Is Floyd a genetic freak? How does he have a 72inch reach at 5'8

:shock:
:tired

Zab has 22 inch arm length, while Floyd has 26 inch arm length

The same as Wladimir Klitschko.*

 

Reach has not much to do with height. Some fighters have the same reach as height, others have very long reach compared to size just like some have very short reach compared to size (Tyson is a good example) Its just how they are build

 

BoxingGirl said that she can touch her 8 ft ceiling without jumping. I did the math.

 

Longer than Wlad? That cant be true. I posted a comparison picture of Mosley and Mayweather standing face to face and you can clearly see Mosleys longer arms 74" reach. So what Mosley has 28" arm length longer than Klitschko?

Exactly. Just look in the mirror and see for yourself. You look just like a ****ing chimp.

 

DLH also has longer arms than Floyd.

Its also where the upper body power from hooks comes from. And floyed knows it (as did a prime Mosely- look at the punches used to actually stop the chin heavy margo!!)

 

race does have to do with arm length. black people tend to have longer legs and arms.

 

Early malnurition. Or an in utero insult stunted his growth. True story........wait did I say true story? I meant true story according to my friend the gentics expert.....who also over values her own knowledge on genetics....

 

Don´t know what it is called but according to a theory, people from warm regions have thinner bodies with longer limbs and people from cold regions have thicker bodies with shorter limbs.

 

I am 5'8 with the same 72" span...

now thats a reach

 

It's an old theory. And Eskimos and Central Africans were almost always the two races compared. But it really doesn't hold up too well. Look at the indigenous people of South America, for example.

 

the indigenous people of South America are not completely native to that region. they were migrants from Asia.

 

this true. at least in my case. I have long arms. one of my friends with origins from a colder climate isn't thick or stocky, but he does have short limbs
