Why does size matter?

It's well understood that size matters plenty at lower weights. Heavyweight size is much less a factor. Excessive size means you are slower and need to carry that weight over distance which is a strain on the body. Speed and skill usually trumps size. Boxing in the end is a very high skill sport not the WWE.

 

Yeah, it's because people don't have a clue what they mean when they say "pound for pound".
If the concept isn't completely applicable to two men of different (and officially measured) weights competing head-to-head in real life then it's meaningless.

 

its not an opinion you should be after.

its fact. Each human heart has limitations on what size of body it can service during hard cardio activity. No amount of belief or opinion changes that.

 

finally a person coherent,well said!! tyson was shorter, but being 5'10 and weighing 220 pounds compared with 6'3-6'5 210-230 pounds guys... tyson was "bigger"

 

read my answer and learn anything .dumb

 

Erm, Foreman / Frazier?

Both possessed similar power and skill levels, the weight advantage was negligible but Foreman's height and reach advantages played a massive role in the outcome.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

And you want F&D banned, despite writing the garbage you have above. atsch

 

By the way, it is the same subject. That's the point!

 

Fair enough.

 

How do you think a 6' 195lb version of Foreman does against Frazier? Just curious.
