    Since you are a Monzoon fan, I thought I should mention that Monzoon had a reach of 76″ , an amazing size, when you consider that there have been Heavyweight champs with lesser or equal or almost equal reach.

        Bob Foster's reach was the same as Ali's (about 82"). Erik Morales has always been listed with an unusually long reach, especially when he was a featherweight.

        Reach is one stat that I'm always su****ious of. Often it's provided by the fighters's PR rather than anything close to an official measurement. That's why I always trust my eyes more than the stats.

          I am quite sure , that Foster's reach is lesser. Boxrec lists it as 79″ / 201cm. I think going by what I see in films, it is true.

          But yea he does have a good reach.

              Sandy Saddler had the same, if not longer reach than Rocky Marciano.

                    Hagler had broad shoulders and a wide back his arms actually weren't very long though. Its similar to Oscar De La Hoya another guy with a wide back and broad shoulders
