Is it fair for a 6'3 tall man to fight a 5'6 man because they're the same weight?

    Answer this question for me...

    Since when did boxing have height limit on weight classes?

    Is it fair for Manny to fight guys who are much slower than him? Williams can fight at 147 if he can make the weight.

    Martinez and Williams are too tall for Manny, but Yuri and DLH were ok for Manny.

      Paul Williams would be included in an argument for same day weigh ins, though. Dude has the potential to outweigh Pac by 15 pounds in the ring.
      Not really though... he came in at 156 for his MW fight against Serg.

      The guy is skin and bones... he doesn't really blow up like these other fighters.

      I bet you Cotto comes in heavier as a welterweight on fight night than Williams did as a welterweight... actually I gaurantee he does.

            Stamos won't, He knows he has a chance to shine in a good comedy with me being the main actor.

              Just FYI, Sergio is listed at 5'10''. I really don't know where you're getting your height measurements at but a 3-inch height difference looks about right between them.

                  What fight were you watching? Williams came in at 166 for the fight against Martinez.

                  Cotto never weighed that much in any of his bouts

                    Williams came in to the ring at 165 against Margarito (who came in at 162), a fight that was contested at the 147 limit.
