    At Joshua's size though it does. Nobody thinks twice when they see a 5'10" 170 "ripped" man. On a 6'6" 250 pounder that's very weird.

    Considering that his brother admitted to taking anabolic steroids I'd say Vitali may have gave him a little bit of the family medicine.

    He's also 6'6", everybody looks kind of weird and/or skinny at that height. Think about how big this guy is for a second. He's 250 pounds, that's a really huge guy. And he barely has any bodyfat. That's strange for a guy that heavy.

    Natural or not, fact of the matter is he looks like his skeleton is rejecting his bulk mass. I mean the guy looks uncomfortable, like he is gonna have trouble walking when he rounds 40. Almost cartoonish.
    So whatever is causing this he would be a better boxer if he came in at 240 or even lower by the looks of it.
    His hand speed at that size now is crazy and would be better. If he trimmed some of the bulk it would help his movement a bit as well.

    Why can't a big guy be "ripped"?

    Joshua needs to do more sparing and floor work and less weights work on stamina and endurance drop down to about 17st all that bulk will catch up with him in a long.fight developing a good jab would be a good idea .Less Hulk more Holmes!.

    this bloody forum

    anyone who doesn't look like dustin nichols is automatically labelled a drug cheat.

    have any of you ever actually done any exercise? it's not terribly hard for someone to get trim especially if they're fighting for 12 rounds.

    Whoever says Anthony Joshua is drugs free is just a point blank IDIOT. It is argued.

    PEDs are part of the game, imo. If you're not taking them then you're missing out. If you get caught then that's your fault for not doing it properly.

    It's widely held that every elite athlete are on PED's and it's laughably naive to even conceive otherwise - those who overshoot are those caught.

    Dude thats just true lol. I hear all that black people more muscle **** all the fukin time and its racist ****. First of all people talk as if all black people are the same. You are talking about 1 billion people, assuming that there all the same is just so stupid. I also do not really know where that crap comes from that black people are more muscular. Most black people that i saw where fat, skinny or normal, just like whites. The amount of ripped blacks is as small as with white people.
    And if i can say one thing for certain then that ee are a bit stronger and bigger then the rest of the world. Which is completly logic. its the same with animals. Then colder the region they live in , the bigger they get. That rule apllies to bears to penguins and all kinds of animals. Look up bergmans rule

    I think we all had friends that had crazy body's that didn't have to lift weights or do push-ups look at BO Jackson he never lifted weights in his life but was strong ass hell and cut and big . Sometimes its just genetics God gifted DNA Program . I had a friend that had a body like a all natural body builder never lifted in his life and looked like a grown man at 16 years old
