    what?

    the statement i made multiple times is that we are assuming that both people can punch.

    not that the person with strong fore arms cant punch for ****...again putting words in my mouth and on top of that blatantly lieing about what i said.

    I like how this has gone on and on without anything actually been proven or anything helpful whatsoever. Usual Ylem stupidity posts, trying to prove points that really don't matter at all...

    So you're basically saying if we don't agree with you we don't have a clue? :lol:

    I'm not always correct, I'm just letting you know when you're wrong which happens to be near enough every time you post.

    Important? No, not at all.

    Youve been trying to argue that technique means nothing when it comes to wrist problems when punching? and now your saying the point you was trying to come back with was that both fighters having good technique but one has weak forearms? this is how your going to twist the conversation to make it look like your agreeing with us now? im sorry but no the guy with the stronger forarms AND good technique has spent time training his forearms where he could have been training more useful boxing skills so id say hes still at a disadvantage lol

    im not argueing that technique isnt important......im arguing that technique isn't even mentioned in the thread topic.....

    im not agreeing with you im pointing out that if you have 2 good fighters that know how to box and one has shitty forearms hes going to be more prone to injury and not have as hard of a punch(not fast er or more powerful just harder like foam compared to wood).

    and your argument is that 5 mins a day with a power ball is taking away from training time? lol

    1. Define "shitty forearms".
    2. Why is a person with average strength forearms more prone to injury than someone who works their forearms?
    3. You honestly think there's going to be such a huge difference in punches between somebody with average forearms to somebody that does grip work? There's not a huge difference at all. I used to have a grip strength of around 80kg, now it's probably between 60-70kg. From then and now I haven't noticed some huge difference that makes me think working my forearms is important.

    If what you're saying is true, rock climbers, with their incredibly strong grip and forearms, would be demolishing people in a single punch.

    its not a huge difference it just makes your hand harder, more solid allowing the force to transfer better. if a normal forearm hardness is like wood strengthening it would make it like plastic its not a huge diffrence. it dosnt increase punch speed and you dont generate any more force the force is transfered better.

    a rock climber is another person that dosnt know how to punch.

    ...we are assuming these people know how to punch.

    a rock climber with distance technique and accuracy down would make a good boxer.
