    Difficult to argue against such an airtight case presented on behalf of Chuck, the man, the myth, the legend. Therefore, I won’t. :cool:

    That’s damned near 2 full meters.

    No wonder he had an edge over Razor Ruddock in Canada … he was built for the metric system.

    :D


    I was voting for what I think the judges would say, but from ringside I think Dave would be robbed!

    I don’t know where you’re getting that.

    We don’t hate Jaco for being a full 6-foot-6. We just envy it.

    I love Dave Jaco and especially for being 6’6”. The man was smart too. He knew how to fall when he got hit without hurting himself. He’d beat the shlt out of Marciano

    Since some are being heightists, what do reckon if this fella had turned his hand to boxing?

    At just age 12, he already had Primo Carnera beat for stature by a good few inches.

    In this corner..weighing in at a svelte 480 lbs, The Alton Avalanche.

    Yep. He’d be the heavyweight champion until his death

    Jaco beat Ruddock... Marciano has no chance against Ruddock. Therefore, what chance does Marciano have vs Jaco?

    I’m a huge Jaco Fan. And Wepner and Crabtree fan. I watch marathons of their fights and then get bored as hell when I turn on clips of Ali, Leonard, Mayweather, and Hearns…. God those guys sucked
