    Colombian powerpunchers

    Is it me, or does every Colombian fighter out there have extremely heavy hands? Teddy Atlas touched on the subject last Friday night, saying that their records are bloated but the power is for real. The problem is they are all very limited as boxers. Think about it, Edison Miranda, Dionicio Miranda, Ricardo Torres, Juan Urango, hell, even the guy who fought Lacy recently. It seems like every time I tune in and there's a Colombian fighter I jokingly say " He must have heavy hands, " and not 2 minutes later the commentators are warning the viewers about his power. Agree, disagree? Any other Colombian fighters?

        The main undercard for the Cotto fight had some Colombian fighter win a belt. Cant remember his name but he didnt have much power from what I seen.

              Man, Richardo Torres hands so heavy he'll try to give you a high five and send you to the hospital with a fracture in 5 different places.
