It would help if I could see how Foreman fights as a 6' 195 lber. That would be a different Foreman entirely only the same in name! Why do you have to make up imaginary fighters in order to make your point?
Well then tell me the "fact." At what weight is size no longer an advantage, and possibly even a disadvantage? This should be good.
The point has already made to you over and over again using common sense and basic boxing logic. And you completely ignored a post where I used real life examples (Willard, Carnera, Baer).
It's all boxing. Size has always mattered. It's only sentimental nostalgia and fantasy that lets people believe that size is irrelevant if the smaller fighter is "great" and has fought in the heavyweight division.
Which fighters regarded as greats did Willard, Carnera, and Baer beat because of size? Absolutely none.
Of course it is all boxing. Why would we be on this forum if it wasn't about boxing? By your logic I could be talking about upcoming fights in this section and it would still be valid because it is boxing after all. There is no specific weight where size starts to become irrelevent. Only less relevant until it is insignificant enough to even be called an advantage. As weight increases size becomes less of an advantage and when you get to an undefined point which depends on the fighter it ceases to become relevant. I asked in my question earlier does 10 lbs make more of a difference at heavyweight or flyweight? If a guy 112 lbs is fighting a 122 lb fighter that is going to be harder to overcome rather than a 200 lb guy fighting a 210 lbs guy. Why? Because that 10 pounds makes up a greater percentage of the fighters total weight at flyweight rather than a heavyweight.
So why don't you ask a more meaningful question then: What's more of a difference, the 8 pounds that separate a junior-feather from a junior-lightweight or the 45 pounds that separate a Rocky Marciano from an Ike Ibeabuchi?
Yes. Skills aren't everything if you don't have the conditioning, chin, and power to back them up. Lack of skill can be made up for with conditioning, a good chin, and a great punch. The degree to how well a fighter has to be condition, chin, and punching power varies though depending on the opponent.
That doesn't even make any sense to the topic lol. What don't you get? 10 lbs at a lighter weight is a bigger difference than 10 lbs at heavyweight. Do you deny this? We aren't turning this into a debate about h2h fantasy fights. Just because you can divert a thread from the original topic (or at least try) doesn't help your argument in any way.
why do you ask an single weight figure for each of the 7.4 billion human hearts on earth? why do you envisage that any of the 7.4 billion would be happy to have their hearts hacked out and weighed after carrying out cardio tests? never write "this should be good" when u've not thought through your post. Becasue sure its good for someone, but that someones never you.
I suggest to anyone who doubts that size is a significant factor to step in the ring with someone 30 pounds heavier. It ain't a barrel of laughs.
