Former lineal cruiserweight champion weighed 135 lbs early in his pro career

[codfather]

Puerto Rican Carlos De Leon.

Carlos De Legend more like.

He was only 17 when he weighed 135 lbs so he wasn't done growing, but it's still impressive.

Right on, makes me think of George Carpentier, competed from Flyweight to Heavyweight. Won the Light Heavyweight world title and Heavyweight european title. Didn't quite attain the world heavyweight title though.

It obviously isn’t in the same league but ezzard Charles ended up at hw for monetary reasons.

His fight vs Lebedev was brutal, I was shocked by the beatdown given, and how he walked through Lebedevs punches. Granted, he has failed a number of piss tests.

Langford beat Gans at LW and Wills at HW.

I remember watching Jones fighting Boudouani for the WBA 154 belt like twenty years ago.

I remember that too, great fight between Jones and the French Arturo Gatti

 

[Unknown Pleasures]

Roberto Duran is probably up there for a question like this. Since his pro debut I think was at like bantamweight or something absurd like that and he found up to light heavyweight.

And it's probably something absurd that he beat people that won world titles from featherweight to light heavyweight except maybe he never beat someone who was a junior lightweight or junior welter title holder.

Boudouani was a fun fighter indeed. Lots of pop. Terrible cardio at the beginning of his career that earned him 2 KO losses against journeymen, though. Lost his last pro fight to David Reed in a lackluster performance, I think he was injured or something.

His wrecking of Julio Cesar Vasquez was one hell of a knockout.
