Why don't they train hard? At least the Klitschkos and Haye actually resemble athletes. There are too many tubby blobs who don't take the sport seriously.atsch:verysad:-(
considering the top boxers are historically some of the worlds richest athletes thats a good question but it takes something special to be great in boxing, i know i dont have that hunger/fire
It is completely unprofessional, and one of my favorites (Cris Arreola) has been among the worst transgressors. At least he looked in better shape when I saw him over the summer. Every job has a bit of a grind to it. I'm in real estate and lending and have to take tedious classes and tests to keep my licenses current, but I do because I am a professional. I don't think expecting a fighter to train is too much.
Plenty of HW boxers are in shape. Its just that in this new era; Large heavyweights (6'4 225 +) are dominating, so smaller heavies try to compensate by gaining more weight.... Its not working however :yep
Just because they're lazy, unfortunately. Very few of the top 10 are able to go a good pace 12 rounds and I don't think any heavyweight around today is capable of going at a fast pace for 12 rounds. Even the guys in good shape, like Haye and Wlad, have stamina issues. The heavyweight division has very few redeemable aspects right now. The physical condition of the fighters is the lowest it has ever been. There has never been a lazier, more unfit bunch than the current crop. There are some who are built for bodybuilding and some who are out of shape. Not many are built for fighting.
No they're not you bellend. Even the so-called "large" heavyweights aren't actually that big. Look at how lanky Vitali Klitschko was in his kickboxing career (under 200lbs!). And he's bigger than Wlad! I don't know what HW's you're watching. But with the exception of maybe the Klits, Haye, and a few others, most of them are fat blobs.
That's the funny thing for me. If someone like Arreola truly dedicated himself to boxing, he could be Mexico's first world champion. If he was, he'd make millions and millions per fight. It's sad that he's willing to throw that all away because he wants to eat **** food and I'm sure in 20 years time, he'll regret it. He could be a huge draw but he just isn't dedicated enough.
Some guys like eddie chambers will never be ripped up, just don't have the genetics. The other reason is that most of the heavies today at the least the ones from america are sub standard athletes. The top american athletes are in football and basketball, and therefore you have the leftovers in boxing.
I wouldn't compare real estate and lending to getting punched in the head for a living. You sir are a bit delusional :bbb
Well,its no co-incidence that the top guys are guys who are in great shape. Wlad, Haye, Vitali, even Adamek are all in great shape
This content is protected Boytsov is in shape. Also , Povetkin takes the sport seriously. It's not because he doesn't look like Haye or Wlad that he's a lazy ****. Some guys are like that. One of mma's legends (Fedor Emelianenko) had that type of physique. and yet he used to train like crazy.
