Mate, you forget one thing, and it has been pointed out. Boxing is a SPORT. That's why they have weights, the same as Horse racing has handicaps and the NFL Have drafts.
It's a way of setting a level playing field.
What you're talking about is a street scrap or circus act.
As a scrapper, may weather would lose to the HW's , but that isn't Sport and doesn't mean he isn't the best BOXER.
He may not the best scrapper or the hardest, I'll give you that.
it does mean he isn't the best boxer, he would be beaten at boxing by another fighter
the NFL having drafts isn't the same thing, there are still 11 men against 11 men on the pitch and the teams put out their best 11, regardless of there shape and size
you don't get flyweights in the NFL and theres a very good reason for that
I don't know how horseracing works
there are no flyweights in football, Rugby, even cricket and hockey, they are just not physically strong enough to compete
if there was a flyweight football competition and there was a team who was miles better than all of the other flyweight football teams, and the middleweight football competition was a lot closer would the flyweight football team be the best football team in the world?
