Big or Tall fighters with great inside skills

Chico

 

Lennox Lewis had a very solid inside game with his grabbing/wrestling tactics and huge right uppercut (what he did to Grant in close was memorable.)

He certainly preferred to keep his opponents at a distance, but he could be devastating at close range too.

 

Eusebio Pedroza

 

Carlos Zarate worked fantastically inside. He was a great body puncher and could uppercut worth either hand.

 

Alexis Arguello
Joltin' Jeff Chandler

 

What he did to Grant was a certainly not Queensberry rules though.
I think he scored 4 KDs, and 3 of them were blatant fouls.

He was perhaps lucky the referee didn't know or care about the rules.

I'd say he had a good "inside game" too (as does Wladimir). He wasn't much of a inside fighter though.

 

Floyd Mayweather Jr.

 

..sandy saddler.....because he was so tall and slim he knew his opponents would want to come inside on him....so he became a great...and rough...infighter.....and they didn't stay in there long.


as a middleweight ezzard charles was tall at six feet and was an excellent infighter even that early in his career. this came in handy when he got o the higher divisions and gave away height and reach himself.

 

Erik Morales

 

Riddick Bowe.

 

Eder Jofre was a bit tall for his weight and was great on the inside......

 

This sometimes can be read as tall fighters who don't properly exploit their advantages.

 

Thomas Hearns landed some good stuff to the body.

 

Riddick Bowe, Riddick Bowe, Riddick Bowe... yeah, I know we are all supposed to rave over his inside game, but it was partly this same game that caused him to absorb huge shots and be done by 29. A six foot five guy with 82 inch reach fighting down to his opponents limitations. Bravo.
