    i disagree at 5'10'' he could easily be 147 no worries with out looking skinny. But then again some people are just light for there frame and build.

    160 would be very average at 5'10 in boxing terms for height and weight.

    agree. there is no "should be" as far as height and weight go. i'm only 5'11 and weigh over 200 pounds. at first glance at those numbers lots of people would just think i was fat and out of shape. i am 31 and maybe in the best shape of my life, i just have a big frame and i have thighs like Cro Cop.

    Exactly. One of the best boxers in the country is from Montana and is a 6' 132lbs boxer.

    The amateur heavyweight champ in this region is way shorter than I am, I'd guess around 5'7" or 5'8". Very wide build, big bones, based on his height some people might expect him to be pretty light but it'd be quite hard for him to get that far down in weight given his frame.

    Mate its a bit hard to tell you how good the guys judgement of your weight was without actually seeing you.
    But i would think if your 54kg at 5'7'' you prob have good height for your weight. You would be tall for your division.

    yeah that little **** Mike Tyson was really a middleweight, fat ****. How about that Corrales fella, should've ate more steak then he would be his proper weight. You tell em inferno. Could you also please tell us how much a 5'4,5'5,5'6,5'7,5'8,5'9,5'10,5'11,6,6'1,6'2,6'3,6'4,6'5,6'6,6'7,6'8,6'9 fighter should weigh? I know it might take abit of time but not everyone is as intelligent and educated as you, we need to know the correct weights for our heights. Don't worry about explaining body types, everyone knows that that shits a myth, everyones the same basically. Thanks.
