    We know that HWs are bigger today than past ones, but is the same true for say, WWs and MWs?

    In ring weight come fight night, yes, the modern fighters are typically bigger. This is a function of the weigh-in rules changing from same day to day before, which allowed weight draining to become more prevalent and more extreme than before.
