strange fight posters
by Pound-for-Pound Mon Aug 22, 2011 12:21 am
just came across this poster for Carlos Monzon vs. Emile Griffith II which was unsurprisingly made in the 70's and was wondering if anyone had seen any stranger ones?

Was looking through some of Monzons opponents and came across Tony Mundine Sr. who once won the Australian Light-Heavyweight, Cruiserweight and Heavyweight titles in a single fight and was wondering if this is the only example of contesting belts in more than one weight division in one fight?

By the way, copying the image into the image link on here doesn't work :/

Hasn't anytime recently I don't believe. Which would lead me to the conclusion it wouldn't happen any more, as there is a lot of weight jumping.Pound-for-Pound wrote:No. SRL/Lalonde and Canzoneri/Ross did it.
