Rewatching Trinindad-Oscar, in the second round Foreman comments that Trinidad is shocked by Oscar's shoulders and Larry is like "So?" "Why?" Might not sound like much but watch it and listen to the tone of his voice, he's like "George, what the **** are you on about?" haha

only a fighter could understand this, George is talking sense, Larry doesn't understand. When you are in there with someone who is your weight but, has huge shoulders it gives the impression they are much stronger and bigger therefore numbing your confidence.

It think that the poster is right. Everyone thought they could be Tyson until they got into the ring with him bc they seen how big and strong he was and could be. When you finally get into the ring with a guy that all of a sudden apears bigger than you it kinda does hurt your confidence.
