    I was just watching some old Gatti fights and came across the Gatti-Gamache fight where Gatti weighed like 15lbs more on fight night, he was massive compared to Gamache and that clearly played a part in the fight and in the brutal KO.

    Is that the biggest difference in weight or has their been others?

    Miguel Cotto outweighed Demarcus Corley by 17.5 pounds when they fought. Cotto was nearly KTFO in that fight.

    Including Heavyweights? Surely some of SNV's fights are up there then?
    PAC Clottey will have been a big difference as well.

    Margirito Pac in the ring was 17 lbs as well, that's a HUGE disadvantage to overcome as well as punching up for medium sized/little guys.

    Valuev has had to outweigh some of those guys by like 80 lbs, though, but it means I think slightly less to a heavyweight.

    Not including heavyweights actually, because that's a pretty open wight class.

    Ortiz was 164 when he fought FLoyd

    Mayweather is a giant tree killer
