    Wow! Thanks for this its terrific! What a singular example of lack of self awareness!

    You're going to have to proceed without me for awhile, this has quickly begun to pall .

    If you can't see how analogous human performances address the issue you have raised, then I can't do anything for you.

    If you can't see the difference in leverage that Foreman is able to achieve versus Valuev, Ustinov and Miller, then again... hopeless.

    But then again, this is probably the highlight of your day. I won't deflate your balloon any longer.

    You seem to be speaking from a place of expertise on Triple G and what his punches feel like and look like when they are the hardest he can muster. So where does this insight come from? You seem to KNOW he didn't hit Canleo or Jacobs with his best shots, so I'm curious how.

    Some of the arguments put forth by Dago in this thread leave a lot to be desired.

    I think he makes statements for effect ,I can't think he actually believes half the sh*t he posts.

    Either that or youre wrong and size doesn't equal power and that the point at which returns diminish is much lower than you go around trying to brainwash folks into believing.

    The latter being more likely.

    That’s your interpretation. And I’m under no obligation to entertain it.

    Lack of self awareness? That has absolutely nothing to do with anything because I'm completely aware of my consciousness.

    Please, talk about more stuff you don't understand oh wise internet boxer!

    Nobody but nobody, praises themselves as you do, it displays a marked lack of self awareness.

    In simple terms you are absolutely full of it!

    This is just a tad bit hypocritical.

    I see you self congratulating yourself more than anyone here especially in a non sequiter fashion.

    Poster X: “I think Don C0ckell was harshly criticized in this article.”

    McVey: “Oh really? Because I’ve spoken to Don C0ckell.”

    Heavier men hit harder. It's simple physics.

    Tua was the harder puncher.

    Ummm, then please prove YOUR claim that Triple G didn't hit Jacobs or Canelo with his best shots... Thanks, I'll be waiting.

    Maybe, but it seems to happen so much that it becomes less and less for effect... but you could be right.
