    That sounds like some tough sparring during your day.

      I was 5'9" 168LBS. He was about 6'3" 198. I'm a left hander. so he was a sucker for a lead left. He was fast and strong so I had to keep moving. We became teammates and friends. This was in the army.

        Sounds like you pulled a few Loma moves on him.

          Fought a guy that was like 6'10 or even above and was 135kg, that was the biggest person I've ever seen in real life not just boxing.

          I'm 6'4 105kg right now but was 94kg when we fought, and surprisingly i dropped him with an overhandright and the ref waived it off.

          He was big and strong but kinda slow and that was about it.

            Besides siablos momma?

            I don't remember really. There were plenty of big guys, Heavys, that I threw with through the years.

            I was a welterweight and I recall working with Dennis Andries.

            He couldn't handle the speed.

            He got me on the ropes, doe, and came in hard with a straight right. I got under it, and with his momentum, he crashed into me forcing me through the ropes and out of the ring. I was like wtf?

            The big guys could move you with the force in their shots but few had the same snap/crack (white flash) that Bronco had on his.

            I would rather take a shot from a Heavyweight than having to take them from Bronco.

            Speed and skill against the big guys. If you stand and throw with them, you could wake up on the heavybag...............Rockin'

                      He was 280 lb but was 5’7 so it was easy out jab him and keep him at a distance and get some good hooks in. It really depends on you and your opponent. The quality of yall boxing skills and measurements. Is he 6ft+ is he between 180-200 or 200-220 or 220+ is his arms long or short ? Quick hands ? Punching power ? His fighting style ?
