They are not the same, because they are completely different concepts. They are more or less proportional - a mass of one kilogram will have a weight of approximately 9.8 Newton - because the gravity is more or less the same on different parts of the Earth: whether you are at the North Pole, or the Equator, the distance from the center of the Earth won't change much.
