Moving up, does power ever diminish ?

Was Tito's power ever the same after his opponents started checking his dad's wrapping ?

 

depends on the fighter

 

Pac would knock him out.

 

Shane Mosley is a good example. He knocked everyone out at 135, but his power wasn't as effective after he moved to 147 and 154 even though he had some decent KO's.

 

It's not all about power.

Fighters may change tactics as they move up through the weights, which means they're less attacking and land less.

They may be a Hatton type who relies on strength to tire and then finish an opponent, but they're unable to tire bigger opponents

Many more examples....

Bit of a simplistic question...

 

Power never diminishes moving up, in an absolute sense.

It increases by a little bit, but it affects bigger opponenets to a lesser degree.

 

How about guys whose power seemed to increase as they moved up?

 

It also depends on the nature of the opponent as well.

Do they come to fight, or to survive?

 

Mayorga gave Tito Free several free shots.

Cherifi was KOd several times before Tito and several times after Tito.

And Tito was totally ineffective, power-wise against Roy.



So these three hardly answer my question.


And those are the only three fights he's had since his wrapping technique was 'exposed.'





Oops. Forgot Winky.

But that fight doesn't alter my case.

 

I agree with every thing you said except for your logic reguard Ricky Hatton...Hatto fought at 140 & 147 at the same weight which is roughly 152... What is the difference...? Are you saying that he looks better when he dehydrates himself? If so then that has nothing to do with the weight...only the preparation prior to fighting...

Can you answer that?

 

I disagree. Look at his fights with David Estrada and Cruz at 147. He hurt Estrada to the body but that was it. He beat alot better guys and 135 and destroyed them at that weight then these 2.

 

Agreed.
