  • Best examples of a short fighter outboxing a much taller fighter

    Not pressuring or outworking but actually outboxing. Preferably against tall fighters who fight tall (So no Mayweather-Corrales)

    Can the same be said for Duran vs Barkley or Tyson vs Berbick?

            Two great welters, Sugar Ray Robinson 5'11"
            was out scored by Carmen Basillo 5' 6 1/2". Thats a big difference at 147lbs.

              Kostya Tszyu vs Vernon Forrest (amateur World Championships)
              this fight shows what an unbelievable fighter Tszyu was. He fought at 140 in the pros and Forrest went up to 154 pounds.

                True, except their fights were fought at Middleweight!

                  @Ray Corso, SRR vs Basilio wasn't really an "outboxing" as such though.

                  I'd look to the middle part of SRL vs Hearns I.

                  Hagler vs Fulgencio Obel is a decent one, both fights actually. Although Hagler had 3 inches in reach despite giving away 3 or 4 inches in height.

                    Ivan Calderon is almost every fight.
