What fighters were best at turning lack of height into an advantage?

Pascual Perez, could get under jabs and wing his own punches over the top.

 

He also used his lower center of gravity to stand solidly infront of an opponent and push them back.

 

Yep. For a 4'11 guy he was freakishly strong.

 

marciano used to crouch low and wind his punches up.canzoneri was another

 

He was well built though and the lower center of gravity really aided him.

 

Agreed. On that point Greg, Prime Tyson would probably be a decent name for this thread :good The way he propelled himself upwardsmade his punching more powerful in my opinion.

 

Turpin; Marciano's crouch was integral to his style, good shout :good

 

cheers.:good
he was using it as he approached walcott to administer the coup de grace

 

Frazier? Jeffries also used a crouching style even so he was quite big. Peter Mueller also used a crouching style.

 

Tyson by far, that should be the only answer on this thread, the rest arent in his league. Marciano fought how many ranked 6-3+ opponents despite being the same height?

 

I copy that crouch/movement to a tee when I see someone move back to the ropes.

Sadly my right hand isn't quite as destructive as Rockys



I need to get back back down the gym.

 

i couldn't put mine through a wet newspaper.

 

he was usually 3 stone heavier too
