    He's been an athletic star his whole life maybe?

    Maybe his occupation requires him to be in good shape and maybe, just maybe, he's committed.

    But yes, the insane majority of athletes are on PED's, if that is the hidden message here.

    I don't think he's that much more jacked than an average boxer.

    I think he is just like any other hard working athlete, all of them have good body others like rios don't look like much because they are lazy and eat too much...

    nobody is mentioning diet. this is just as or more important than how much he trains.

    Really interesting how it takes 6 pages to understand how a PROFFESIONAL BOXER can be so ripped.
    these people get paid to work out and are mostly under strict diets. I know people who go to the gym maybe and hour or two a day and are ripped now imagine these guys that spend their lifes in the gym for a living and get paid to stay in shape and work hard. there is only so much genetics and that stuff can do

    I used to work in a spanish speaking circus. Lots of mexicans. Lots of cubans. Every cuban was cut, muscular, short, built. every mexican was short and chubby. they worked out the same, they ate the same. There was a 45 year old gymnast cuban guy built like Gamboa working there. Cubans have some great background there.

    80% genetics.

    rios doesn't have a good body because he eats mexican food, but Gamboa could smoke and eat whatever he wanted and he would still look better than Rios - his genetics are just superior for that quality muscle mass. Those cuban gymnasts were all chain smokers who ate whatever they wanted, but they had awesome (but very short) physiques. sure, they did physically demanding stuff, but so did the sloppy Mexican guys who worked all day long, too. they would eat at the same cook outs.
