Ono,

As a knowledgeable boxing fan, I'm sure you know that a lightweight ages at a very different rate than a SMW or LHW. So you would not make that comparison.

If I'm looking at it wrong, I'm willing to accept new knowledge. Please list me all the former lightweights who were still very good at 36.

1) Shane Mosley
2)
3)
4)
what scientific fact backs up that analogy

if your 10 stone you will lose your boxing ability quicker than you would if you were 12 stone?

are fights at 140 more action packed thus taking more out of you?

So if Calzaghe was 10 stone (140) he wouldn't be able to throw 1000 punches per fight?
The reasoning goes that fighters in the lower weights throw a lot more punches than fighters in the higher weights. Which means they take a lot more punches. They get hit more. Which is why they tend to age faster than fighters in the higher weights who get hit less
