  • Who has the best combination of Speed & Height/Reach?

    looking for good examples of fighters who are quick and tall with good reach, not necessarily heavyweights as most of them are pretty damn slow......

        Hearns like stated above.

        Paul Williams was fairly quick and didnt seem to have that general clunkiness that guys with his dimensions tend t have (that they seem to have at least lol) but didnt fight tall..ironically


        Wlad is actually pretty quick for his size.


        Is rjj eligible? Ali?

          Hearns

          Hilario Zapata

          Muhammad Ali(was very tall for a heavy in his era) the heavyweight champs before him were 5'10"-6'1"

            The best combination of speed and height/reach is in my opinion Tyson Fury.

            For meaningful punches though it is still Wladimir Klitschko.

                I wouldn't call Fury the complete package at all. I am not a Furyphile. But credit where it's due.

                It's just that his speed through not committing to his shots with all his immense weight allied with his long range happens to be among the best seen.

                A bit like that fighter there in your dp once was also

                I think a complete package is based around physical advantages of course but to an even more important extent usually punch accuracy and timing and reflexes.

                  If were talking about relative to their weight class than Chris Algieri should be mentioned

                    Speaking sub HW I feel Thomas Hearns deserves a mention or Michael Spinks.
