Corrie sanders vs gerry cooney...

[THE PHILOSOPHER]

Damn I had no idea Cooney was 6'6" until now !

Always thought he was about 6'2" or so.

Anyway its tough to say as I haven't seen that many of either guy's fights. Spicoli is correct in saying Sanders was faster, and he was probably more durable as well.

Well if u have seen say Cooney v Holmes or Cooney v Norton , or Cooney v Spinks .

Did you not think the 6'2 Cooney was about 3-4 inches tallers than them , making Homes under 6 feet ?

For the record i go for Sanders via 2 round KO.

I have seen Cooney vs. Holmes a few times as well as Cooney vs. Foreman.

I did not notice a glaring difference in height and after some reserach into his height, Cooney has been listed from 6'4" to 6'7" with 6'6" seeming to be the most common billed height.

He also is not a fighter to stand straight up when boxing so his height never appeared to be that great in my estimation as say the Klitschko brothers who fight quite tall.

He appeared roughly the same height as Holmes or Foreman, both of whom are 6'3".
