    20 pounds is an absurd difference between two men who weighed the same at 25 in lean muscle.

    Why do you say that nayway? Evander was 217 and 218 for Bowe II and Tyson II, two of his biggest wins. I would actually rate Bowe II as his best HW performance. Your guesstimated calculation doesn't ring true.

    And Maricano has came in the ring over 190 a few times, I think as high as 192.5.

    You said "skin and bones" Now you are back tracking to "slim" You can't back track on your hyperbole and defend it at the same time.

    If you must stick to their listed heights than Maricano was 5'11.5" so same difference.

    How many times did he need to fight over 190lb...... I'd get more sense talking to a burger than you.

    He came in over 190 at least three times off the top of my head, and he's never ever been described as being in poor shape.

    Perhaps. they were probably Marciano haters trying to rob him of half an inch of height. There's a lot of that kind on here.

    3 times? so 3 times in a 49-0 career? it is a great proof about 190 pounds was his best shape

    Sam Langford was only 5'7 and knocked out big boys.
    Golovkin has beat up big boys in training.

    All time power aint no joke....

    It's a much higher quality photo, and doesn't show his legs.
    Rocky had stocky legs. Bigger thighs than Tua.

    But you support your point well. Interesting.
