Plus most of the top welterweights are just way bigger than the top LWW.
Think of Paul Williams and Antonio Margarito. 7 pounds can mean the world.
So by that logic your claiming someone of a natural body structure to move up to 154 like paul williams becomes completely ineffective at that weight level.
Mayweather was probably told when at SF not to bother moving up, yet has become the worlds greatest p4p fighter in 3 divisions higher than where he began.
Great fighters always learn to adapt, think you`ll find at least 90% of the great fighters of the last 20 years have made their names in a variety of different divisions!!
