    Blown up welters are manny, Bradley, floyd, broner, marquez..


    I would say guys like Maidana, khan, Devon, are legit natural welters, even though they started in lighter weights... They grew into a welter frame

      If he turned pro at 18 he would have fought at 140. He didn't. He fought in the amateurs as he matured unlike someone like Cotto who turned pro early and cut massive amount of weight to make 140 at 21.

      The guy is fighting at his max weight, so just get over it already.

      2000 won the Junior World Championships in Budapest, Hungary as a Light Welterweight

      Thats 17-18 year old teenager GGG

      "2004 Middleweight Olympic Silver Medalist as a member of the Kazakhstani Olympic Team"

      Thats GGG at 22 years old, 1 year difference from cotto

      Turned pro at 23, in 2005, 10 years later still a middleweight

      Always read twice before replying and do ur research
