    No.

    The weigh-ins needs to be moved to the afternoon of fight day though.

      No.... Height doesn't equal skill

        If you make weight, you make weight. It's likely that the height advantage would prove to be a disadvantage anyway.

          I'm surprised its been mostly no's considering how much crying PWill and Donaire have gotten for "challenging little guys"

              Interesting thought.

              I don't really think height matters that much honestly, I'm 5'11 and I spar dudes who are 6'3-6'4 all the time and I don't find it much of a chore.

              Anyone remember Dwight Muhammed Qawi? Dude was 5'5 and fought as high as HW, even against Big George!

                Excellent comment! This is exactly what I think too.

                      We do need to find some way to stop HW boxing God Tye Fields from his dominant reign of terror on the sport.....he is just too big for other to compete.
