    This. Its also the case with jump roping. Some guys are excellent skippers, but can't fight to save their lives.

    Rather than critiquing a limber up on some pads why dont you look at any of his 44 professional fights? Including plenty of quality knockouts against quality opposition.

    This is a fact :nono

    There are some heavy handed punchers that just don't look fast like Wilder or Hearns or Destructive like Forman, their power is deceptive...Most people who watch Monzon fights get lost trying to figure out how does Monzon hurt his opponents with those not so fancy punches, its the same exact reason :deal

    GGG already made history books, 15-0-0-0 (KO 15) in consecutive title defenses that world record alone is HOF guarantee no matter what happens to him from now on :smoke

    Really, take a look at his knockouts of Taylor and Gevor on YouTube then tell us again that he can't punch for ****.

    1. It's a media workout. Boxers rarely go all out

    2. I doubt the old man holding the mitts could handle Abraham if he went all out

    Mike Alvarado shadow boxing is the worst thing I've ever seen. Look it up.
