Can a guy 5’7 who started boxing at 18 be a light-heavyweight contender ?

Is it possible for a guy at that age to atleast be a contender in the light-heavyweight division?

Dwight Qawi did it, all the way to HW.

Id have thought so. Weight divisions are weight related, not height.

if he has long arms it will help his a lot to achieve contender status

A good style unique for every body type. Boxing isn't Kenpo Karate.
