I understood you to be asking who would win a fight not a boxing match.As in you would be allowed to grab hold the guy and throw him around like a rag doll.
why would you even consider throwing a punch if you are 100lbs heavier than a guy....
For the record, in the future, you don't need to mention your height and weight, or refer to your strength and lifting skills. You are a FBG, so we already know you're 6'2 225lbs and can bench 255 25+ times.
Where do you believe your cutoff is? Do you think you could beat Mayweather? You've got over 75 lbs. on him. How about Ricky Hatton at 140? And are you talking about just in boxing?I just consider it common sense. It is why weight classes exist.
Agreed.Featherweights aren't fourth graders. It would be a bloodbath.
I don't think you'd last three rounds and you'd be lucky to land a punch for every ten times you'd get hit. Boxing requires incredible stamina, strength, speed and agility regardless of the weight class.
Talking a straight fight. I would be allowed to use the advantages my size and reach gives me.I'm not trying to be macho - I'm just saying. I don't think it is a stretch at all...ETA - no idea where the cutoff would be. Huge difference though from a 5'1" 125lb to a 5'8/9" 150lb. guy. The question was about featherweights.. so I will stick to that.Where do you believe your cutoff is? Do you think you could beat Mayweather? You've got over 75 lbs. on him.

Well now you have to allow for circumstance and luck. Although I would bet on the pro every time the amateur might pull one on out on occasion.fixedA trained professional beats a big amateur pretty much every time.Talking a straight fight.

He would hit you 5 times before you you even got your arm cocked. By the time you were ready to punch him, it would be pointless as you would not be able to see him with all the blood in your eye. Hopefully you pass out before he finishes you...
Maybe if the amatuer gets to use a 2x4Well now you have to allow for circumstance and luck.

You = 
:whoosh: 
I grew up with this guy Buddy McGirt, 135 lbs., and he would just destroy any guy in the gym. Destroy them. And they had training. You'd be a slightly more mobile punching bag, but only for about a minute. 
The amateur US boxing team of the 70's and early 80's generally held their own against the Soviets and the Cubans?
Manny Pacquiao is about 5'6" 130.

We are using the word amateur in a different sense, as in a guy off the street w/ no training.

Does he know Dirt McGirt?
So no coked up judge giving him the split?
OK, split decision. Nice work landing that one accidental elbow, shadyruiz.So no coked up judge giving him the split?
For fighters of the same skill level.
Yeah untrained, I don't care if you're Yao Ming, you may survive unscathed but you ain't "wooping" ####.The body shots he'd take would make you hate life for two weeks.For fighters of the same skill level.

When they announced the 1st judge's score last nite, I was .
Fair enough.. but why is everyone assuming thisd is a boxing match? Of course I would't sit there and try to box him. I doubt I would swing once.Yeah untrained, I don't care if you're Yao Ming, you may survive unscathed but you ain't "wooping" ####.The body shots he'd take would make you hate life for two weeks.For fighters of the same skill level.
