Too much size discrepancy at heavyweight

He's not fighting in this era which is even bigger than the one he was in, imagine a 38 year old Tyson in the ring with Joshua. He would have been brutally knocked out.

 

Super Duper heavyweight. Which is prob the only chance Miller has of becoming a world champ.

 

Didnt alot of people have Povetkin up on the cards when he got stopped? So the much smaller man was technically better and was winning against one of the best giants. I think maybe its not a case that they are too big its just we have a lack of good shorter guys.

 

True but it could be argued that if they were the same size Povetkin would be better than Joshua, I'd put money on the Russian if they were

 

Povetkin showed if anything, a smaller fighter has a chance with that style. Even at his age he had success against AJ. things like that put to bed the theory that these giants beat any smaller fighter of past history. Tyson of late 80s would have destroyed last nights AJ imo, thats not being funny about it.

That's why I say a max weight of 220lb. Tired of watching guys like Stiverne out of shape a gassing by the 4th round. At 220, you will get guys that are big and in shape. If a guy is 6'7" wants to kill himself making weight, so be it, but he won't have a the weight and strength advantage. I have no interest in watching exhausted giants stumbling around the ring, just like I have no desire to watch midget wrestling!

 

This is good idea

 

Yess! Only him and sumó wrestlers

 

Power to him!

 

even though the rules are the rules, its kind of BS to absolutely murder guys who come in 2 pounds heavier then their opponents(any other class other then HW) while its totally fair and fine for heavies to fight guys 20-50 pounds havier.

 

There is no weight limit in the HW division. So how good you are p4p is irrelevant.

Guys like Wlad, Joshua and Fury are so huge they dont even look like humans. I almost never see people in real life that ****ing gigantic.

Which is why Usyk is going to box their ears off with ease. Hes not so massive that hes overencumbered by his own size. Fury punched himself in the face during a fight. Wlad, Joshua gas after throwing 30 power punches.

It's going to be so easy for Usyk.

 

In real life if I have to fight I'm using something that gives me a little extra. Yea I'm only 158 pounds. But how does staring down a glock look like?

Luckily I've never had to use it. But if I go into a rough area and somebody tries to rob me or antagonise me they STFU real quick when they see my glock 17 pointed at their chest.

 

Lennox, Wlad, Vitali, Bowe, Joshua, and Fury have lost a combined grand total of two fights to fighters under 225. One of those losses involved an injury in a fight the larger fighter was winning, and the other involved a man crashing into the ring mid-fight with a giant fan.

Size is not the only factor, but it's damn sure a big one. The margin of error is way, way less for smaller men vs the best big men.
