David Haye and Jeff Lacy prove that lifting weights is bad for a boxer

Being overly muscled can be bad. However I don't think Haye or Lacy have that terrible stamina, although Lacy is a bit ponderous. I could be wrong but didn't Lacy claim he never lifted weights? I don't believe it myself though, just looking at him. Many boxers lift weights, but it shouldn't be the major part of your training. See Shannon Briggs... there are people that have seen jeff lifting plenty and heavy weights, so good thing you dont believe cuz it aint true

I dont think it effects all boxers the same. Take Khan for example, pre-prescott the guy was top heavy. VERY top heavy. It effected his game a lot. The kid had no muscle in his lower body, to which a boxer should have. How UK trainers did not see this is beyond me. Afterwards ofcourse his game has improved a lot and he is now evenly balanced i should say. Now, Take Juan Urango for example. Being built like a tank i think worked perfectly for him. He was never a slickster and relied only on his strength. Which got him Two World Titles. It can vary.

Since when does lifting weights make your arms heavy? When you gain muscle your body has the STRENGTH to support "heavy" arms. RETARD. Which means they arent heavy at all. Do any of yall even work out? you will definitely feel heavier when you gain weight, you may be stronger, but when you get tired, you'll really get tired

Hopkins barely built any muscle, does he look like a body builder to you? We're talking about two completely different extremes. Look at Shannon Briggs then look at Hopkins, then look yourself in the mirror and realize what a dumbass you are. Two different extremes? Barely built any muscle? He came in at 174 lbs (next heaviest to date). Haye is a heavyweight, 231 lbs (316 lba when he fought Valuev), of course he's going to look bulky. Don't get so sore and tacky cause everyone is pissing on your little parade. You thought you were being smart and controversial - we think you're being a silly dick. Best regards.

They have no stamnia and poor work rate. When you lift weights your arms get heavy and tired. Jeff Lacy and the new David Haye prove that. smh at how ignorant people are. Its a shame that so many people think weightlifting is bad for a boxer.

comparing one of the heaviest steroid users in modern sports (briggs, noted to be using about 10,000.00 USD worth of steroids from balco weekly) to a blown up middleweight /light heavyweight legend who never gets fat where's proof of Briggs steroid use?

Mosley=Roids Tyson=only lifted weights after he came out of prison and he was noticeably slower and had no stamina Sugar Ray Robinson also lifted weights. George Foreman. Roy Jones. Andre Ward.

Mosley lifts weights. Tyson lifts weights. Gimme a break. Mosley=Roids Tyson=only lifted weights after he came out of prison and he was noticeably slower and had no stamina

Mosley lifts weights. Tyson lifts weights. Gimme a break.

^^^^^Wrong Haye is the fastest HW since Ali :nonono::rofl::rofl: Yeah I couldn't believe I heard that. Haye actually lost speed and I noticed that from the 1st round; then to hear that :nonono:

what about shane mosley? his movement is awkward and not fluid, but he's still fast and hits hard Mosley reverts back to the Holyfield like of reasoning: Steroids.

Yeah, I agree here but TS is right to a certain extent. Haye has gotten too bulky and has lost his overall speed. He looked sluggish and his movement; MY GOD; his movement wasn't the same, so slow on his feet. One could never expect him to get close to Wlad/ Vitali with that slow movement. He needs to stop getting bulkier; he looked alot better against Barret. ^^^^^Wrong Haye is the fastest HW since Ali :nonono::rofl::rofl:

They have no stamnia and poor work rate. When you lift weights your arms get heavy and tired. Jeff Lacy and the new David Haye prove that. not true....

Bold statement. Hopkins dropped his daily running routine and started to lift weights when he moved to LW and prepared for Tarver. He was stronger than ever and faster in that fight. There are numerous ways to build up muscle without losing speed, agility and stamina. Hopkins barely built any muscle, does he look like a body builder to you?
