in the weightclass above which they operate. I don't mean fighters who are clearly overweight and shouldn't be in the weightclass they are in anyway. I mean fighters who have a style that means they would struggle in the weightclass above. Clearly, Ricky Hatton is a fighter who struggles as a welterweight. Another example might be Juan Diaz. Yes, he's podgy, but in any case his style may well mean he would struggle at 140lbs.

So people, let's name some one-division wonder boxers (and say why they couldn't be successful in the division above).

Judah already moved up a division, he was a light welterweight.

His power might actually improve if he didn't have to come in so weight drained.

Moving up to heavy. In fact 90% of cruisers moving up to heavyweight.
