    Got by just on athleticism? :blood

    That would to me seem a sarcastic reply...but I could understand (and have actually encountered) someone thinking he was just a crude guy with power, wrong as that is.

    I think maybe the OP shouldn't have lumped both together as it becomes two separate questions and two separate lists that are just needlessly confusingly intertwined here.

    Edison Miranda and Randall Bailey on right hand power, never expanded their ****nals to beat better fighters

    Athleticism and power maybe a Seth Mitchell got as far as he could but just wasn't truly a fighter deep down

    To be honest, I wasn't being sarcastic but on a second thought, I shouldn't have mentioned him, I was comparing him to modern boxers.
