Gennady Golovkin punches almost 3 times as hard as Mayweather did. In a literal sense.

    What are you talking about?
    I said i didnt read and jumped on the "Mayweather Defense Express"
    And i just wondered where you got the 800lbs from...
    (And no, i am not arguing that Mayweather is some big puncher. Even when he used to sit down on his punches, he would fail to get a single shot KO)

    I wonder how Sports Science came up with the number since they didn´t actually test Mayweather. They had to do some sort of a calculation.

    This makes me curious how hard I could punch on one of these machines. I am 235 but just train in boxing, not an actual fighter.

    I punched 910 on the punch machine at the bar. That’s exactly why Floyd ducked me.

    Didn't you make a thread asking why his KO's stopped at welter?

    I just want to know if a regular 235 pound man with some basic boxing training can punch harder than a professional welterweight fighter.

    Probably, but the difference is the pro could probably throw that punch out 5 times to Joe's one big ass wind up.

    *Bangs head against the desk.

    I am trying to say that the Sports Science numbers seem BS! I am trying to say that i didn´t fully read you opening post! I am trying to say that Floyd never was a big puncher!

    I wish we had Sports Science back when Julian Jackson was fighting. I would have loved to see how hard he hit.
