What does that say about the ability of the fighters in the lower weight classes?

If Haye can win despite an almost 100lbs weight difference, he clowns Pac.

TBH its a ridiculous difference in size. There should be a SHW division. And people were mad about Cotto dropping 2 pounds to fight Pacquiao?!!

I see a big difference in weight in other HW fights to, not as big as 100lbs, but 10lb -20lbs is pretty common. Just curious as to why people make such a fuss when it comes to the little guys.

i wouldnt make a big deal about it
valuev has been outboxed by a b level fighter in chagaev and a shot holyfield-both of whom are no bigger than haye

The size difference tonight is similar to what the size difference would be if Pac faced one of the Klitschkos.

I understand Valeuv is slow but you would never see Pac/Cotto/Mayweather face a dude that weighed 170lbs no matter how slow he was supposed to be. Hell Roach threatened to penalize Cotto if he came in two pounds over 145lbs. I respect all fighters no matter the size, but it seems like a double standard.
