I didn't know what it meant either, but apparently it's a boxing term. If I understand it, Obama is saying "You're a lightweight but you sometimes land a punch on a heavyweight." ergo: punching above your weight

Obama is a lightweight punching below his class, He has basically said the exact same thing to scores of smaller countries. The greater insult is that ay least he could have come up with some original words for each of them. It did not go unnoticed. His teleprompter must have been stuck on replay....
