    Can't lie, watching Beterbiev and Madrimov do that stuff (the alternating wrist/fingertip push-ups and the combined front clap and back clap push-ups) makes me want to be able to do them. Must push myself out of my calisthenics comfort zone.

    I wonder if Beterbiev will even get 20 wins on his record. 35, 36 in January. Doubt it. He will probably get iced by 2022

    Time is of the essence for him but he is a clean living athlete, doesn't drink or has any vices. Plus he is a gym rat so he can keep at peak for longer too. Someone like Kovalev was the complete opposite; semi alcoholic, bad genetics, head not in the right place etc

    I don't recall seeing any Usyk or Loma in this thread. Shouldn't that be illegal?

    Loma. Not particularly impressive but he looks tiny. Like a leprechaun. Loma the Leprechaun.

    Weirdly enough I got fit doing push ups between rounds while watching boxing

    Push ups are great. They were the exercise of choice for me and my crew when we were running D block.

    Right! These exercises are necessary to increase the muscle mass of the forearms, which contributes to the growth of impact force. Look at him, he looks like sailor Popeye :)
