    that makes sense. it's off point but id much rather be lean and cut to maintain the power. The over-muscular guys in boxing seem to have stamina issues. And for some reason, i can't think of many muscular guys with really good technique. Wlad is lean imo.

    I am not talking about unusual exceptions, as you mentioned, I am refering to the field of fighters, as a whole, ............

    I agree, but technique merely enhances the power generated by a more developed and powerful muscle.

    This stands to reason, no matter how you slice it.

    And your bodybulding example is a rediculous one. :blood

    I'll probly just get shotime then. I'll be ordering pavlik/hopkinds too. are they showing klitschko/peter during the day since its in Germany? If so then I'll just drink beers and watch boxing all day.

    Even if they're a bit smaller, it shouldn't make a difference...he's not exactly Mr. Twiglet. More important is going to be that he can keep the volume and accuracy going.

    What boxing ability? as soon as he beats a top heavyweight let me know...Toney was older fatter and smaller, Maskaev was shot

    Vitali may be older but he's got more boxing talent the Peter could ever dream of...
