    You've forgotten your own name now, how sad.

    I guess your screen identity has totally subsumed you -- predictable, but tragic.

    To revisit the statistics of the average heights, these are the average heights of the top heavyweights based on ring ratings going back to 1952 at 10 year intervals;
    (results are in cm as its an easier system to use with statistics)
    1952 182.5
    1962 186
    1972 188.8
    1982 190.09
    1992 190.9
    2002 189.63
    2012 192.82


    So as you can see height of the top 10/11 heavyweights has increased from ~6'0 to ~6'4 over the last 50 years.

    Good post. You should show Bremen this.
    So from 1982-2012, it's just 190 to 192.

    This statistics don't tell the full story though, in 1982 there was only one ranked boxer over 6'3.5. Whereas 2012 has 4 boxers over 6'3.5

    Yes it would, however a boxers weight isn't constant, and people would just start arguing about just being heavier because they are fatter.

    thank you. Not sure what that rant with random out of context stats to support the agenda is supposed to prove. If you count amateurs then Wlad's record is 192-9 compared to let's say Louis 116-7. Anyone can cook any number of "stats" to support anything but what really tells the story is this:
