Gaining strength while maintaining weight?

[Nate]

Boxing and climbing are different. In boxing, people compete with others in their same weight class. In climbing there are no weight classes. Either you can climb a particular piece of rock or not.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you are driving at or how climbing entered the equation. I wasn't suggesting THOSE two things (climbing and boxing) are related, if that's what you mean. I was implying that at 6'5" and especially at 179, the possibility a reach or height disadvantage might not enter your mind and therefore you wouldn't understand why people don't want to move up weight classes in boxing.

Just goes to show I know nothing about boxing. It should probably be illegal anyway.
