    I boxed in the early to mid 90's ,my first few fights the trainer simply asked the round weight we wished to fight at ie ten stone ,eleven stone ,12 stone etc ,when I turned up when I turned up the guy I was due to fight was probable a stone heavier ,I was asked if I still wanted to fight which I did,..

    I realise that in proper organised and sanctioned boxing this is unusual and I might point out that the gym I fought at initially was more a fighting gym ie kickboxing ,mma ,Thai boxing etc but does this kind of thing still happen ? ,what is the biggest weight difference you have seen or fought at ? interested in opinions .
