Stupid question right? Gotta be a fuckin troll. But would you believe there were middleweights who had the balls to bang with heavyweights and that some actually pulled off wins? I mean that's insane right I gotta be high or something making up nonsense stories. You can't see Canelo taking on a Cruiserweight Holyfield or a Lightheavyweight Andre Ward with no catch weight right? No fuckin way he would have had the guts to face Marciano who in today's standard is a Cruiserweight. Unless of course Rocky shrinks to 155, Canelo's special weight class.

Well back in the day, boxers fought everyone they can. Great Middleweight Stanley Ketchel was crazy enough to take on Jack Johnson and managed to floor the bigger fella. Middleweight Charley Burley beat Heavyweight J.D. Turner. How about 5'7 Sam Langford knocking out 6'2 Heavyweight Harry Wills? Another one is Welterweight and Middleweight legend Mickey Walker who took on guys like Arthur De Kuh 223 lbs who outweighed him by almost 50 lbs, Max Schmelling who outweighed him by 14 lbs and Paul Uzcudun who outweighed him by 27 lbs.

The greatest Middleweight Harry Greb would give up 10-20 lbs in a regular basis. Man I wish I was there to witness them legends beat on bigger opponents. Now let's talk about this era. There's now about how many divisions? 17 right? And a pound or two is still an issue. Many fights couldn't be made over weight issues when the legends of the past were willing to give 10-50 lbs to make a fight. Is there anyone 80s up to present capable of such challenge? What are your thoughts about those legends mentioned and the risks they faced?

While you're at it imagine Hagler vs Spinks or Monzon vs Marciano or GGG vs Bhop. Wait there's a tricky part. Since same day weigh in isn't in effect anymore, weight disadvantage is still happening. Boxers balloon when they rehydrate. Who knows what Canelo Alvarez actually weighs during fight night. Daniel Jacobs looked like a Lightheavyweight during fight night. How about Carlos Baldomir? Before I end this longass crap lemme ask was Haye vs Valuev the biggest mismatch ever? 99lb difference!
