    This posts with being bigger makes you direct better or unbeatable boxer starts to nerv me! Why no one gives Rocky a chance? He is not smaller than Tyson or Tua, but no one says for them bah they are too smal and have no chance! We must not forget that the size is not the most important messurmant for power! Being bulked unnecessery makes you slower and destroys your stamina! As mentioned Rocky can punch as hard as the new heavyweights and can take punch as good as them! And we must not forget that he can dishes the punischment for 12 rounds! The new big guys go soft after 5 6 rounds no metter the counditoining and the inactivity!

    Maybe the misconception of Rockys style comes from the modern way of boxing. All this guys boxing straight with head in the center. Yes they are all dead against the sisters because they don't box corectly! They can't move, they eat all the punches and can't punch! It doesn't come from the size but from the fondations! Rocky uses his hight and bodydistribution in his advantage. I want to see how 2+ m high man punches at about 0.9m hight with power and not knoking himself off balance!
    Punching dawnwards is dangerous bussines! This destroys the reach and opens you for all type of counters plus the punch is not driven from the muscles!
    Lets take the smal guys like Tonney and Tua. How many times do they end up beaten badly? How many times did they get hurt if not getting desperate or showing off? What does Holifield do when he is under fire? Why did Archie Moore has 221 fights and die at 85 not suffering form any mental diseases? Yes all of them know how to make themself smal
    I watch explicitly Joe Louis against Primo Carnera and Vitali Klitschko Vs Odlanier Solís. Both of the tall guys boxed in the same maner and Solis did land good punches! This means that Louis would have killed him! And the way that Vitali is jabing makes him sitting duck for the Suzi Q!
    You are floored in your views , but thats cool , Moore wasnt the only guy to hit Rocky easily , plus you are comparing a 39 years old Vitali to a prime Rocky , or didnt you
    think before you posted ?
    How about a 39 year old rocky v 39 year old Vitali ? you see my point.
