    209lb Luicien vs 159lb Monzon.

    Can ATG middleweight Monzon be an exception to the rule cope with the colossal size difference of fighting a genuine 15 round, Euro level heavyweight?

    Is it intellectually dishonest to make a case for ATG Monzon, or is it far too ridiculous of a done deal that size matters, weight divisions are there for a reason?

    Probably it is a little in a sense, because really it's about heavyweights an it's about Marciano. So it's misleading. You're not interested in Monzon you just want to be able to "quote the forum" in discussions on Marciano.

    It's not bad or wrong or anything, it's not even that uncommon unfortunately. But as long as you are asking, yes, probably dishonest and not ideal for quality of forum.
