Its Lamon Brewster and it was from a detached retna....Similar to what the Boxing banker Calvin Brock had....His fight with Robert Helenius is who he blames and to this day swears Helenius gloves were tampered with and caused the injury,,,,,,

Tall fighters with short reach Sam Peter 77"....Brewster 77"...Vitali Klitschko has a 80" reach that is rather short for a guy 6'7+....All rather average or even short for HWTS over 6'2"

You'll be hard pressed to find a man of Floyd Mayweather's height, with the same reach... Except Shane Mosley

You'll also be hard pressed to find a man of Deigo Corrales height with a reach as small as his... Although maybe overall Mike Tyson's was worse

Yeah Mike had a short reach for a LHW he would have an average reach for a MW...Think Tyson was like 71 or 72"

I think Crisanto Espania (spelling) the guy who beat Meldrick Taylor for the welter title and lost it to Ike Quartey had a longer reach than his height.

To put things into perspective... The average man has an arm span as long as his height.
Most boxers have longer reaches to what is considered normal.

For example, Floyd Mayweather's arm span is exactly 6ft

I am trying to understasnd this myself...I don't see the impressiveness...Many fighters arm span is much longer then thier heigh....Shit Mosley has a 74" armspan...Sharmba Mitchell is shorter then Floyd but has the same reach.....Am I not understanding the point here?

I don't really accept the relevance ....... Shane Mosley ay 74" had a longer reach than world hevyweight champ Smokin Joe Frazier (71"). I hope nobody is seriously proposing that Mosley would have done anything other than get crushed like a roach in that hypothetical ring match up?

No match up's geezer... Were just comparing lengths :-)
