    And Dubois is "only" 6'4 apparently. Is the age of the giant heavyweights over? It seems fighters are finding more and more ways around the height disadvantage in the heavyweight division. Or there just isn't any good big guys around atm.

    So was George Foreman, Muhammad Ali, Ken Norton and Larry Holmes. Louis was 6 ft 2.

    Its almost as if the people pretending Usyk was Sam Langford were full of it.

    Just being devils advocate here but Parker and Kabayel would be among the biggest HWs around in the 70s and 80s. They're only "small" compared to guys like Fury and Zhang.

    You are missing out Dubois, who would knock the stuffing out of Parker and Kabayel. He is 6'4''.

    Looking forward to Opetaia moving up I think he would be great fun and hopefully he gets past Zurdo.

    What a fight Opetaia and Kabayel would be.
