    Yea but he's been fighting at 105-112 pounds. Almost no grown men are that small. How deep could the talent pool be with that deviant of a size range?

    Less than 1 percent of all grown men in America are 5'3" or smaller.

    There's a comparable amount of fighters in the four weight classes within Gonzalez's weight range than there are at welterweight. Gonzalez can draw quite easily from jr fly, fly and super flyweight-and it's not unheard of for minimumweights to move up.

    He's got more of a talent pool to choose from than you think.

    Pretty much everyone but white men are that small. There's almost no white men in Europe, North America, or elsewhere that short.

    Not any Africans are light flyweight either.

    Basically east Asians and Central americans. And I'd say most of them are at least bantamweight at the minimum.

    There's a lot of small black boxers in the lower weight classes actually. White people are really just tall to be honest. Not me though, I'm a shrimp. Haha

    Roman is amazing. His overall skill level reminds me of Ricardo Lopez.

    Africans come in all shapes and sizes, Caucasians usually come at the heavier weights, middleweight and up.

    Mthlane, Joyi and Tete have all won titles below bantamweight in recent years.

    That was easily Viloria's best performance in a loss. He didn't fall apart mentally or physically like his previous losses, he simply lost to the better man in Estrada.
