Good call but 4lbs is 4 lbs; there's people on here dying for a crap that'll weigh more than that.

I definitely weigh more than 4lbs , and I imagine the vast majority of users of this site do also. I don't know what them dying for a crap has to do with it though.

Jason Booth is a name that is very hard not to mention. He was suppose to fight for the Super fly title and then took a fight at Super Bantam and stayed there until he fought for a World title.

Im going to say Chavez Jr also, because if he cared he would be in a lower weight class.

Lol are you joking? If anything Chavez jr should be in a higher weight class. After all, he does put on 20 pounds and > from the weigh in till the fight. He's huge.
