    Mickey Walker's lowest recorded weight is 139 and his highest one is 179. Fought from JWW to HW and he was often giving away a lot of weight, the most being just under 50lbs.

    I can see you were probably not very good at good at reading comprehension when you were in school. :D

    Oh I thought you weren't insulting me :think

    is this but another thing you have changed? I'd hate to go shopping with you, so indecisive. And you called me the female. Oh the irony.

    :lol:

    listen man, you are arguing where PAC began his weight class. Therefore you should have told me that the numbers I entered were wrong, not my arithmetic.

    there, I showcased your own argument better than you can :lol::D:deal

    Evander Holyfield. Cruiserweights and Light heavies have been trying to do what he has done with little success. He's called the Real Deal for a reason. ATG Cruiserweight and ATG Heavyweight. No building up, was fighting for the championship by his 12th fight and was ready for Mike Tyson after only a few fights at Heavyweight. This is the type of fighter everybody claims they want but we know boxing fans were always full **** hypocrites.

    The real question is, how many have done it without PED abuse?

    Sam Langford 139-206lbs sticks out
    But he's a rare exception. One of the GOATs.

    SRR fought for the LHW title if I'm not mistaken.

    Yes, and almost won it.

    (He fought as a MW though)

    Joey Maxim, I think.

    The heat got to him. Of course it got to Maxim too. :yep

    SRR is #1 on my all-time p4p list.

    Nothing has changed, lad.

    Maybe I should draw you a picture.

    You don't seem capable of grasping the written word.

    In post #12, I told you...

    And in post 33, we came full circle, except your reading skills were not up to your arithmetic skills, so I told you...








    See, yet again, you still fail at reading, despite being reasonably sound at counting. (Maybe you're an idiot savant, or maybe just an idiot).

    Nowhere have I told you that your arithmetic was wrong. In fact, just the opposite.

    When you (mistakenly) thought I was criticizing your arithmetic and babbled on about 'rounding,' I told you that rounding had nothing to do with it. That should have given you a clue.

    Yet you persist is seeing what isn't there and trying to put your own 'spin' on what you see before your eyes.

    So just to summarize for you...

    That means you can probably count satisfactorily.


    That means you have difficulty understanding what you read.


    Got it ?

    If not, I can't help you.

    Maybe you could phone a friend. :yep
