Examples of smaller fighters moving up for the first time and winning?

[Southpaw16BF]

pffffft, that doesn't matter. First off it was a 4 round fight, his first fight, in 1988!!!


The Henry Armstrong/Barney Ross is a great example.

Hey you said ''And remember, it has to be their first fight'' Hopkins fight against Tarver wasn't his first fight at the weight he had fought at 174 before no matter if it was his first fight or not.

Tito up to 154 and 160 before Hopkins destruction.
