    Marciano and Quawi made there shortness work for them to an advantage, so did James Toney as he moved up. Lennox and Vlad and Vitali used there height well, also Tommy Hearns...Ali fought well on his toes and used his height well...Dundee said Ali was only 6"2 but he made him use it all and many claimed he was taller
