Results are more important than size when evaluating knockout power. Evidence points to Zhang being a huge hitter even though he does not have a...
Super middleweights/light heavies of that era were equally effective at knocking out giants. There's little on Baers record against big men to...
Trumped by common sense rankings. There is nobody Wilder beat aside from Stiverne and Ortiz for whom you can make a reasonable argument for being...
You can't make a reasonable case for more than 2 being top 10 heavyweights. Stiverne and Ortiz are the only ones with a reasonable case for being...
Sure, but to believe those guys were remotely comparable to more modern SHWs you would have to believe that guys like Gunnar Barlund, Savold,...

Certainly some seem to be better in some aspects like defensively, I don't see Bivol getting dropped by Braddock or Galento for example.
If it was that easy I'd expect him to be easy pickings for plenty of highly skilled middleweights/light heavyweights and cruiserweights who are...

Cant see why people are dismissing Alvarez. He certainly brings some advantages to this matchup and isn't significantly outsized. It's okay to...
Super heavyweights of that period routinely got dominated by guys the size of light heavyweights who were totally unexceptional so I hardly think...
Zhang's best win is probably Joyce who in shape is the same size as Zhang. Zhang's weight advantage was mostly fat.
Ruddock, Tucker, Mercer are nobodies in terms of accomplishments but we see them getting picked over Dempsey, Marciano, Langford, etc pretty...
The guys who stopped Louis were the size of today's light heavyweights. I don't know how we can infer from such fights how he takes shots from...
