Willard Defeats Johnson By Height And Reach Theory
The article argues Willard's extra height of six six and a half feet gave him a decisive edge over Jack Johnson in their April 5 heavyweight title fight. It notes Johnson's crouch reduces his reach, while Willard's upright stance and longer reach allowed continuous, powerful blows to Johnson's jaw and solar plexus. Johnson, though brilliant, faced an unfamiliar mismatch in size and range.
