Nunn was 6'3 but so was Breland who fought at welterweight (and who you already mentioned).


Hugo Pineda was a very tall light welterweight.

Panama Al Brown might've been "inch for inch" the tallest of all, he was nearly 6 feet tall, held the world title at bantamweight and also fought at flyweight early in his career when weigh-ins were held at the day of the fight.

Cabellero is the biggest p4p.

6'4 Guillermo Jones, now a cruiserweight champion, used to fight at welterweight and light middleweight (competed for the WBA title against Laurent Boudouani).
