    not terrible. But for a p4p boxer in his prime at the lower weights.

    Thats the worst physique i've seen.

    Doesnt look like a boxer at all. I know he is in great condition but he doesn´t look like it.
    And all the talk about not being able to make 118 is just bollocs.

    Since when does being ripped make you win a fight? It doesn't matter. Arce is overmatched in the skill department. He only has a punchers chance.

    any examples of a fighter that looks as bad as this though.

    Only looking for top level fighters, and not heavyweights.

    Doesnt mean ****. Juan Diaz was the softest looking guy out there but was always primed for 12.

    Beat me to it. Exactly the guy I was going to mention too. It doesn't matter what your appearance is. You can look like Juan Diaz and be prepared to go 12 fast paced rounds. Or you can look like Steve Cunningham and have stamina issues.

    Andre Berto is ****ing jacked, but he's never in good shape. Donaire is a tremendous athlete, but he's just not going to look it.

    I put Vcash on Arce to pull the upset. I'm really curious what will happen if Arce can eat his punches and stay on top of him during the fight brawling. Cockiness can be a huge weakness.

    Prescott is pretty bad

    Another example, Yusaf Mack usually is pretty cut but always starts fighting with his mouth open around round 2 or 3.

    When your fighter submits to 24/7/365, that's natural.

    Blame it on Conte. :lol:

    I was going to mention Juan Diaz, does anyone know how he built his stamina that way? just straight running and sparring? i heard he did the mountain climber machine a lot too
