    Floyd was smaller than Oscar by 20 lbs. He weighed 150 on fight night vs Canelo while Canelo was 175 lbs.

    Canelo wasn't allowed to be higher than 152. Try again.

    The spookiest guy in terms of beating bigger men is Jimmy Wilde. Some of the cards are iffy, maybe, but what Wilde did should not have been possible.
