    I have zero insecurities hence the reason i said in a previous post on this thread i wouldnt spar anyone who is 5ft as i woud feel its a liberty

    My friends brought it up to me because i box if i thought a minimum weight would be able to hurt me.
    If that's true then I apologize.

    I will say that this is one of the worst threads ever. Congratulations

    And for your next thread you will discuss and prove to us that the moon closely resembles a circle............... Rockin'

      I would be willing to bet that a lot of the people on here have never been in a ring in their lives and dont understand how important height, reach and weight actually are when you are in the ring.

      Esp if your a 5ft minium weight vs a 6ft cruiser. Skill leve is a factor but there becomes a point that with that physical advantage? and a few years of training that it becomes very hard for the guy @ 5ft no matter who he is and how skilled he is. if the 6ft guy understands distance, timing and defence he isnt getting ko'd unless he gasses or has a china chin

        He'd combo you to the balls and you'd lose consciousness from the pain.

This is what happened to me sparring with my old trainer Fito Ramos, a panamerican medal winner, an amateur with 300plus fights. I had like 50 pounds on him at the moment and had decent skills for an amateur and was a gym rat at the time.

          Just wanted to give you an idea on how it would end up!
          this comment i can appreciate as there is reasoning behind it

            Like i said, if you've never been in with a top pro you cant understand the diffrerence in skills. They'd wear you down, not hurt you with one punch. You would simply be beaten to the punch every time. Its not meant as a slight my man.

              5ft and about 108 yes

                Instead of dragging Calderons name through the mud let's line you up against that 5'6", 165lb ******.

                Da beast vs Hypothetical 5'6", 165lb ******,
