    I can't think of any boxers that don't arguably have wide shoulders and a narrow waist..they all trim themselves down so it looks the part anyhow.

    Arguably Pacquiao doesn't have very wide shoulders, but It would be because of his big head giving an illusion....he's got what 34-35 ko's? at different weight classes to

      You just need to hit the person when they don't see it coming.

      This thread is sorta of pointless though because almost all boxers have wide shoulders and broad backs.



      Hearns didn't have big thighs for most of his Career, unless you mean later on.

      Hearns power came from the velocity he threw it at. Punching power could come from a strong back etc, but KO power is a thing on its own, it can be strength or speed that creates it.



      Those are pretty big thighs.

      And knocking out a fighter is not just by hitting him blind although it does have a big factor if you throw the punch correctly.

        Those don't strike me as big thighs really, maybe ripped but big? no.

          First off all nonheavyweight boxers of any note are in good shape and have a some what \_/ shape to them. Its like saying all boxers with power had six-packs.

            Its the legs that hold the power

            Tito trinidad had the narrowest of shoulders and no muscle, but he had good technique.

              These are small legs.



              Kronk fighters generally have small calves and large thighs.



              Both are of Mark Breland, before and after he joined Kronk.

                    I started hitting the heavybag 2 weeks ago and the middle of my back is sore as **** including the traps and shoulers area.

                    Anyone who lifts weights knows how hard it is to hit the middle back and get that part sore hopefully I can have a thicker back like miranda.

                    Don't know about your back thickness but your skull seems to be progressing nicely.

                      Different fighters are gifted with different assets. It's how they use those assets that makes the difference.
