It says 5 ft 1 reach on boxrec... That CANT be right... I guess it can, but thats the shortest arms I've heard of a boxer having if true.
T-rex indeed. He has small lil arms...will be a big factor in this fight with Lomanchenko smashing that jab in his face... Russel won't look so fast when the only punch he can get off is a missing jab...surely will have to close the distance and maybe even get inside on Lomanchenko.
He does have a very short reach. It's one of the reasons why he has such good hand speed his fist doesn't have to travel too far. He'll need good foot work to get in to range to let those fast hands go.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------> that should just about cover it.
Short arms, and maybe that's why his hand speed is 2x of Loma and other fighters hes faced. Styles make fights, and as we have seen with Loma's fights against ramirez and Saildo, a fighter doesn't need long arms to score against Loma who falls into and gives up any height/reach advantage when he fights. Russell has short arms, but they are plenty long enough to put many lumps on Loma's ****** head.
Your just bitter you can't come up with a quality nickname for loma , like Gary "the thalidomide kid " russell
Your nickname is weak and too complicated to be a success. A good nickname should be like the hookline for a good song; Easy to remember, rolls off the tongue with ease and catchy. Take your nickname and it if used in a song the song would be weak and unsuccessful. Take Loma's nickname, ****** Ass, and you see it has all the above ingredients to make up the hookline for a great popular song. "Do the ****** Ass..<Eat that Jab> See his knees buckle as he gets weak in the knees Do the ****** Ass...<Eat another jab> Russell is tagging him as he please.. Do the ****** Ass..<Get off's that canvas Boii> Do the ****** Ass.." Short, simple, descriptive and easy to remember. :good
