    you see it in his first pro fight when he fought leo, he was 230 pounds to now 249 pounds. he gained 19 pounds in 2 years and most of it is muscle.

    Its Explosive Fast Twitch muscle, so don't worry a lot about the speed. In Joshua case he will have to drop down his work rate to make up for the Stamina loss, they have PEDs for Stamina that can make the body cut some blood flow to the organs and make up for it to push for the muscles, but these will only work if he is not already using them -alot of elite athletes use some form of Stamina accelerator-, otherwise he needs more PEDs & they need to hire an expert for that which is very hard, because most are just dosage administrators who barely can make their object pass the test, let alone calculate the perfect dose...

    Ive never seen this beefolive fight, but im guessing hes similar to Overroid, Carwin or Rumble in MMA, huge musclebound guy who'll either destroy you in a round or gas?

    I don't like seeing such big heavyweights. Joshua is going to be heavyweight champion, but I still would always prefer the days when the heavyweights were 220 lbs and were 6"3.

    Hopefully he won't get any bigger would like to see him a bit less muscular more like Holmes less weights more sparing .

    19 lbs of muscle he built without lifting weights he claims.

    He was pretty damn big at 230 lbs also.

    Joshua is a stiff as hell robot. He ducked Tyson Fury. And Fury will school him very badly if he ever decides to take the fight.

    I believe he won't land a glove on Fury, but he's not that stiff. He's a ballerina compared to Frank Bruno for instance.
