I didn't say every fighter taller than another fighter especially in different divisions is bigger. Yall reaching and I don't know why.
I can comfortably say if you're 5'11 fighting at 154 that you could comfortably move up to 168 without a problem. Since the average height is very close.
A lot of scenarios people jump 2 weight divisions but are usually shorter than their opponent. In this case Charlo is 3 inches taller. It won't be a hard jump and it will be a competitive fight. I'm sure if Canelo loses the narrative will be lost to a 154 lb fighter. But if he wins it will be " he beat a 154 lb fighter. Oh well.
I can't wait for the commentators to mention the significant size difference.

Seriously? "You can't make me!" Well obviously no one is forcing me, as we're voluntarily on a forum. But it doesn't look like I'm the only one who shares similar sentiments. Really feel the need to defend Canelo this hard eh?Comment

You tried so hard to prove a point lol.
Every weight class has an average height. The higher weight classes have taller fighters. It is common sense. It's not impossible for a smaller fighter to win in a bigger division. This is exactly what Canelo is doing.
The average 168 lb fighter is 6 ft tall. That means Canelo will most likely give up 4 inches of height every fight making him the smaller fighter. Even the average 154 lb fighter is 5'10 1/2. So he gives up size vs the average 154 lb fighter. Charlo has the height of a middleweight and Canelo has the height of a welterweight. These are averages.
Jermell was not going to continue shrinking down to 154. It's understood that Canelo has a large frame and power to make up for his lack of height. It still does not negate he is smaller than the average fighter from 154-175.
What point are you proving? So a tall lanky fighter lost to a shorter one. Oooooo s***! Damn. Great point! That definitely debunks the statement that your height usually determines your weight class. Good job
You're just bias. 20 people saying the same ****** thing doesn't make it accurate. Look at the articles from respected news sources. Some have writers with differences in opinions, but majority understand Canelo no matter how thick he is is a small 168 lb fighter. It's because he's 5'8. Height plays a role in what division you fight in. Because height can affect how much you weigh. It's physics.
He's a short 168 lb fighter. So he gives up size in every fight. And now he's fighting a fighter 3 inches taller. Canelo is the smaller man. You could say he's stronger, that doesn't mean he's bigger. Anthony Joshua is most likely stronger than Fury. But Fury is bigger. Get it? Of course not.
If height has nothing to do with any division, when will midgets get in the ring and fight welterweights? I'd love to see it. 4'10 midget who lifts 250 lbs vs tall lanky 5'8 welterweight. Height plays no role!Comment

Weight classes are measured in weight not height. He was born with a very thick and dense body, and that's why he's fighting at 168-175, i don't have to try to make a point, because all combat sport have "weight" classes not height classes, you're the one trying hard to make a point, my guess is a build in excuse for canelo, I could be wrong of course. And that average height that you came out with, doesn't impact the division, it's just another bit of trivia. I mentioned a few greats of the past, short athletes from 160 to heavyweight. And you really blind and deaf if you think canelo has gave up any advantages. So if canelo lose that's the excuse, he's too short for the division?
Just a year ago he was running scared from Jermall Charlo. Then he takes the fight and it's " oh he's fighting Jermall after a long layoff and mental issues ". Now it's " he's fighting a 5'11 small 154 lb fighter.
The average height does impact the division lol. Its rare for guys much shorter than everyone in the division to be successful. This fighter has to be special. The top guys are usually prototypical heights for the division.
Tyson was special although he was short for a heavyweight. Canelo is special although he is short for a super middleweight. Pacquiao was special although he was short for welterweight.
And all those fighters when fighting a bigger taller fighter who was special they lost! Pacquiao lost to Mayweather and was slept by Marquez. Canelo lost to master boxer Bivol. And Tyson lost to Lewis and Holyfield. Him and Holyfield were close in weight but Holyfield was 4-5 inches taller. Giving him the size advantage.
Haven't you heard the saying " a good big man beats a great small man ". You guys think it's easy for him to beat these guys towering over him. That's not how it works. He's just a special fighter. Special fighters usually only lose to other special fighters. Key word usually. We will find out how special Jermell is come fight night.
Canelo is smaller than Jermell. And height usually determines which weight class you fill out in. It's a lot of feminine energy in here trying to find the exceptions in small percentages. That's what females do. Put the weed down cause it's giving yall high levels of estrogen. Go lift weights instead.

It's all about the Canelo bias is what's obvious. It almost never the case that someone will state the shorter fighter is the bigger man! It's only significant because it's Canelo and you all are a bunch of nut huggers who want to criticize his every move.

I didn't say this you did. Tyson was a shorter heavyweight though. And as you see only bigger heavyweights beat him. They all were taller than him.

Get off his sack and stop with this feminine nonsense.Comment

I guess Canelo got the chance to grow into 175 huh? No one cares. Charlo is bigger. There won't be excuses. If Canelo loses you will say he was exposed. If he wins he's a weight bully. Although he's an undersized SMW
