I see that the Danny Williams vs. Marcin Rekowski fight is listed as a Cruiserweight fight (I.e under 200 pounds), despite the fighters weighing 282.25 and 229.25 pounds respectively.

Do you know of any other fights where the fighters are so far away from the listed weight division?

what did ketchel weigh for the johnson fight?

Sugar Ray Leonard fought Lalonde for the light heavy title and the supermiddle title on the same night despite being quite a bit under the supermiddle weight limit.I think he was about 10 pounds under light heavy but still walked away with both belts.

Alvarez-Lara is listed at middleweight.

Why is that one strange? They both came in over the 154 pound weight limit.
Over 154 up to 160 is middleweight.Sounds right to me.

I guess they stipulated a 155 catchweight. I didn't remember that.

I noticed a handful of fights that took place around welterweight size but are listed as heavyweight bouts. I assume this must just be an error?
