    I think 1 pound of muscle weighs the same as 1 pound of fat. I believe the weight of 1 pound of muscle weighs 1 pound. I also believe that 1 pound of fat weighs 1 pound.

    Bermane has all the blubber to make sure he has a soft landing when Joyce hits him. Planning ahead see.

    Never forget: this guy is Wilders 2nd best win.

    Right after Nicholls of course.

    Lol, if Stiverne isn't trolling then he's delusional. Maybe he's trying the Jarrell Miller approach if he is he's failed needs to be over 300lbs, he'll be weight drained and not have the punching power required much like a sub 300lbs Miller was vs Wach.

    if he is that little a threat then Joe really is wasting his time at age 33 plus, isn't he?

    In regards to this fight yes, he's literally going to walk through him. But it's a name still, this is less about testing himself against someone good and more about fighting someone with a recognisable name.

    if he walks through a shot to **** Stiverne he will need to line up a couple actual quality opponents real quick. unless he is just looking to cash out against a big name or belt holder. at his age his downside could start at any time.

    He is more rock solid than the Wilder fight, but he's still not lean enough. It means he 's added 20lbs of extra muscle. But didn't lose the body fat. He obviously didn't go through the cutting phases. His calorie intake is horrible, to get to that state. Not just about hard training if hes still eating donuts everyday. You can't out train a bad diet. You simply don't burn off that kind of fat. Should have did carbohydrate cycling. Now he's gonna turn into a blob and eat the people in the arena lol.

    I'm slowly becoming convinced that Stiverne actually has a really dry sense of humour and is trolling us all. First there was that buffet event he held last year, then his comments on beating the "then-undefeated" Kerston Manswell as if that was some sort of achievement, now his claims about sparring thousands of rounds and running hundreds of miles and turning up in the worst shape of his life. There's just too much humour there for it to be wholly unintentional.

    Yeah, he obviously knew he was in horrible shape long before the rest of us did. And yet he's out there saying he's "in the best shape of his life" or some ****? Nobody is THAT delusional.
