweight title.
