    I'd agree with this tbh, I've got some skinny ass legs but can hit like a mule :hey Pretty similar shape to Paul Williams. I get that leverage in. Power's not just down to size, it's technique and just natural to some

    Shane looked big, but even though this is not right before the fight, Floyd had a little moisture on him and Shane none. Just saying Shane might be a little dry. We will see right before the fight starts if Shane has sweat going.

    I agree wholeheartedly - I actually think overly muscular muscles are a detriment to power punching as huge masses of dense muscle are usually mostly slow twitch. Fast twitch muscles give that explosion of power into a punch making it fast with power. Especially these skinny guys you see with crazy metabolisms! It's annoying as hell because my little brother's like that - age 15, 6foot2 and weighs 10 stone currently of all cut-up muscle - looks rake-like but the boy can bang away like something else. He boxed from age 12 and did it for a year and then took up football/soccer because the only club in the city closed!

    You are seriously stretching things here bro....The guy looked completely pretty composed. I was actually thinking that it looked like nice-relaxed guy shane is starting to make way for killing machine shane. I seemed to me like he was he seemed like he was getting more focused and in the Zone then he's been in the past week. Which is fine by me cause that's the way you are supposed to build towards these types of things.

    Shane was dry. But Floyd looked greased up to me, like he was trying to show that he wasn't dry.

    Ellerbe is definitely trying to get a three way going. What a *****. WTF is wrong with that guy, and why is he so ****in' involved? Mayweather Sr is even looking at him like "What the **** is wrong wit dis motha ****a?" .... and the guy behind him is ****ing screaming for his life because he saw Ellerbe's tongue start to come out. Dude to our far right is diggin' it.

    Yes he does have a jab.......always has. Like every other athlete you don't always use all your weapons, especially if your aren't focusing on them enough in training.

    And he used his reach against Margo, as well as his jab. And in that same fight he also chose to smother Margo at times, and use footwork to sidestep Margo.

    Shane was using four different strategies to offset Margo's pressure. You just weren't paying attention is all.

    It's crap to speculate power on looks. Don't give me that sh*t biceps triceps well built or not strong enough, that counts for squat. It's the power displayed in the ring that counts.

    Mosley KOd Margarito, who has never been hurt before. Do you think Mayweather could ever do that? Mayweather probably has less power than Pacquiao. To get decent leverage on his punches, he really needs to use his body to the fullest. He's an average puncher at WW, what enhances his punches is the fact that most of them are well placed and timed counter punches, which catch you off ballance, as he's a master timer.

    You guys do not know boxing, spreading out this nonsense. floyd has no punching power, why should shane be worried.You may be worried if you fight a big puncher.
