    He has defended 147 so I think that should count.

    Both fighters take risks in catchweight bouts

    Ray Leonard TKO9 Donny Lalonde -- Las Vegas, Nov. 7, 1988


    This content is protected
    AP Photo/Lenny IgnelziThere wasn't a big enough size advantage to compensate the gulf in talent between Lalonde, left, and Leonard.


    Sugar Ray Leonard won two titles in one night when he stopped Donny Lalonde -- capturing the Canadian's WBC light heavyweight title while also winning the inaugural WBC super middleweight belt.

    Due to the super middle title being at stake, Lalonde was required to weigh no more than 168 pounds. He talked a great fight, referring to the 32-year-old Leonard as an "old, fat welterweight." While Lalonde fought well early, even scoring a knockdown, Sugar Ray proved to be a different class in terms of talent.

    When the boxers weighed in on the morning of the fight, Leonard's weight was announced as 165 pounds, two pounds lighter than Lalonde. He said in the postfight press conference, however, that his true weight was 159-and-a-half pounds. Leonard, who had weighed in wearing a track suit, said he had secretly placed weights in each pocket.

    On his last 7 fights, he won titles @ 5 different weight classes...that alone is really a big achievements. Most were against future hall of fame fighters. Now I see why people are thinking Mosley has no chance at all.

    140 was the Ring too, much better than the alphabet titles!
