    Im Sick Of People Infactuating Over Weight, Frazier Had Between 20-35 Pounds On Dempsey But I Would Bet A Million Bucks Demp. Could Hit Alot Lot Lot Harder. Unless U Launch Your Full Weight In Your Punches Weight Dont Meen Alot.jack And Rocky Did It Some But 96% Of Fighters Never Do. Alot Of Punches Are Arm Punches .now .of Course 120 Vs 220 Is Stupid But When You Get Above 160-170 It Depends On The Men (jack Sharkey Said Dempsey Could Disslocate Your Shoulder With A Punch) most of todays heavys ARE LUCKY TO CARRY THERE BLUBBER AROUND FOR 12 LET ALONE CARRY ANY POWER VERY LATE

    Do you think Marciano's right would lift 230 lbs Botha off the ground as Lewis's did?

    As a powerlifter myself I know that weight size and even build tell you verry little about a mans strength. I knew this skinny little guy of 5' 8'' who could chuck a 300lb barbell round like it was nothing.

    A power puncher can be any size or shape. The two hardest punching welterweights of all time are probably Tommy Hearns and Joe Walcott whose bodies are about as different as you can get for the same weight.

    Yeah, but you don't think Tommy or Joe Walcott punched as hard as
    Dempsey or Marciano, do you?
