    Yes. But to go from 154 to 160 is not as drastic as to go from 175 to 200.

    Your thesis fell apart rather quickly! Hippos are extremely fast! They can out run any human. Soooo, you're wrong on all accounts! LOL

    He was comparing them to gazelles

    Gazelle speed

    97 km/h

    Hippopotamus speed

    30 km/h

    Gazelle vs Hippopotamus

    Not Human vs Hippopotamus

    Or even Gazelle vs Half human/Half hybrid ala Andre ''The Petrified Gazelle'' Dirrell vs Donkeypotamus Wilder

    GREAT post. Loved reading it :) You put things into the proper perspective.

    Just one bone to pick with you:

    Elephants don't weigh 800lb. A bit more than that :p

    :lol: Agree, what BS is this, they're like old school buddies before slapping a steak on the barbie and chugging beer. Clearly fake, they're not going to really hit each other hard. Compare that to this:

    THAT, my friends, is REAL. You can fully see the anger and madness in that interview. That's the real world of blood and guts, not this GGG / Vanes fakery. Uppercut, like me, is not fooled by this BS. :ohno

    Tony Loeffler makes a good point here about Derevyanchenko

    Derveyanchenko and Jacobs both share the same trainer and management team and when GGG fought the later his trainer Andre Rozier said that they need a minimum of 11 to 12 weeks to train for the fight and also that it took them 3 months to negotiate that fight because Jacobs and his team were difficult to deal with with all the demands they were making. They were obviously up against the clock trying to arrange a fight for the May 5th date and they have prior experience dealing with these people and being messed around by them.

    What Hurd did to Lara, makes me think Golovkin would have stopped him sometime in the last third of the fight.

    Little known fact: Elephants get their name from elephant seals and the later are absolutely enormous too.

    'They are colossally large in comparison with other pinnipeds, with southern elephant seal bulls typically reaching a length of 5 m (16 ft) and a weight of 3,000 kg (6,600 lb), and are much larger than the adult females (cows), with some exceptionally large males reaching up to 6 m (20 ft) in length and weighing 4,000 kg (8,800 lb); cows typically measure about 3 m (10 ft) and 900 kg (2,000 lb).'

    Up to 20ft in length :scared1

    Look at the size of this mother

    So if Errol Spence jr moved to 154 from 147 to face jermell charlo, you'd say pretty much the same thing as here, right?

    Any subject on 3G really makes you a damn moron....

    @IsaL your heart is full of hate, bro. You should watch some Dora the Explorer or something.

    Agreed. Vanes despite being a tough dude, id tailor made for GGG's style. No one from 154-160 is going to be able to outslug GGG, that's one of his greatest assets.

    Nah, you didn't hurt my feelings at all, bro. I just see you being tormented day in and day out by Golovkin.

    Nice write up CST80. I do believe Vanes' inactivity will be a pretty big factor though.
