    Not at all, he is just at his walking weight. If you drain Sam Soliman like some competitive boxers do he can be a lightweight or walks around as a Light heavyweight

    It will be a great fight, especially if they unify a bunch of minor heavyweight belts & start passing themselves like World champions to Japanese casuals :happy

    Julio Cesar Chavez jr vs Nobuhiro Ishida (WBC silver, WBO Asia, WBA interim, Papa, WBF, IBO, IBA, IBU, IBA, GPU)

    I have to admit I can't help it but have this sick suspicion, that undisciplined Julio Cesar Chavez will come too heavy even for the Heavyweight division :mad:

    This fight has to be done in Tokyo, Sumo talent scouts...Will spot Julio Cesar Chavez and they lure him into his dream training camp...Julio Cesar Chavez jr. S&C consists of pot, munchies, noodles & meat balls hits the spot and he becomes Julio "the Mexican Shogun" Cesar Chavez jr.Sumo Sensation... all 400 lbs of him :boxer

    That is actually quite high. Even big punchers rarely ever stop half their amateur foes. The ratios are much smaller than seen in the pros. Like, 20% is beastly.

    In what division(s) was he?

    He competed in the All Japan Amateur championships in 1999 at Light Middleweight. Not sure if he fought in others though.

    ishida took more abuse from triple G (before the knockout blow) than anyone besides maybe stevens. he can take a punch, and give one too. wouldn't surprise me if he beats that japanese heavy.

    In '93 he won a tournament at lightweight.

    In '86 he debuted at flyweight.



    If he gets by Kyotaro, he should drop to Cruiser and challenge Guillermo Jones for the WBA title - and bragging rights as boxing's #1 weight-climber. (three years older than Ishida, Jones debuted at welter - not sure what division he competed in amateurs - and has obtained world titles as low as 154lbs and up as high as 200lbs)

    Filled into a natural heavyweight you think then? Amazing how he's stayed at 154/160 for so long.

    That's the guy that Golovkin knocked out eh? What a beast, no wonder he smoked Kirkland.

    40-ish year old former super welter/middleweight now campaigning around cruiser/heavy tournament:

    Guillermo Jones, James Toney, Antonio Tarver, Nobuhiro Ishida.

    Add Roy Jones Jr & Epifanio Mendoza
    At one point both were invincible 16-0 (KO 16) Light Middleweights, then they had interesting careers...Cruisers with some heavyweight adventures :yep
