      I'm talking about arm reach from shoulder to fist like the way HBO does it.The old way really don't tell you as much one guy could have wide shoulders but t-rex arms.But yea there both listed at 72 abouts.Another thing GG is listed at 5-11and a half and Eubank 5-11 when they faced off GG was at LEAST an inch or better taller.

          Froch is about 6'1 and Groves was a good 1-2 inches shorter.

          Don't know why Groves has been transformed into a slow plodder in the public's mind. That's just not true. He's not as good as what he was, but he's still and he's still powerful.

            Thats not true. Wingspan makes your reach longer because of how punches are thrown.

              Not necessarily depends on a guys stance.If he is more square he don't get any added length.And even if your not square you only get the benefit from the neck to end of shoulder as rest of back don't come into play.

                Anybody who would call him a plodder just has not seen him or dksab.And I agree GG seems to be listed right 5-11 or so but CEJ is only about 5-10
