How about this: shadow box for as long as you can every day, and I mean properly. Visualise, imagine fighting, and incorporate every technique you...
Arguello, in the top twenty. Nobody yet has really said anything in opposition to Armstrong's quite astonishing knockout record and instead, one...
Armstrong to Zarate? Well, general thinking has you splitting volume and stamina with power and technique, but I reckon Armstrong was more...
Here's my 'greatest punchers' list so you can see my thinking: 1. Henry Armstrong (volume and strength, irresistable) 2. Joe Louis (accuracy,...
Cheers, yeah, Arizmendi was built like a small LaMotta. A large skull with a thick neck for support surely must contribute. But then you've got...
Does it matter though? That's the real question I'm trying to put out there. If Armstrong wasn't knocking anyone out then I'd obviously not even...
Valdez was monstrous - one thing, though - wasn't much of a body puncher. I feel a lot of great middleweights would fear the headhunter but defend...
Sanchez-Nelson is genuinely my favourite fight.
In all honesty it could be Eduardo Lausse. Or it could be someone like Freddie Steele. Ray Robinson has to rate in the top three; consensus says...
Whether Armstrong would not or could not spear you with straight rights like Hearns, or hook as stylishly as Robinson, or even as powerfully as...
Of course. Armstrong was usually at a weight disadvantage, but he still got those knockouts. I honestly don't believe there is a fighter out...
I'd say the best one to see Williams' style in full the second Bolanos fight, where he wins on points. Good to see the jab, head movement and...
You're all mentioning the volume punching, but what about the results? Armstrong, in his prime, was knocking people out all over the place.
Not a true banger of course, although again, I'll say Armstrong is probably underrated in that area, as he had a reputation among his...
I feel that Armstrong's punching prowess is very, very underrated, mostly due to the fact that every piece of footage we have is of him winning on...
