When you move up in weight you lose power?!

[TBear]

If you are weakening yourself to make weight, of course moving up will strengthen you. If champs move up just to win another tite at a weight that isn't natural they might lose power. Often it depends on who they face and how well they can take it.

Its all depends on your body type and how your body reacts to it.

So people lose, speed and power others gains. Its all depends

people always try to lift weights or get more muscular when they move up that's why.

it's a big mistake.

they don't really lose power. if anything they get more , it's just their opponents can take better punches in the higher division in comparison to their former division.

name me one fighter thats hit harder in higher divisions? Can;t use Pac cuz their cherry picken. Feel free to name some names.

ok ill name one if you can name another fighter who is 7th time champion in 7 weight classes, cant? of course you cant, theres only one manny pacquiao

If Duran was knocking down Iran Barkley or Ray Leonard was ko'ing Don Lalonde today we be subject to a thousand threads how it was unnatural.

If Bob Fitzimmons, a middleweight moved up and won the heavyweight title with one bodypunch today, we would get 10,000 Corbett fans starting thread after thread in the NSB. LOL

i've always thought you gain it or at least carry it. correct me if im wrong, but the heavier, the harder, right?

Floyd Mayweather Jr
...in his early years KO'd smaller boxers and dehydrated bigger guys.
...in wealterweight Fraud Jr beats bloated smaller lightweights, fights like a chicken bigger guys and ducks the elite welterweights like Pacquiao.


Summary:

Floyd Mayweather Jr is cherrypicking.
+ Xylocaine lol

Yes people can cut up to 20lbs, NCAA wrestlers cut more than that.

Has it ever entered into your sub-conscious thought, that times change and methods advance?

Get your head out of the ground and get with the times.

look at whos CURRENTLY getting busted and what their getting busted for. case closed. nice try. good luck.

[Bennett]

and ducks the elite welterweights like Pacquiao.

i would like to know how you can consider pacyow a elite ww when his first fight at ww is on saturday. in other words--HASNT HAPPEND YET. MANNY HAS NEVER FOUGHT AT WW SO HOW CAN HE BE AN ELITE WW IF HE NEVER FOUGHT AT WW YET?

It's not that you lose power, it's that your power isn't as effective at the next weight class as it is in the weight class you are leaving/left.... in most cases.

billy conn who started at lightweight and had several losses under middleweight later went on to become light heavyweight champion and almost became heavyweight champion.

he almost koed joe louis in a fight he was winning up until louis tagged him.
