    Easter-Shafikov would be pretty close.

    Lets wait and see. Canelo is small, compact and hit very well to the body with the left hook. I think he folds Smith in half pretty early.

    That is a huge difference. I think Dwight Muhammad Qawi vs Evander Holyfield and Michael Spinks is similar. Ali Funeka vs Yoan Guzman, Paul Williams vs Verno Phillips are around there but not as big.

    Dave Mcauley v Baby Jake Matllala for the Flyweight title is a good one,

    DM - 5'7 - 171cm
    BJM - 4'10 - 147cm

    Mark Breland was at least 6'2" fighting at Welterweight , just remember how much taller he was than his opponents and the 77" wingspan was incredible for a WW

    Kingsley Ikeke (6'5ish) was damn near a foot taller than Arthur Abraham (5'7ish) and still got dispatched quickly by Abraham.

    You nailed it, well done.

    Breland 6'2" fought for the vacant WBA title against 5'6" Harold Volbrecht.

    That's an 8" difference in a world title fight under Heavyweight.

    Yes for sure, but it is not going the distance, he will work his way inside Smith's sloppy jab and beat on him until he crumbles.
