    Meehan and Alabama Kid. Walker and Ketchel, and I think Greb.

    I'm more astonished I remembered that lol

    I think Barkley is one of the few MW champs who beat HW champs.

    I believe Guillermo Jones started at 147 and won a belt at 154 before moving to Cruiserweight and beating up Lebedev. I'm pretty sure he fought at Heavyweight as well although against way inferior competition.
