6'5" 235lb Jess Willard was considered a "giant" lol

[Earl-Hickey]

They had pictures of this man posing like Andre the giant when he's basically just Kubrat Pulev size

And Willard didn't even have no skills

Fury is 6 foot 9 with slick skills, athleticism for days, unbelievable boxing ability

[Guest]

Yeah, people were definitely smaller back then.

[Godsfly]

Jess was bigger then ruiz, chisora, whyte, parker, pulev (yes he was bigger then pulev btw) some of those guys may have been more fatter then him like whyte but overall bone mass he was certainly bigger then them and in greater shape......in these days Willard is a bigger heavyweight let alone talking about in the past.....

[Quicksilver*]

That is big for now, but in those days most heavyweights were around or under 6' and weighed under 200.

[SN!PER]

Jack Dempsey was basically the size of Kovalev and chopped Jess down like he was an old oak tree.

**** Butkus was 6’3” 245 lbs, was considered a beast back in the 1960s. Athletes have gotten bigger.
