        It's just the way they're built, but if they were measured then it must be true. i do agree though that a lot of faulse figures are given out about heights, but as i said he was measured.

          Then I'll take your and H.B.O.'s word for that. He's 5'11.

            Larry Merchant says it after the Tua vs Ruiz fight.

                Honestly.....I'd say he'd score high for his weight. But I'm 100% positive if a bigger man hit the same machine, he'd outscore him.

                That's why its so difficult to measure punching power. We know Tyson hit hard....because he was knocking out guys 230 plus.

                  I wonder what punch he used to score so high?

                  If i had to guess, it would be that Left hook of his, or even a right hook. Maybe an overhand right, maybe.

                  I cant see him using a straight right for some reason.

                    Jeff Lacy's best punch is his looping right.

                    That whole "left-hook" nickname is great...and he does have a nice left hook. But it's not his hardest, or best punch for that matter.

                      Lacy looks like a big super-middle, but he has a pretty narrow waist for his shoulders. I don't think he could go up to heavy-weight. Cruiser, yes, heavy-weight, no. I haven't really seen enough of him to know if he has the skills to overcome the size difference if he moves up. Usually the guys that can move up and be successful have the skills to make up for their lack in punching power. I mean, you can't be a slugger, even if you're a devestating slugger, and expect to be succesful against the bigger men. When it goes to punch for punch, they're probably going to out-hit you. I would take this talk of, hitting harder than the heavy-weights with a grain of salt. It's obviously meant to be a scare tactic, but probably has little validity.
