    Current active boxers who jumped 2 weight divisions or more

    It's interesting to note that last night's combatant, Robert Guerrero jumped 2 weight divisions from Lightweight to Welterweight in his fight with Aydin.

    Who are the other active (not yet retired) boxers who made this kind of moving up?

    Let's try to list them.

    Guerrero - lightweight to welterweight
    Pacquiao - lightweight to welterweight

                  Well Marquez did it twice. And in the eyes of most, he's 1-1 & he did it against the supposed 2 greatest active fighters.

                  He didn't do it against a half dead opponent either.

                              Marquez jumped up 2 weight classes despite being the Ring Lineal champ to beat the Fighter of the Decade and capture a title in his 4th weight class

                                      How I wish Marquez got an official win at least one against Pac just like Morales. This 2 greats no matter how many times they fight the result will always close.
