        Anything above 200 lbs is fair game in the HW's.

          Heavyweight is the highest division in boxing, and the rules are you can weigh whatever you want. If you can't cut it, then be a cruiserweight. In the age of the super-size heavyweights, you would think this would be more of an issue than it is, but in general I have always been impressed with the ability of heavyweight boxers to overcome sometimes huge size differences.

                Tua was his WBC and IBF mandatory, there was no way of avoiding that fight.

                    Grant, Akinwande, and Klitschko were all taller than Lewis.
