Little Guys Beating Big Guys

[Thread Stealer]

I'm not really talking about lower divisions, like Henry Armstrong beating guys a few pounds heavier, or Floyd Mayweather beating Carlos Baldomir and Oscar De La Fishnet, I mean guys beating heavyweights who had a HUGE size advantage.

Charley Burley, 5'9 and 151, beating the 6'3, 219 lb J.D. Smith. The Ring said Smith's face was beat to raw beefsteak.

The 6'1, 187 lb. Jack Dempsey destroying the 6'6, 245 lb. Jess Willard.

The 6', 210 lb. Chris Byrd (started career at LHW) beating the 6'7, 245 lb Vitali Quitschko.



I'm still waiting for someone to knock Nicolay Valuev out. Maybe Wlad and him can fight. I've never seen a 7 foot, 320 lb. fighter get flattened, but I really would like to see it.

Me knocking out my 6foot3(I am 5.8) friend with a single body shot.
All cause I could not reach his face.

Chagaev MD Valuev

Jones-Ruiz was a pretty large weight mismatch.

Chagaev MD Valuev

Probably the largest weight and height difference, since Chagaev was giving up something likea foot in height and 100 pounds in weight.

[MANGLER]

Tyson had a big frame, but height wise he was shorter than everybody.
