Big Motherf***ing Heavyweights

Some of these guys are tremendous and even today we have some 6'7 guy but a few have middleweight chins...Big bodies do nothing for the chin muscle

 

Not convinced Bruno would have seen the 6th punch to be honest, or if he had would probably have been doing the frozen robot at the time if he did.

 

Sandy Ferguson was pretty damn big for his time

 

Watching Tye "Big Sky" Fields go down like a rag doll to Monte Barrett seconds into their fight remains one of the funniest things I've seen.

****in' Julius Long and 90's HW Mike Evans... 6'10, 85' inch reach.

Don't think I saw Micheal Grant mentioned, or Corey "T-Rex" Sanders.

Alexander Dimitrenko, Alexander Ustinov, Timo Hoffman, Jorge Luis Gonzalez. All huge heavyweights.

 

No one creamed a prime Bruno early. He usually went in the mid to late rounds after he had gassed. Up to that point he was very dangerous with a great, powerful jab… the type of attack Dempsey had never faced.

 

It is misleading (and fun for some, I know) to suggest the timid, porous Bruno could beat Jack Dempsey; maybe in bodybuilding, in the spirit of the thread.

 

I haven't checked the "If you love Dempsey" thread yet, but until film shows me a Wills with better skills than Dempsey, I'm with Mike Tyson and Sam Langford in saying Dempsey was the best of his and many eras.

Anyway, Bruno is not the one to expose the Dempsey fraud.

Mike the Giant White.

 

They have always been there.

In the 1840s, Charles Freeman was 6' 10.5'' and weighed over 300 lbs. He seems to have been fast for a man of his size, and a brilliant all round athlete.

 

Can someone find that and get a screencap? All I remember was jacks shoulders being about as big as Lyle's body

 

There is an undefeated South African 7 footer based in Texas. China also had a guy who's 7 feet tall turn professional.
