Heavyweight: 6'3
Despite the last two great HW champions Wladimir and Lennox both being
6'5-6'6, I actually think the perfect height will be someone like David Haye,
6'3. I think at 6'3 you are big enough to not be dominated by a lot of the super heavys, but also not too big in that you can maintain your speed along with agility.
Light Heavy Weight: 6'1.
SMW: 6'2
Lucian Bute imo got the perfect height and size. Sadly he lacked in a lot of other areas. Andre Ward imo is a bit on the small size for SMW.
MW: 6'1
Jermain Taylor, Bernard Hopkins height seem perfect.
Welterweight: 6'1
This is the one division in which I think a very tall, aggressive fighter with great boxing skills will be better then a average sized or smaller one.
Being a 6'1-6'2 fighter like Hearns at the WW Division is devastating. At WW you can still be fast and agile at 6'0+
140 Division: 5'9
Danny Garcia's 5'9 seem perfect
