  • How much of a factor is height, build and style when moving up in weight?

    Usually I would think somebody who is of average height, 5'9 and a tall but wide frame with good defensive style could be effective in almost all the divisions ala James toney 160 +

    However, pacman, 5'6 with a very aggressive style has been very impressive over the years

    so how much do height, build and style play a factor in a fighters growth n success through weight divisions

    i see triple ggg being a champ at 168 175 and maybe cruiserweight? who knows?

    who else could u see moving up atleast 3 divisions

    Always a huge factor except during the PED age.

      I think reach and fighting style play the biggest factor.
