[Royalty]

Foreman weighed in at #220 on the nose, while Ali was at #216 and change. You figure he was a bit heavier pre weigh in, so 17 1/2 - 18" is the right range. Probably closer to 18".

I read a similar stat card in a boxing book claiming half an inch more, big strong powerfull dood either way, threw both fights in my eyes also

[Alucard]

Foreman was always underweight during the 60s and 70s, he was badly coached (Dick Saddler was a joke) and often dehydrated... His natural weight was around 235lbs, at 6'3... Clearly taller and fairly bigger than Liston, i'd say arms in the 19 inches range, rumored to have legit 20 inches, but imo not underweight and dehydrated as he was...

[Simple Simon]

boxers had their arms measured unflexed.

Maybe 19 when boxed in later life as an obese preacher...and why the fuck would he be dehydrated, was he too dumb to drink water day to day

Dehydrated close to many of his fights, because as i said he was badly coached, they almost never got his conditioning right... What's so hard to believe a monster like Foreman had 19 inches arms when young? He was 6'3, around 220lbs and not with % bodyfat of a bodybuilder... When old and fat for sure 20 inches or over...

Your a fucking moron, why on earth would a heavyweight be dehydrated? I can't think of any reason why this would be, please elaborate ( explain )

Because his coach/coaches didn't get his prep right, he was always underweight, mostly dehydrated, what's so fucking hard to understand? And you can keep the "moron" for yourself, mongoloid...

You keep repeating the same garbage over and over, I feel like columbo asking the same question over and over

Only fighters who struggle to make weight will be dehydrated if there a lb ot two over the limit... So why on earth would a heavy stop drinking water the day/ night before a fight, it makes no sense, it belies logic

They may have over did his diet or trained him into the ground possibly, pls explain as I asked before why water was with held?
