As you post, please be careful with your "facts". I have tons of these.

and your point is what exactly?

and your point is what exactly?

Showing the wide disparities between the weights.

And that sometimes, guys are actually the same size, but simply elect to campaign at different weight divisions.

For example, The LIGHTWEIGHT version of Mayweather was the same size as the FEATHERWEIGHT version of Marquez.

Spray, if you elect not to discuss, I understand. There's no shortage of threads to choose from.

Early in their careers, Manny was almost always the bigger/younger guy, and Floyd was almost always the smaller guy in their fights.

Later in their careers, Manny has been the smaller/younger guy.

The other falsehood being spread is that Sergio Martinez is some huge guy that should go fight the 168ers.

Sergio is MUCH smaller than those guys. MUCH.

..and I have the facts to back it up.

lol What the point? It's legit and has been going on for since boxing has been around those are the facts. It's part of the strategy/sweet science of boxing. As long as you make weigh in weight 24hrs prior, if the guy wants to come in 200lbs fight night weight so be it.
