    Except when the big man is old and no longer great. Cases include Charles vs Louis, Toney vs Holyfield, Spinks vs Holmes, etc.

    You can't prove that statement right or wrong...

    There are bigger factors that differentiate who will win a fight. Skill, Style....Size comes further down the order.
