I'm really talking about guys like Nunn and Ali. Is it a stamina thing or something else? On the flip side, Martinez is pushing 35 and his legs are "fine".
seriously though everybodys physical makeup is diffrent its the same reason some athletes get injured more easily than others its all how your body copes with the strain you put on it in the long run
Common misconception. They don't "lose" their legs per se... they have them broken. See Lewis : Grant. Learn about the sport of boxing.
watchin the 3 morales pacquiao fights shows just what all the accumulation of a tough career does to you especially if your a fighter whos spent all his career just trying to make weight it gets to a point were you cant make the weight anymore you weaken your body its also dehydrated so your legs cramp up and then theres not much you can do put with it wars and someone throwin body shots and its only a matter of time
I haven't seen that fight, but you can see a difference in the condition of Morales legs from the first Barrera fight to the third Barrera fight
you know what amazed me in the second fight i watched it again last night and morales's legs went after round 5 but it took pac till round 9 to finish him its just incredible is that just purely on morales's heart?
How do you think the 2nd fight would have went had Morales taken better care of his body for his entire career?:think
