    ATGs like Joe Louis used the same stance. The stance isn't silly, every style just has faults.

    Is it really that funny? Bob lost to any half way decent fighter he went up against. Very odd post

    What in ring weights was Moorer during his light heavyweight career?

    Considering Fosters results against men smaller and less greater then Moorer...

    Moorer bulldozes him with ease honestly IMO.

    Double M had the misfortune of being too big for LH and too small for HW. His division should have been (190 lbs) CW, unfortunately it never had the $.

    Honestly- I think Moorer was would have been big for CW not too big but he would know he needed to make weight.

    Without "supplements" he and Holyfield were of comparable size. Both suited to 190 lbs. Holyfield, like Moorer, was too drained at LHW.

    Both weighed 214 lbs in their first fight. They would probably weigh 200 lbs to make 190 lbs.

    What makes you assume Holy took roids after CW and that he wasn't on while he was there?
    Same with Moorer- Steroids can help you lose weight as much as they can help you gain it- The penny hasn't quite dropped here yet.

    He probably did, but even without the roids he had a lot of issues making 175. His transformation wasn't as drastic at CW.
    Really? I expect there is another class of drugs for that.

    Man- lot of guys really don't know. In BBing there are drugs for helping you cut down and get really sucked dry without effecting your strength. It makes you really just peel down the fat. So say you are a 15% BF WW 147lbs 155lbs fight night you could shred off as much fat as you wanted and be 8% or lower and be fine and squeeze into JWW looking like Bruce Lee.

    I do know of drugs that manipulate metabolism. Holyfield I think just couldn't get to 175 with same day weigh ins.

    With helps of PEDs and 36 hourse to rehydrate the number of multiple weight champions has drastically improved.
