What Weight Are You and Who Would You Face?

A bit of Tuesday fun:

You need to state your weight and height and then state which of the active boxers today would you face in your division if you had to? Doesn't matter if you think you'll either knock them out or get pummelled (think this is more likely in most cases!) but let's make it funny!

I'm 5 ft 8" and a chunky boy. After a bit of a struggle I can make the 200lb Cruiser limit. I'll take that pesky Denis Lebedev. How dare he knock out RJJ? I'll show hi-.....

..."Hello? Hello? Can you hear me? Nurse, more oxygen please! Let's get him to hospital"

5' 8'' Ten stone 4 but could easily get down to super feather where I'd batter the crap out of a crippled Nicky Cook.

I'm 5'10 and roughly 168. I don't fancy my chances at Super-Middle to be honest.

I'd take on Ward and try and get a DQ win from his dirty tactics... If that's failed by the 12th round (or, more likely 12th second) I'd pull off a flying Ortiz headbutt and demand a rematch.

I'm 6ft tall and weigh 170lbs.

Let's say then that I would fight at the super-middleweight limit after taking a dump to remove the excess 2 lbs.

I'd probably choose to go in with Dirrell or Ward. Certainly wouldn't want to face monsters like Froch, Abraham and Kessler (though thinking about it, getting sparked straight away would probably be preferable to taking a sustained panning..).

Tactics? To run until I was knackered...and then get knocked out in the 2nd round.

A white Derek Chisora would be a generous description (though I'm an inch or two taller) therefore it's the heavyweights for me. Fairly happy Fraudley won't throw a punch so I'll take him on and try butt my way Ward/Bradley style to the W and an Olympic gold medallist on my CV!

6'1 and 210 lbs

Same height and a few pounds lighter than Denis Boytsov.

Spoiler:

168, could kill myself to make 160 and stand more chance against Martinez than Barker.

Are you carrying some timber Union?

I reckon he probably doesn't look like Boystov...

My weight is a bit lower down than Denis's to be fair.

I'm still convinced I could get down to light heavy though with a degree of effort, although I haven't seen cruiser for a long time.

I'm a shade under 6' 2" and weigh 145 pounds. I think I could make LWW, LW may be a bridge too.

I'd fight Paulie Malignaggi. With the knockout power we both possess it would make Hagler-Hearns seem like it lasted a lifetime...

You reckon you could lose 35 pounds? I think it's fair to say you shouldn't be calling TRUSSMAN fat from now on.

6ft 2 and 145lbs? Jesus, streak of wee!

I'm 5ft 8 and would be a Straweight if I was a boxer

You vs. Tommy Hearns himself? May have a reach advantage!

Wouldn't want to take that right hand though.

Imagine him next to Union, we could have an episode of Supersize vs Superskinny.

I like to think of myself as a white Tommy Hearns. Pity no-one else does...

That could be the kick that I need....

5' 1" and 305lbs.

Trussy

6'2 and weigh in at just under 200lbs. Probably couldn't cut to 175 - certainly wouldn't have anything left if I did. Would be KOd by Eric Crumble.

I'd like to have a shot at Huck - except not in Germany. Fight him in a 4 rounder, run away/hold for all 4 rounds, do little of significance and then win a hometown decision. See how he likes it.

I'm 5'11" and 11st, so I'd be a rangy LMW (as much as I hate him I'm very similar to margarito in size and physique - but thankfully not facially though, the ugly cat-weasel faced jimmy hill chinned pleb).

To be honest I reckon I could clean out the 154lb division the way it is right now, but if I could fight only one of them it'd be marg - I'd slip a few house bricks into my gloves and batter him senseless, then claim to have been looking the other way when my wraps were being done.

6' 190lb. I would have to fight at cruiser as my physique is shredded and god-like so losing weight is not an option.

I'd fight Macca, my magnificent physique would scare him in to submission, like he did with Haye.

6'1 and 192lbs, although I could cut to 175 healthily. Probably emulate Cleverly's meteoric rise to fame and take on nothing but the cream of the crop of European taxi drivers and postmen.

I'm 6'6 231lb. I'd clean up at light flyweight.

6ft and probably somewhere between 170-180. I think if I got into fighting shape I'd actually be 185-195 which was where I was when I played rugby.

Well, I'm 5'10" and 172lb's - lightheavies for me, quite a weak division so I'd give up the weight advantage to face Audley as I feel we both have a similar fear of being punched.

Blindside flanker? Number 8?

Kit man.

6ft 5 and 210

Fancy my chances against Evander, reckon he would be up for it if I paid him a couple of quid

Isn't it amazing how many people are 6ft and over.

I wonder how that compares against the national average.

Sadly statnig I was 5'10" on the internet would probably equate to 4'9" in real life, would also claim a good sense of humour and a huge.......

The internet is like the Carlsberg version of us all!!!

I am genuinely 6ft 1 Union, and just so you can be certain I am not lying and the like will confess my weight is around the 220 mark

rowley wrote:I am genuinely 6ft 1 Union, and just so you can be certain I am not lying and the like will confess my weight is around the 220 mark

That's the same as Denis Boytsov, just like me.

He does carry it well, the bugger.

Have to admit Union carrying it well is not something I am commonly accused of

Yeah I know, couldn't resist a dig at Carlsberg.

Judging by this thread the forum could make more money advertising Weightwatchers than Primetime.

I'm not fat, my BMI is 28, just like Denis Boytsov.

6ft 1 back in my college days but seem to be a smidgeon under 6 now..

205 pounds last time I checked...

arms = 17 1/2

chest = 49

man sausage = 10

You have got one arm and half a leg missing though.

An extra half leg, more like...

Wahey!!

That will be the gravity acting upon your belly slowly curving your spine.

5ft 10, 9 stone 7, id like a scrap with Katsidis lol

My knee measuerment is 78 inches and I have a 10(11)-0-1 amateur record. The draw, I have on good authority was a robbery but I was well classy and didn't maon or nothing.

I was down on points and cut going into the 9th round in my last fight but pulled out a killer uppercut and finished it. They say I've got great heart and one coach who was friends with Stanley Ketchel says I remind him off Stanley.
