Oh...than I see why they do armlength instead now..
I measured my arm length with a closed fist from the elbow and it was 25

i believe they measured reach like a persons wingspan. from finger tip to finger tip and across the back. i remember sugagr shane had a longer reach before because he has a wide body

Yeah, that's how they measure reach. But it's incorrect to measure that way, because if you got really broad shoulders, you have short arms, but still big reach. Normally the length from fingertip to fingertip is exactly as long as your height.
In reality, if a guy has a thin body, he will have long arms. And if you have a wide body/shoulders, you will have shorter arms if both are at the same height.
That's why they now measure the arm-length only

lol, yeah hey mooks what do you think about tito vs Wright?

Wright's gonna get knocked out. His D is all wrong for this one. Tito's left hook ain't nothing like Mosley's but he don't know that. He prolly figured Tito also started at welter so how strong can he be at midddle right? WRONG WRIGHT LOL

I wouldn't be surprised.

I wouldn't be surprised.

I think Wright deserves a little more respect than that

I don't knack Winky's skills, I just don't like his stationary style against Tito. He said during the press conference that no one really pressed forward against him because his opponents were somewhat intimidated. Won't happen with Trinidad.
