I really don't think the extra weight helps. Today's heavyweights can do all the high tech training they want. They still fight like crap. Who actually thinks that the likes of Dempsey and Louis would not have a walk in the park against the guys today?
The guys today move around slower, and I think the weight weighs them down and they therefore don't have much stamina and don't throw alot of punches.
Vitali is the best heavyweight out there, and he's not very bulky. Two of the best contenders, Toney and Byrd, happen to be smaller guys.
The only guy I can think of that benifited form added bulkiness is holyfield, and even he couldn't fight at the same pace that he did when he was a cruiserweight fight Qawi.
