A possible contradiction?

[edit]

Hello. There appears to be a contradiction, or at least a tension, between these two sentences, with parts highlighted by me for emphasis.


Although professional boxers may fight above their weight class, an amateur boxer's weight must not fall below the lower limit. (from the opening paragraph)

Theoretical comparisons of the merits of boxers in different weight classes are a popular topic for boxing fans, with a similar speculative appeal to comparing sports figures from different eras; in both cases, the competitors could never face each other in reality. (from the end of the section on culture)


Am I missing something?

Best wishes,

"Dr. Dave"
