    My vote is the Gman I believe he was 185lbs? on fight night.

    Badou Jack is up there.

    I would be interested to know some of Toney's fight night weights from this time.

    Any rock hard evidence?
    I’m looking for 190-200lbs SMWs or LHW’s for... research.

    I believe @Serge had a compilation of fight night weights for Jack, Stevenson, Pascal etc in one of his threads. Some of the fight night weights were shocking.

    Excellent, it’d be great if he made an appearance.

    They were all up at LHW though

    The heaviest I'm aware of is David Benavidez who another poster claimed weighed 195 for his last fight albeit technically he wasn't a SMW because he missed weight by over 2lbs. But if indeed it's true he weighed 195 and you subtract those 2lbs + from his fight night weight and he actually made 168 it would still be by far the heaviest weight for a SMW on fight night I've ever heard of. In fact, it would be right up there with the heaviest LHW fight night weights.

    FTR, I haven't seen any proof he weighed that much but I have no reason to distrust the poster who said he did. IIRC it was @Chuck Norris

    What about SMW’s in the 185-190 range? any hard information of fighters not dying to make that weight.
