Who wins? Nando is the bigger man, but doesn't have any other advantage over prime Curry. Is size enough?
No, and it would look something like the DLH match, with Curry doing his own Ali shuffle after the first KD

More of your comical 24-hour weigh-in statements. Vargas wasn't a weight cheat. He was probably as TRUE a junior middle as there's ever been... too big for 147, but too small for 160. He was only putting on like 7-8 pounds by fight time. I know that because I just re-watched Vargas-Raul Marquez maybe 4 nights ago.. Vargas came into the ring at 162. I believe he started putting on more weight once he started suffering back problems, but we're talking peak Vargas here. If this matchup is at 154... then Curry himself would put on a few extra pounds post weigh-in. Vargas would HARDLY have 20 pounds on him. So argue the actual matchup, not your weird 24-hr weigh in crap.
So despite the fact that HBO weighed him in at 162? Where'd those extra 8 pounds come from? Like I said, Vargas became more of a fat ass when his back gave out. But pre-Trinidad, he was pretty lean and in-shape. He wasn't a weight cheat like Canelo. A suppermiddleweight hiding at junior middle. Vargas was a true junior middleweight.
He was a “true junior middleweight” who weighed two pounds over the the limit for the weight class above Junior middleweight?
