          There is a myth that smaller fighters will always lose to a bigger fighter in the eyes of some. That is far from the truth. You hit a ****er on the sweet spot size wont matter.

                The only thing that matters is weight. Tall and lanky, or short, and stout you better be able to bring it with your style. Mike Tyson, Tommy Hearns, and the fitness freak B-Hop will tell you how it is.

                  Size is a huge factor in boxing, depending on how far you go up. Darchiniyans recent jump is an example of moving up in weight too quickly.
