Boxers You Seen IRL & Your Impression Of Them

[GrandpaBernard]

Ran by David Benavidez doing roadwork at the beach by my home earlier this week

He’s quite tall for a Mexican and slimmer than I expected

The big surprise he wasn’t running fast at all

i took a pic with juan diaz like 11 years ago in the lobby of the mgm arena....very small...im about 6ft1/2...190lbs...hes tiny but was very nice....i also took a pic with jeff lacy once at a winky wright fight...this was before calzaghe fight and he was also super nice and much bigger but smaller in person than i thought.....also walked by david haye...pretty good sized dude....guy i was probably closest too was zab also at the mgm...and he was so tiny...im thinking to myself "jesus i should be able to squash this guy but he could probably break my neck with a two piece" lol

I generally find a lot of boxers are much slimmer than expected, especially outside of heavyweight

I once saw Mike Tyson in an airport. I’m quite a bit taller than him anyway, but it’s kind of strange to see such an iconic larger than life figure with that reputation just pretty much looking like a regular size guy. Even though I already knew he’s not that tall etc. It’s still kind of strange


I’ve stood next to Joseph Parker, I’m pretty sure he’s not the 6’4” he’s billed as.

Your height means NOTHING without fighting skills. Just because you're taller doesn't mean you're a tough guy. You come off as a narcissist.

im pretty sure alot of these guys add an inch or two in the fight game...theyve been doing it for awhile...they do it in basketball and football too

i have a friend that used to train in mma...hes good friends with a guy thats been in bellator and on tv many times...hes brought him out to drink with him....that guy is listed as 5-11 170lbs most places...im a little over 6 ft and 190...hes def less body fat than me and more muscle....but ive stood right next to him and felt like i was towering over him

im fully aware of this chief...which is why i said "but he would probably break my neck with a two piece"...lol...im well aware...ive seen many smaller guys beat the living hell out of bigger guys in the streets...im not that naive...

Tyson - not that big.

[PunchMeIDareYou]

There's a picture online of Klitchscko standing next to that NBA fruit Dwight Howard and Howard towers him yet they're listed as rhe same height.

Eubank Jr. - He's beige, not black.

[STREET CLEANER]

Those who say that Tyson is not that big. He is not tall but he has a thick neck and the size of his hands is crazy.

I saw Danny Garcia like 4 months ago and he looked much bigger than I expected.
