    Pretty short guy, but for his size, his arms are long

    Longest p4p reach?

    :patsch WTF are you talking about?

    Pacquiao is 5ft 6 1/2in with a 67in reach.

    Why the hell do you think that makes him have an especially long reach (to the point that he has apparently THE longest p4p reach) for his height?

    Marco Antonio Barrera was half an inch shorter than Pac, yet had a 70in reach.

    Marquez has the same 67in reach as Pacquiao, Morales had a 72in reach.



    Thread = Fail.

    Wlads a heavyweight so with the exception of the "fastest hands" the owness is on the little guys and their groupies to refute the rest...............which they can't.

    No Pac has average reach, but he's a high-risk guy and he jumps, leans, or lunges in from distance. He's able to cover alotta ground with his short reach. He's a fast-twitch guy so his in-and-out makes it effective but this also makes him vulnerable to elite counterpunchers.

    Marco Antonio Barrera had a 70in reach as a 5ft 6in superbantamweight champion in the 90s.

    Mike Tyson had a 71in reach as a 5ft 10in heavyweight in the 80s.

    Tyson's reach is longer in real terms, but in boxing terms Barrera had a bigger reach because his reach advantage over his sbw opponents on average would be massive compared to Tyson's reach disadvantage on average at hw.

    Thus, even if that idiot Vidic was somehow trying to be funny or something, the question has validity anyway. A 71in reach isn't much at hw, a 70in reach is a lot at sbw, despite 71 being greater than 70. This is how p4p arguments work. :good
