    Margarito against Pac was a big size disparity.

    Vernon Forrest.

    Some guys have light bones and are just hollow framed, some big guys don't cut that much weight, they are just not dense.

    Juan Urango at 140. One of the best physiques Ive ever seen in any fighter. Too bad he was so limited he certainly had the physical gifts.

    That's one I was going to name.

    A lot of Welterweights in particular look huge to me because I'm 145lbs myself and many of them would appear to be literally twice my size side by side. I can't imagine how this man could be 3" taller than me and be able to cut down to my weight:

    Most he ever rehydrated to unofficially was 170, and that was wearing clothes, for his 149 pound fight against Corrales. But yeah, dude was huge.
