Most of the HW’s from back in the day weighed in the 190 to 210 range. We really didn’t start seeing these 6’7 250lb monsters until the early to mid 90’s. Joe Louis, Jack Dempsey, Ali, Frazier would all be considered small HW’s today. Deontay Wilder usually weighs in around 212lbs give or take.

212 is the lowest Wilder ever weighed for a fight. He usually in the 220's.

Any grown man under 6’ tall is short


Maybe to someone who is 6 feet and up. I'm 5'11 and stocky and every since a teen, I've been referred to as "big." Constantly asked "Do u play football?" Never felt short a day in my life and u the first person I ever heard say that. I remember my basic training 'battle buddy' once saying "I always call u 'big man' but u aint that tall u just built big"

They used Hollywood movie magic to make him a Heavyweight :russ:


So to extrapolate when he faced off against Hulk Hogan they billed him as like 6'10" and 390 :mjlol:
