    Apparently it does not necessarily translate to being a better boxer.

    Even Bruno looked a bit scrawny next to Jumbo Cummings (also, check out the robot dance Bruno does at the very end of round one when Cummings hits him with the right hand, arguably the most out of it I've ever seen a fighter while still on their feet).

    It's the same in any weight class, Muscle bound bodys can be a disadvantage.

    See Calzaghe VS Lacy and Pavlik VS Miranda.

    Roy Jones was the exception, Muscular body and explosive speed, a pure athlete.

    always liked the tall lanky built. ali, lewis, klitchko.

    although a 5'9 250 pound james toney is quite amusing to look at.

    Tyson at about the time he had the fight with José Ribalta, it just goes to show that height is not everything, something we hear only too much with the Klit Brothers dominating these days. He was in the best shape and condition to fight any heavyweight of any height back then.

    Never seen that. Bruno was saved by the bell. He was totally out on his feet.

    Holyfield in the mid 1990s, even if it was aided by anabolic steroids and HGH.
