Yard Dog Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) No idea what sort of shape Sharpe and Windass are in these days - not seen either of them for ages (apart from Deano's big fat 'ed on Soccer Saturday). But IIRC, Sharpe was fairly slight and Windass was completely the opposite ?! Size and power are obviously big advantages, but, in my experience, ability and fitness are more important. I've sparred much bigger and stronger guys and more than held my own as I was fitter and more mobile. But struggled against skinny 15 year olds who, despite being weaker and smaller than me, have been fitter and had better skills.
