I'm still confused how guys like paulie malignaggi has zero punching power whereas these oridinary non muscular looking guys like erik morales, diego corrales, naseem hamed, danny garcia, marcos maidana, felix trinidad have/had this abnormal punching power where they are/were able to drop their opponents with one punch.
Guys like Klitschko, Tyson, Foreman, prime RJJ, Golovkin, Alvarez you would expect strong punching power because of their size and muscles.
It's not like Malignaggi has no muscles. What is he doing so wrong that gives him 0 punching power?
There was a time when the true eastern euro nuthuggers (not the fake ones that have appeared since May 2nd) were saying Fedchenko was the real ww champ and Mayweather and Pac were just imposters holding belts hostage. Then he got ktfo by Paulie and Broner became a four weight champ :rofl:
He definitely doesn't look like he ever puts anything on his punches at all. Last fight I saw with him and Danny Garcia he couldn't even throw a right hand , he didn't even try to throw a good power shot to make Danny respect him , he just kept circling with his big eyes staring throwing a weak jab the whole fight. Perhaps if he mentally committed to throwing his shots with more power he could of punched harder in his career.
Technique and torque. Paulie dosen't put his weight and his body into the punch where as someone like ggg does.
But If he did put his weight on his shots his hands would break. Its also genetics. Paulie has small girly hands that cant withstand the impact of hitting someones head full force.
Imagine if Broner had Pacquaio's stamina, output, weird angles ,footspeed and heart. Broner would be a legend if it weren't for all these things that he lacks.:boxing:
Paulie is a better total package than Broner. Paulie had EVERYTHING but power.
He had charisma/a personality,was stylish and flashy,talked ****..he also had a chin,a huge heart,excellent footwork/handspeed,excellent ring generalship and counter punching,good stamina,wasn’t a drinker/smoker/druggie. He didn’t have a huge entourage and trouble/distractions out of the ring. He didn’t get fat between fights. He had no legal trouble,no baby mammas,no bs in general.
His lack of power ruined him because at the highest level he couldn’t keep guys off him. Had Paulie been born with decent pop, he’d be a legend amongst fans.
Imagine if Paulie had Adrien Broner type power? Scary. Dude would of been a legend.
Imagine if Broner had Pacquaio's stamina, output, weird angles ,footspeed and heart. Broner would be a legend if it weren't for all these things that he lacks.:boxing:
Naseem Hamed was an anomaly to be honest, according to Eddie Hearn who used to hang around with him at the time, when Hamed was 15 he was able to KO nightclub bouncers on nights out.
Cant credit everything on hand problems. Accordng to Khan he fought the last 13 years with
a broken hand and was able to hurt and knock some guys out lol.
This.
I believe he f#cked up his hands as an amateur before he even turned pro so his hands were bs. Respect for him winning two titles with no power & everyone knowing he didn't have any power.
Yup.
It's pretty goddamn impressive, what he was able to accomplish, without being able to knock a hat off your head.
Imagine if he had power, what he'd have done.
