Greatest P4P ever vs. Last ranked American heavyweight today.

Yes, Shackleford is 0-8 (all losses in the first round), but he is 6'6" and a large heavyweight (his lightest has been 269).

Robinson wins easily and there should be absolutley no doubts. Size alone can only do so much. I am about 6'2 165, but I can beat the shit out of my 6'6 230 pound friend. I have trained in boxing for years and he hasn't. A huge advantage in ability will overcome a huge advantage in size.

Watch the Shaq fights with De La Hoya & Mosley. They are of some interest here.

A slight digression-------Shaq would have a made a good boxer. He appears to have quite a bit of natural talent.

Not to mention he appeared to be playing around with Shane and Oscar, watch his sparring with McCall and you see a fairly competent large HW who can take a shot.

:shame: Not saying he can or can't. They were sparring and they had on head gear this doesn't say anything about him being able to take a shot.
