Anomalies In Ring Size

[The Old LefHook]

Ring for the Dubois-Bryan fight was crazy small.

I would like to know that size, since I am now recording all such ring anomalies I encounter.

Ring for the Dubois-Bryan fight was crazy small.

Camera angel, perhaps. It looked like a long, skinny rectangle. Sometimes you could see the ring was probably square. Small? Could have been. Hard-to-find but critical stat. Boxing announcers should give it routinely.

Joshua-Ruiz 2 22ft.

Thanks, Rock.

Maybe because the two fighters were so big, but seemed like there was nowhere to move for either.

Once Don Kind got the quotes for the price of the ring, and noticed they were more expensive the bigger they were, he ordered the child-sized one. I've seen more space in a phone box. Nash out.

I agree with Nash Out!

They usually never mention the ring size unless it became a point of contention. If you’ve been watching boxing since you were a kid you’d have seen some variety that’s for sure.
I’ve heard stories of some people seeing the tiny ring they were expected to fight in and just back out.
I think anything in boxing can be negotiated, and the ring size should be mentioned at all fights.
I remember Fury had them rip up the canvas and replace it with thinner foam vs Wlad before he would fight. He thought it was intentionally made extra squishy so he couldn’t move as quick. Fair enough. He got his way and won.
It’s the long winded, dancers, rappers, singers, entrances that annoy me. No way should you make your opponent wait for your ten minute plus corny entrance. I like it back when it was straight business time and they made it to the ring in a straight line with no stopping. Plus guys like Canelo when they are the challenger and demand to come in second ( like he did vs Bivol ) are being disrespectful to the sport. That’s some pro wrestling bull****.

Agreed on all points. I had to look to see if you were me.

Something on the subject.

[The Old LefHook]

Duran/Viruet ll, 18 1/2 Feet.
Griffith/Paret l, 20 feet
Joshua/Ruiz ll, 22 feet.

And this seems like a very small ring for Stiverne/Arreola.
