    Interesting thread. I'm just under 6' 4", my "prime" MMA weight was 210, but I probably should have bulked up a bit more. I was a trainer, not a competitor and tried to focus on speed (the main guy I was training was 5' 11" / 230lbs -- easy benching 300+ for clean reps).

    While younger I could have squeezed down to Cruiser weight, now I'd say a 225 to 230 Heavyweight would be plausible.

    It would be an interesting workout challenge to get into something remotely resembling Boxing Shape!

    Im 6,4 and about 18 stone, i am about 30 pounds overweight so im still a heavyweight. I used to box at superheavy in the amauters, and dont think unless i killed myself i could fight at cruiser im very big boned have broad shoulders and am jusy a bulky type of guy. Im built like, sergi lyonkivich in that im not defined but very strong.
