I've seen a lot of fighters in person from my time at Gleason's gym. More boxers of course. Saw Michael Grant training and the guy looked like an action hero. Taurus Sykes came out of my gym at the time and he was pretty big. Yuri Foreman looked bigger than his weight class. Yuri always looked like a middleweight in the gym instead of a super Welter. The smaller fighters looked pretty small to me though. Guys like Paul Malignaggi trained there and looked very small in person. Floyd looked pretty small too the one time he randomly stopped by to be an asshole for 10 minutes. Most of the smaller guys didn't seem to show much of a difference, but the more you went up the bigger those cuts lol.
Sounds about right. I always wonder how weird it would be to see someone like Faber or MM. I know they are short but it still wouldn’t prepare me until I actually saw it.
