Re: The positive discrimination of smallest weight fighters.
Amongst the "little child men" silliness I think you have a decent argument there Bilbo.
I made a similar point in a debate about Ricardo Lopez recently. He beat no "greats" or P4P stars yet is rated alongside sliced bread with the MAJORITY of boxing fans, even though all other fighters are judged by the "greats"/P4P fighters they beat.
That's a bit inconsistent, no? The answer was - tiny guys get overlooked P4P because it is not popular, so naturally will not produce "stars."
But I think the lack of fighters numerically must surely mean a lack of talent also. Which does seem to get ignored by most.
