When they do the tale of the tape and all that, are the arms measured relaxed or flexed? It says Tyson's arms are 16", i've seen him before close up and his arms look like they are about 17 1/2 flexed at least. His arms must be 16 relaxed

THAT I KNOW OF THEY MEASURE THEM WHEN THEY R FLEXED. WHAT MAKES HIS ARMS LOOK SO BIG IS THE DEFENITION ON THEM. I HAVE 17 IN. ARMS AND THEY DO NOT LOOK AS BIG AS MIKE'S

Does it really matter?

If arm size really meant something, this guy would be the new heavyweight champion.

I think an extremely strong arm plays a part in having a great (note: great is foreman) jab, because that punch is mostly an arm punch. Arm size means nothing, throw jabs until muscular fatigue while someone holds the bag, do this three times, then the next day feel your jab arm bicep. sore as ****, so imo having a strong arm definately correlates to shotgun jabbage

I have 19" arms and I got tore up by a middleweight. :o He was quick. Once he got past my jab he opened up like a S.O.B.

Seeing Tyson stand beside Sylvester Stallone, his arms have to be way over 16" flexed, they were so much bigger than Sly's, and he made Sly look like a middleweight

Tale of the Tape. (http://www.ibhof.com/ibhftape.htm)

Tale of the Tape for some modern, and classic heavyweights.


Examine George Foreman:

That is one BIG dude. No wonder they call him "Big George".

his biceps are 20'. Thats almost 2 inches bigger than Primo

Carnera, who is the best physical specimen to ever enter a ring.

Tye Fields would be a close third to these two.

Yea but that was the OLD George Foreman, that 20 inches was mostly due to fat. The young Foreman only had 15 inchers.

Rocky Marciano 14" Tony Tubbs 13", must be relaxed. If Marciano was only 14" flexed he wouldn't have had that much power
