Imagine if Tyson as tall as Valuev??

Poor guy would have to bob and weave everytime he walked through a door. Imagine the trouble he would have with his spine later in life. I'd like to see Kevin Rooney sort that one out.

 

he will have to be slower , and i even doubt if he could have the same proportions in that height for structural strength reasons. i too asked this type of questions in the past , but structural strength (again) is the answer for them all. the great answer i got was : think of blocks , a building made of blocks , then inflate this building by scaling , which means : increase all dimensions by the same scale (proportion) , hence the building will be longer , broader and taller. but gravity works in the vertical dimension alone , so despite the building's increased width and length , every block which now has more neighbors to his sides , will also have now more neighbors above it and will experience more vertical pressure caused by more blocks put above it.
the neighbors in his sides will not ease that pressure by a slight bit.
increase the number of blocks above it enough , and the block will crumble under that pressure. that's why a different technique of building will be needed to allow the same structural strength . this argument also works for car engines , people's bodies , tendons , and even has its less physical variants such as : how big can a state be and remain stable.

 

Imagine a 7 foot Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquaio

 

imagine if i was 7 foot tall with a 90 inch reach. speed of manny pacquiao. power of earnie shavers. a jab like ali's. hooks like frazier. uppercuts like tyson. the durability of ali.a defense like floyd jr. i think i could be a threat to this current division. of course the likes of vitali will still be a huge threat because to some vitali is the greatest boxer that has ever lived.

 

one thing that valuev is not given credit for is for having one of the best chins of all time at heavyweight.

he is slow, cannot move his feet and is an arm puncher only but his chin is right up there with the very best.

vitali as well, historically i cannot think of a single heavy 6.6 or above with a decent chin let alone very good chins .

 

You can't just scale up. Much more mass to carry about, much longer arms, longer legs...

 

Basiclly your saying "What if there was a super boxer that was truly unbeatable."

 

then they wouldn't be the floyd or manny that we all know...they'd be much slower.

 

He's a ******* to start with!!

Kong would **** them both up!! Fast hands and great footwork! He's the champ!!

 

I guess the answer would be "He would be unbeatable".

 

if you play by that concept. "Valuev-size"-prime-Roy Jones Jr. can probably beat him.

 

you can also say that a "yao-ming"-size-00' season-iverson will be one of the hardest match up's ever. imagine that gigantic killer-cross over.

 

Imagine Hopkins had three heads.

If Tyson was as tall as Valuev then he would have played in the NBA.
TS is a bored kid obviously.
