    it's probably harder to name guys great in more than 1 of the original weight classes (not the 5lb divisions). all fighters have an ideal weight and it takes something very special to have greatnes outside that weight.

    Freitas.
    Great at 130. Not the same at 135, but still good enough to be a 2 time world champ.

    Shane pulled off his biggest wins at 147, but he looked the best - and far better - at 135. The Shane of 1998 vs. the LWs of 2008 is a one-sided massacre.
