chicken legs

[chargerhemi06]

How come boxers in the smaller weight classes don't work out their legs?
For example,
Jm Marquez
Floyd
Austin trout
Tim bradley
Adrien broner
Danny garcia
ggg

I mean you would think in a sport where your legs are important they would work them out and make them stronger instead of just doing abs and shoulder/back work outs.

floyd has great legs, footwork 1 of his best attributes

That's just the way Floyd's built.

chicken legs indeed

Marquez does squats and plyometrics.

Don't need to. Bigger muscles make you tire easier.

But wouldn't you think if they make their legs stronger they would be even better fighters. Instead they just neglect them.

I'm not saying they gotta be like Mr Olympia legs.

But these guys look like they don't do anything. Not even a calf raise

its called Genetics. size doesn't equal strength although it does help

I work out 5 days a week(weights) outweigh floyd by 40 pounds and he has the same if not bigger calfs than me same with his neck
