The spotter grabs it and lifts it

I wonder who would've won if they had to fight?

Have you ever heard the story about Joe Frazier being a contestant on a program, I forget which but it had lots of top athletes competing against each other. He ended up being the only one to fail to lift a weight.

I have seen that but Frazier never weight trained, Broner does!
For a guy that weight trains that is some p1ss poor stuff.
Also Frazier had to clean & jerk with like 70kg or something which is a huge ask for somebody who don't lift and its a wonder he didn't wreck his rotator cuff.
All the other contestants he was against, lifted as a part of their regime & one guy was like a champion rower so obviously he was strong as hell.

If he was a bodybuilder, then that would be some sort of reflection on his career. But he's a boxer.

It doesn't matter what he lifts weights for. Weight training increases strength regardless of diet.
I've seen his routine and he weight trains exactly like a bodybuilder (a 3 day split I believe) the only difference is the diet and he does a lot more cardio.
You don't have to compete to be a bodybuilder. A bodybuilder is simply somebody who trains to build a better body/physique.
He doesn't just shadow box with dumbells. He does a full body routine just like Holyfield, Tyson, RJJ etc
We're not living in the stone age anymore. Weight lifting/bodybuilding is a part of boxing, diet is as big of aspect as any whether people refuse to acknowledge it or not.
