is that the worse combination for boxing? something like 6"4 and 74-75 reach. i mean,you cant really jab,and you are too tall to fight like tyson or frazier... was there any good boxer with proportions like this?
i dont know of any but short arms are an advantage as your arms have less to travel and you will throw punches faster as your tall smaller fighters find it hard to hit you in the head dosent matter your physicallitys if you stick in and train you can be a good boxer
to be fair chuck wepner wasnt a world beater ticar i cant think of a tall fighter with a short reach who was great but you just prove me wrong ticar and be the best
hehe thanx mate. can you recommend me a guard?i think double deck like sturm and abraham is a good solution...
Not sure about his reach, but Diego Corrales never really used his despite his length and did rather well.
do what you do natural and listen to your trainer thats the best advise on defense i will give you as i havent seen you fight and see what your good at but practise using your size on the inside and holding and as RDJ says alot of tall fighters margarito, paul williams, corrales were tall and didnt use long reach so watch them even hopkins to a certain extent as was tall but an expert up close
