Would Wilder hit harder if he puts 20 lbs muscle to his skinny legs?

An old wives tales says power comes from the calves!

Prince Naz was always used as an example for this

 

Power is the least of his problems

 

If its one thing the guy DOES have is decent power

 

Nah, his weak point is his awful punching technique, horrible balance and poor ring IQ.

 

and adding mass to certain muscle groups is not straight forward, its all genetics so if got skinny legs now he will always have them

 

It depends if he could transfer the power that extra muscle would provide into his shots. If he could he'd no doubt hit harder as long as his punches don't lose any speed as power is a combination of speed and force.

But as someone else said, Wilder doesn't lack for power, he'd be better off to spend his time refining his technique and balance rather than getting stronger legs.

 

MVC: "If Wilder hit any harder he would break his shoulder and arms regularly during sparring"

 

Lost for words :rofl

 

If Wilder put 20lb of muscle into his chin, could he survive Dustin Nichols' power shots? :think That's a better question.

As to the OP, more weight means that you're pushing power off a heavier base. He wouldn't hit harder, but more of his power would be transmitted through his shots.

 

:rofl

 

Yes !

 

No man,or beast could survivea flush Nichols shot!

 

10/10, laughed. :rofl

Well done.

 

Seems like the legs thing is just common street ignorance without any science backing it up.
