    The guys with the large hands are usually the guys who drain 15+ lbs for fights. Naturally bigger dudes but shrunken to an extremely low weight class.

      To clarify, was it your observation that the fighters with bigger fists fared better in the ring that those of smaller fists?

          Although they were made of stone, Duran too, had small fists...

            Looking at the picture of AS and Sechew Powell produced this thread. Powell's hands are massive. Even though Powell isn't a great boxer, it made me think.
            From this tale of the tape Mayweather vs Hatton, fist: Floyd 8 inches, Ricky 11 1/2 inches. De La Hoya was listed as 9 inches.
