How much of the Klitschko brothers success is due to their size?

    They use the style what fits their size which is keeping the man at distance and breaking him bit by bit and clinching when they get on the inside,
    reason therefor is they cannot go toe-to-toe with them as it takes longer and more accuracy to punch.

Wladmir's fist is almost as big as Haye's head lol. How much do you think their size aids them in their fights?
      All hating aside, they are very good fighters, but their size does play a huge roll in their dominance. They use it to their advantage, which they should. That said, not any fighter their size is as good as them.

        Agreed, and because of their size, they'd gas out fast fighting too high paced of a fight.

          The Klitschkos are so dominant because they have excellent boxing skills, amazing athleticism, very high boxing IQs, great punching power, etc.

          If size is all that matters, then the top heavyweights would be Marcellus Brown, Julius Long, Jameel McCline, Nicolay Valuev, Michael Grant, Tyson Fury, Ray Austin, Evgeny Orlov, Alexander Dimitrenko, Tye Fields, etc. All of them are bigger than the Klitschkos.

          Arreola KO'd McCline.
          Vitali dominated every round and KO'd Arreola.

          Chambers dominated Dimitrenko.
          Wlad dominated every round and brutally KO'd Chambers.

          Chagaev clearly beat Prime Valuev in impressive fashion.
          Wlad dominated every round and KO'd Chagaev.

          and there are many more examples.....

            This is what I meant, but it got out in a weird manner.
            This is most appropiate and fits the Klitschkos

            You could not expect Muhammad Ali to be a bodypunching toe-to-toe going killer either.
