I hate when these tall ass fools live on oatmeal to make weight in a division where they can use their over all length. You guys have no idea how much of an advantage it is when you have huge height and reach advantage against a similar level fighter. It is much harder to fight an opponent that you have to punch upwards with and that has alot of reach on you because you have to stretch out your body alot. Both Campbell and Guzman got exhausted fighting this fucking tree because the punching to get to his mummy looking ass is exhausting. Trust me ive been in the ring with the same size difference. And even when working the mits and my trainer is making me reach out like a mofo to hit the mits its exhausting. Lets see what funeka would do skill 4 skill. You can get 2 fighters in the ring with the same exact conditioning and stamina, but I guarantee you that the one with the 7 inch height advantage will have the upper hand. I commend Guzman for the heart he showed and for even taking the fight with this redwood. I would love to see what Funeka could do against a tall welter weight like Williams, they are both the same except Williams actually moved up to a formidable weight(because he was forced to, apperanlt all the welter weights that were 8 inches shorter than him were cowards for not fighting him). Guys like this dont trust their skill level enought to pair it up against some one with out a reach disadvantage.

Welcome to Boxing, none of us can complain on this. You make the weight you can fight there. I'm sure that if we all boxed, we'd do the same too if we could.

Not all long fighters are capable of using their length to the fullest. Now I hear you because if a fighter knows how to fight tall that is a huge advantage.
I would not call him a fraud, just someone who knows how to use their advatage properly. You have to fight him on the inside, Campbell was able to to that and knocked him down a couple times, not every fighter is capable of overcomming that advantage though and you are right for guys of a similar level that is a tough task but speedy guys of a simlar level to less speedy guys also have a pretty large advantage.
