Weights of the Heavyweight Champions

[The Great John L]

Smith was just about the same size as Lennox Lewis. Smith was 6'4 and weighed between 227-245 during his prime. That would not be considered tiny by today's standards.

Agreed. And he would still be considered a monster because he could punch like a SOB.

If you watch any Televised Toney fight, the pre-fight stats pop up on screen and his height appears to fluctuate from 5'10" to 6'

I always thought that was the effect of gravity. He got so fat he was being pulled in further towards the Earth's core, hence lost some height.

On a more serious note, to me he looked a good two-three inches shorter than Nunn, whose listing also mysteriously zipped from 6' to 6' 2" on occasion.
