    Height & Weight!! Does some tall fighters have an unfair advantage????

    There have always been ''giants'' in the different weightclasses like Hearns, Williams etc..

    QUESTION: Is it unfair that some of these tall fighters starve themself to make weight and then puts on bunches of pound right before the fight, so they have a clear advantage in the ring?

    What's your take on that matter????

          if they can make the weight......they can fight there.

          look at hop. he's more natural at 175 but he sacrificed through diet and training to make 160. it was best for his career.
