In the great history of Boxing, which world champion has had the worst body?? ??? Andy Ruiz. No offense, he has a small 32 size waist with Triple D sized man boobs & fat gathering on the back of his skull (shock absorber?).
Were Buster Mathis Sr. and Brian Nielsen titleholders of some sort? Greg Page and a flabby (at certain points) Tim Witherspoon. Lower weight example maybe Juan Diaz? Obviously Tyson Fury and Andy Ruiz but that is very deceptive. Honestly, Joe Calazaghe looked very average physique wise but was an elite athlete with a lot of physical gifts. Same as Corrie Sanders. Old school Jerry Quarry got really flabby mid career but placed high (3rd place) in athlete's Superstars competition. He beat all the boxers entered but placed behind two NFL guys. Excellent hand/eye coordination.
Ruiz is more of a taco bell kind of a guy not Mcdo Lrg burger, fries and up size drinks. He might be who knows.
Ruiz proved body conditioning isn`t as important as modern trainers believe, fundamentals are more important.
Looking at that pic, he's actually carrying quite a bit of muscle mass under that layer of fat. Honestly, losing about 20-30lbs would make quite a difference in his cosmetic look. A lot of functional muscle there. I wonder if he's some sort of binge/junk food eater like James Toney or it's just his body type (endo-mesomorph, gains muscle and fat easily).
the worst body for a world champion boxer? It would be a guy who overloades his body with pointless muscle, making him slow and causing him to gas early
AJ no doubt. Blubber>>>muscle <<FACTS Sanders>>Wlad Ruiz>>AJ Fury vs Bum Squad, Wlad Kownacki>>Szpilka, Martin, Washington Rozanski>>Izu And if Gorman beats Dubois and Ali Eren Demirezen beats Ajagba then fatties are pretty much going to be dominating the entire HW division.
This reminded me of big bro Vitali, because every time he fought; harpoon jokes were made. Charr, Chisora, Solis, Johnson, Arreola, Peter, Williams, Sanders, Johnson.... Vitali smashed A LOT of softies.
