    I mean look at Vitali and Wlad.... Foreman was big... these guys are comething else.

    Also shout out to Tyson Fury... he's a gangly fellow but he is what 18 stone lol?

    I think it's bedtime.

      Honestly... it would be like Vitali fighting Duddy. Frazier was not big at all.

        Also I think Froch would outpoint Frazier or Ali in a close contest over 15 rounds. Yesteryear fighters are really small.

        Not a lot of people realise this but the 'foot' was redefined in 1980 so when heights of Ali and Frazier are listed they are actually 30% less than what you may think because of this reclassification.

        There's knowledge for you.

          If you really think boxing is about size only then I'd have to say you are misguided.

          Would Michael Grant beat a prime Evander??

            Evander Holyfield is the P4P GOAT but he was too small to ever fight at heavyweight. A lot of his title wins (all of them really) were robberies of the other boxer. He just wasn't big enough.

              Ok, you didn't answer the question.

              I'll give another example, see if you can address this one directly...

              Tyson Vs Valuev?

                  Valuev would beat Tyson to a pulp. He's far too big. Tyson would have to jump to punch him in the head. Plus the fight would be held in Germany so there is no way Valuev would loose on points.

                  Actually I'm not joking when I say I'd pick Valuev over almost any Heavyweight in History bar big George because of Foreman's excellent left uppercut.
