    I'm hoping to get some good responses to this one. Off the top of my head I think Marvin Hagler fought at middle his entire career. I'm not sure how it was classified this far back but I know Sugar Ray Robinson fought anywhere from 135 to 160 so i don't think we can count him. What do you all think though?

    Exactly, I remember wathcing fight for a lightweight title. I also remember him getting his ass handed to him by Roy Jones Jr. so that ruled him out!

    Hagler in my mind was the best of guys who stayed at one weight. Solid at 160. As for Vinny Pazienza, Pazienza fought Jones and Roy totally outclassed him. I think one round Vinny did not land one punch. That is amazing in a way.
