Dwight Qawi Muhammad. Manny Pacquiao. Hagler was kinda a short MW. Listed 5'9 more like 5'8. More to come.
Ivan Calderon seems like a shorter guy everytime he fights. Yeah, Pac as well. Who can forget Baby Jake Matlala, the dude is just 4'10".
nah... just messing I would say Finito but his height is just ideal for his fighting weight. Pacquiao was bigger than his opponents pre LW but he was shorter and smaller than his opponents past LW. Arce was 5'4" or so. Tyson was small compared to his HW opponents. If Floyd would challenge JCC and sergio, he could be in the list.
What about Pernell Whitaker? He was clearly smaller in stature than many of his opponents, yet moved in and out on them easily, land, and not get cracked. I'd wager most of the fighters that get named in this thread have top notch footwork.
We talking about boxers that lie about their height? ODLH - 5'10? More like 5'8 JCC jr - listed as 6'1 probably more like 5'11 1/2 Pac - 5'5 IRL RJJ - 5'10 and 1/2, not 5'11 Mayweather - 5'7 not 5'8 1/2 sergio martinez - 5'9 not 5'10
I agree about every fighter you listed except De La Hoya. He was clearly taller than Shane Mosley in their fight who's listed at 5'9.
