    And Dubois is "only" 6'4 apparently. Is the age of the giant heavyweights over? It seems fighters are finding more and more ways around the height disadvantage in the heavyweight division. Or there just isn't any good big guys around atm.

    So was George Foreman, Muhammad Ali, Ken Norton and Larry Holmes. Louis was 6 ft 2.

    Its almost as if the people pretending Usyk was Sam Langford were full of it.

    Just being devils advocate here but Parker and Kabayel would be among the biggest HWs around in the 70s and 80s. They're only "small" compared to guys like Fury and Zhang.

    Look at how short Kabayel looks next to 6'1 Cristiano Ronaldo

    Chisora probably isn't even 6'1 more like 6'0 making Kabayel more like 5'11

    That's not a good angle. They are either the same height, or Kabayel is a smidgen taller. Derek is tilting his head up a tiny bit to lock eyes with Agit.

    I would say Kabayel is 6'1 1/2 or 6'2 max, but definitely not 6'3.

    You are missing out Dubois, who would knock the stuffing out of Parker and Kabayel. He is 6'4''.

    Looking forward to Opetaia moving up I think he would be great fun and hopefully he gets past Zurdo.

    What a fight Opetaia and Kabayel would be.
