Ok PAC is clearly smaller than Algieri...about 4 inches shorter, 6 inches less in reach.
The thing is, we are use to seeing PAC being the small guy. Every single fight, he's usually giving up height, reach, and weight advantage to his opponent. Regarding weight, sometimes he gives up 10-15 lbs on fight night. That's huge. That's what partly makes PAC remarkable.
Only guy that he has faced recently that has similar physical traits is JMM.
I personally think height and reach are huge advantages in boxing. Take the NBA for example, a few inches is huge. Arm wingspan, big hands, height, length ...ex. Kawhi Leonard was able to disrupt Lebron James in last year's finals. ..A 6-11 Power Forward with length is routinely labelled as a mismatch for a 6-9 tweener forward.
In boxing, similarly, height, reach, weight is huge. What's your opinion?
