    Was he laughing or smiling when he said it?

    Did he make "bunny ear" quotation marks when he said "George Foreman" and "crazy power"?

    He appeared exasperated as he said it and he was serious.

    If he has never been hit by George Foreman, he has no way of knowing.

    regardless, don't let it get over your head since power is not everything in boxing and relying solely on it is an insult to pure boxers.

    Don't start developing an ego just because of what he said.

    You must be doing a lot of wallsits to develop raw power like that. If you arent, then you need to be doing them, because they will without a doubt increase your powers.

    It's on of the secrets professionals use to hit so much harder then amateurs.
