Corrales is 5'11 and I imagine there are plenty of other guys like that in Lightweight, I suggest you move down in weight.

Amateurs is different..

In amateurs they weigh in the day of the fight, so they can't drain themselves like they do in pros..

I bet if Corrales was amateur he'd probably fight at 141

Haha, times have changed. Have you ever seen the Cubans? Or the Russians? Those guys are HUGE for their weight. Most of the kids I saw in the lightweight division at the U19 Euro champ'ships in Estonia, were around 5'10". Only one guy below 5'8". The Swedish kid in lightweight was 6 feet.

wa u on about!

im a amatuer aswel, im basicaly 5ft 10 and walk around at 61kg, so those cubans aint exactly huge for their weight! unless ur calin me huge??? lol

and i aint no skinny lil **** either!-

i can **** out 100 press ups, and iv managed to bench 80 kg a few times aswel!

so being around 5ft 7 to about 6 ft is al normal!

There are plenty of fighters who have made good in the sport despite an extreme height disadvantage. Its not whats in the tape measure, it comes down to what is in the heart. Trust me when I say that short people can fight too.

I fought a guy that was 5-6 inches taller and had a 14 inch reach on me. Didnt stop me from taking him down, so dont let a height or reach advantage take you down before you even try.

Listen to your trainer and work hard. Everything else will work itself out in the end.

Good timing (from experience) will beat a longer reach, quicker hands etc. Look at Carmen Bassilio who was 5'6" and fought some of the toughest, best middleweights. Bassilio was as determined as they come.
