Would it be "virtually" impossible to beat a 7 foot 7 inch fighter?
If a fighter of even moderate skill came along at 7 foot 7 inches and in excess of 330 pounds, would even the likes of the Klitschkos or giants like lennox Lewis be able to beat them, or even reach them? I am talking about a fighter who was about at the same skill level of vakluev, which we all seem to agree was rather mediocre at best. So imagine a fighter a good 6 inches taller than Valuev and a good 40 pounds heavier than Valuev, how much more difficult it would be to get him out of there.

Problem is the genetics. People with those long appendages are way more awkward, movement wise. Someone will pull a Lil Mac Ala Mike Tyson punch out and jump uppercut them and its over. If someone was just proportionally that big it would be different.

Haye, a cruiserweight, had valuev on queer street at one point... Just saying. Nothings impossible. Find a weakness and exploit it. Big dudes like that expend more energy just to do the minimum.. In and out, pick at the body, step around and don't let him lean on you. If he does, drop like he pushed you down. A few warnings should put an end to that sh*t.. Eventually hell have to chase you. Use your feints, take him into deep water and drown him then do your work late when he's running on fumes

100% agree.............but look how virtually NO ONE could pull that off against for example George Foreman or Lennox Lewis.

The HW theses day's seem very large, but there skill levels seem pretty poor Foreman was a
nasty guy at one time,! Lewis could be annoying he would fight very lazy and get KO,! then
have a rematch and smash them to bits strange fighter.!

No they would be beaten otherwise Basketball players would take up boxing.

Don't know, if he had a jab and could move normally, maybe. The problem would be if the referee thinks it's a foul to continuously hit your opponent on top of the head. ;)

Make a monthly 6 figure salary playing basketball or get inconsistent paydays and possibly never get 6 figs for a fight while taking punches - pretty easy choice.

Define "virtually"?;D
Sorry. I just hate that word. Virtually wet, virtually dry, virtually straight, virtually dirty, virtually agnostic.
Look, it either is or isn't. Why not just use the word almost.
Clearly its a failure as a sub for might be.
I'm not directing this to you brock but the species uses that word like it means something other then what it means.
Anyway in answer to the question, assuming equality across all measures.......PROBABLY;D
