    Suffice it to say that in those 19 fights:

    1) He often came in over 160.

    2) He often had an advantage in double-digit pounds, certainly 7/8 or more, more often than not.

    3) He feasted on welterweights who came up to the lower 150s. By resume, he’s the best welterweight of all time who normally came in above middleweight, haha.
