Serious Is wingspan really so important?

[Doug]

If you have Long arms you will have a better reach thats for sure, but for me it always seemed that guys with short thick arms have the biggest strength and speed


Look at tyson, his wingspan is even smaller than the one of floyd mayweather despite the fact that a he's a good amount of Inches taller, but that didnt took him back beating up guys twice the size as him, he also had a bad shoulder Frame, he was not really a Broad guy, just thick and compact along with relatively short legs


I think you still can be a good infighter with short arms, but of Course your Options of strategies are limited

It is not.

all you need is chad face.

No, because the guys with the biggest wingspan usually have midfaces like Pippen or Kanter.

Long arms are syndromal and dysgenic. Just look up Marfans syndrome, Klinefelders syndrome and others. They are quite prevalent.

Tyson got his ass kicked and displayed his severe manlet mental problems against skilled fighters that were bigger than him, though. Tyson's success is largely due to great timing with boxing being really popular yet demanding a pure power guy like Tyson and promoters properly selling his unique power and speed.
