i also consider ggg a career middleweight but that dosn't make it a fact that he fought his entire career at 160. what weight division was the steve rolls fight within?
Well see man that is where it gets so silly, the semantics and "technicalities" in boxing that is. At the time it was literally a catchweight with max allowed weight of 164, no more. Technically (gotta love boxing ) that is neither legit middleweight or legit spr middle. It's just silly shit, CW's in general, that was pretty pointless when the real story was his Dazn signing, ring return etc. No one cared. People can call it super middle, middle or a predictable 164 mismatch. Hey at least there wasn't a new division belt created for it . On a side also noticed Golovkin had two fights at 161 early career but can't recall the names if I was paid to.
