In boxing, is being tall overrated?

effectively utilizing what God gives you is the best advantage possible...

I can't recall any really tall fighter other than Lennox Lewis who had huge success. Primo Carnerra was pretty tall, but his name is and was mentioned with knowing grins, whenever championship caliber tall fighters are discussed.

Some trainers I have talked to have as much regard for tall fighters as NFL/AFL scouts have for tall running backs.

... or not?

Hey Bro height doesn't have anything to do on a fighter being under or over rated. Over rated is people, organization or an institution giving a fighter so much props and credit more that what he really deserves. HYPED. A case of his reputation being bigger than his real accomplishment.

Peace.
