Anyone notice that tonight was the nail in the coffin for giant-heavyweight era?

Funny u said that !!! I texted a buddy in California who’s also a boxing fan and said the same thing !!!

 

Usyk is a true revolutionary.

 

Well I was referring to heavyweights so no weight cutting is required. Anyways my point being that guys like Bakole, Fury, Ruiz, Miller, and so on allow themselves to get much fatter than your "average " person, and it affects their career.

 

Oh definitely. Just fat slobs compared to proper heavyweight athletes.

 

Boxing is divided by weight classes, not height classes.

People who consider Wilder - who is 70 pounds less than Zhang, a 100 pounds less than Bakole and 55 pounds less than this version of Parker - a "giant" heavyweight still haven't figured it out.

Sebastian Fundora is 6'5" ... he has two inches on Agit Kabayel. But Kabayel is a 86 pounds heavier than Fundora.

Who has the advantage? The taller guy Fundora? No.

Most of the top heavyweights today are still pretty damn heavy.

 

Well said as usual. It gets tiring explaining the basics again and again
