    Donaire's main attribute is his power, and he doesn't have an ounce of muscles on him. He's all bones and nerves, not even cut, the definition of skinny fat

    In his cruiserweight days, his prime? He definitely was in shape as the pic shows.

    I've watched him fight live as a cruiserweight and heavyweight.

    I don't think anyone has mentioned Tito yet. I remember Roy even commenting on it during a fight once, that it's odd where his power comes from because he looks like he'd be a weak puncher..

    Holmes had a flat stomach and his hips weren't almost as wide as his shoulders. Not so for Fury.

    Idol worship much? Sorry, that's just not accurate. I've never seen a photo of Holmes with a flat stomach. It's not his build. It's not some kind of sin, it just is what it is. Deal with it.

    You see what you see I guess, but if you made a thread, posted the "best" photo of Holmes you could find, and attached a poll asking if he had a flat stomach or not, you'd be voted down.

    Idol worship? Because I disagree with you? lol Holmes didn't have a belly in his prime and wasn't built like Fury. If you don't agree then that's fine with me. By the way, I never cared for Holmes when he was the champ so I am far from being a fan.
