    Size does matter. As by rule a good big man will beat a good little man. But when that fighter is exceptional this sport is fundamentally NOT about size. Hattons entire career was based on overpowering smaller super feathers and lightweights. He never spent time ad******g his game refining it or working on his boxing. Masterful tactiticans like Pac Cotto PBF etc do. Hence why they can have success as they move up in weight because there exceptional at what they do.

    Yeah, but doesn't the fact that you're on a down cycle of Sustenon 220, and about to finish up with a combination of Winstrol and Masteron along with a daily dosage of HGH somehow influence your decision regarding size?

    Size definitely matters a lot in a sport like boxing. I think it's given the importance that it deserves.

    Pac carries the weight very well, he's not the same guy he was at 106-116lbs zone. Honestly, you look at him now and you can't believe the guy was ever that size.

    He had 2" reach advantage over Hatton, who was the so-called naturally bigger guy. Watching the fight, you didn't see that extreme "size" difference they talked about.

    Check the measureables for most of Pac's fight, and he has not been at a huge disadvantage size, height, and reach very often... people just look at what weight he started at and assume he's tiny and just packing on weight.. but one look at Pac and you know that's not the case.

    If Wlad had no skill, he would be no better than Tye Fields. Chris Byrd is one of the most skilled HW's of recent years and Wlad outboxed him. Show me any evidence that Wlad'slack of bending at the waist hinders his performances and I will give you some cash. His losses certainly never came because of a lack of skill.

    Yeah, but Byrd doesn't have any punching power. Haye is one of the the hardest punchers at HW easily.

    He was the hardest puncher at cruiser, let's see how well his power carries over to HW. One fight at HW doesn't say much, Sam Peter knocked out 2nd tier HW's and was regarded as a menacing puncher, until he faced, well, Wlad the supposed glass chinned one....

    Certainly. Heavyweights routinely give large amounts of weight away to their opponents, but when a fighter at a lower weight is an ounce lighter than his opponent people are in tears.

    It is ridiculous.
