wait a second... ray austin was 6'6 and had longer reach

[boxingking500]

it's cause he's taller than most (not all) of his opponents, and a lot of people think his style is predicated on having that type of physical advantage

it's kind of unfair to be critical of him for that though, because its not like quality 6'6" and up boxers grow on trees

but people always say... test him against a tall boxer, test him against someone his own size... yet they forgot ray austin...

the point of this thread, is that wlad is not just all size, but skill as well..

im not going to go in to if ray austin is a bum or not

but what im trying to say is that, people say wlad only fights people smaller than him, or people he outreaches...

ray austin was the same heigh as wlad, and had longer reach

but was destroyed by wlad

ray austin is a good journeyman , low level contender at one point.


people say a lot of things. don't make it true.
