From what I’ve read Trayvon was 6’3” and 140-160 pounds. He was a football player. He was probably wiry with muscles.

Six feet, 160 per the original police report. By an interesting coincidence, I recently witnessed a kid just that size charge a somewhat heavier kid and beat him after an “exchange of words”.

Earlier today I read that Trayvon was something like 6’3 and Zimmerman was something like 5’3.

According to the police report, Martin was 6'0" and 160 lbs., and Zimmerman was 5'9" & no weight recorded.

Not necessarily in the same weight class, but 'out-reach' is usually better than 'out-weigh'.

Reports say Trayvon was 6' 2", played on the football team. Zimmerman said he knocked him over with one punch and started banging his head on the ground repeatedly, despite his cries for help. Based on that, the answer is yes.
