I said he wasn't small relative to average HW, it doesn't mean he was average sized. He wasn't small next to Dempsey or Marciano, even if he was a...
Who said Corbett was very big? Certainly not me, or anyone else in this thread.
We also know that Corbett was very into fitness work, he likely cut down his weight like all HWs in that era did. I don't understand why you...
He didn't need a lot to put him down though. Max was a very powerful puncher, you don't need to be giant muscular man to punch hard. I view them...
We can't be certain, which is why you can't assume that Corbett weighed below 180 lbs. You can't be sure about 180+ lbs marks either, but we have...
I don't know, assuming any of them lands a powerful punch on Holmes chin, I'm quite positive that Holmes would get hurt and possibly dropped.
I doubt nothing would happen.
I said from fights which we have numbers from and I underlined that the data isn't very reliable. Did you read my post or not? You'd never call...
Corbett weighed around 185 lbs for majority of his fights (at least from which we have the numbers, which are not 100% reliable anyway). That's...
It has more to do with skin cuts, thus facial injuries. I don't think it gives huge boost in power.
You're talking about pressure, but it's not that important in boxing. Punching area is small anyway, the effect wouldn't be noticeable....
I don't think it would make any significant difference.
1. It doesn't answer my question. 2. Why do you assume that boxing stopped evolving since the 1980s? It doesn't make any sense. It's not stupid,...
I see peak Frazier beating any version of Ali, even 1960s version. Yeah, I think Louis from Walcott fight would dominate Norton. Different...
I don't agree, Frazier would always cause Ali a lot of problems. We can also say that Liston likely wasn't at his best anymore in their fights as...
