    RJJ is the only one that has remained defined from those mentioned and there's a cloud of speculation surrounding him. And Holyfield too.

    are you for real? are you blind? havent you heard the works done by pac each time he fights? wont that make you ripped? if youre going for that logic, should you also suspect floyd? aint floyd ripped enough for you? or you see him as flabby as flab?

        One of the greats of all time, and we haven't mentioned him yet! The first major modern weight jumper, The Hitman, Tommy Hearns!

        Did anyone say him yet? He went from 140 (though he was fighting WW's) and ended up as a CW. Won titles from WW (147) through to CW (200), although it was only for the IBO title.

        Today though, the IBO has suddenly become what may be the next major title because Hatton and Pac held it and they needed to make it seem as they he had a legit title at 140.

        I doubt Pac will move above 150, but Fly to 150 is a massive leap. 40 pounds and still fighting brilliantly.

        Anyway, enough about Pac. Hearns won the IBO CW title from the excellent WBA CW champion Nate Miller, and also had that incredible one punch KO of Lenny LaPaglia at CW too for the WBU title. Brutal.

        So he moved up about 60 pounds, winning titles all the way.

        I wonder how Williams will go over his career? Already gone 147 to 160 and is still very young and in his prime. If he can increase his skill and power, he could very easily go up much higher and do well still.

        I believe Ted Kid Lewis also started at Flyweight and moved up to LHW by the time he finished his career or have we already mentioned him?

          Reminds me of that AM fight between Hearns and Pryor, at like 130 pounds or something like that. Tommy looking like a stick figure. So yeah, he gained a tremendous amount of weight during his career.

          Should be noted that Pac is coming into the ring weighing 2 or 3 pounds more at WW than he was at 130 a couple years ago. He's just not draining himself to make weight anymore. Might catch up to him against the much larger Margarito, time will tell.
