Kovalev is skinny strong as some people like to say.
Sergey Kovalev's build - Describe it.

^^^^ This!!! No bull**** weight lifting going on here..That muscle is developed from punching deep through the bag...Just watch any of his training videos.. One of the only fighters today that actually works the heavybag for power effectively.Comment

Sergey probably has high bone-density. Gym-bunnies would call him small, but big arms do nothing for punching power except slow you down and tire you out faster. Your toes are much more useful in boxing than your biceps. He has a rather large head too.Comment

Good post will Green kComment

I agree with you, the old saying of punchers being born not made comes to mind.He's rangy. Presumably his power comes from a combination of natural genetics, technique and torque.
Another fighter with a similar build comes to mind, Kelly Pavlik. His physique was underwhelming but he brought the pain....he was responsible for the beginning of the end of to Taylor's promising career.Comment

He looks pretty damn strong to me. You don't need to be as muscular as Bradley to punch hard. It's more about punching speed and proper technique. It's also about putting maximum bodyweight behind you punches which Krusher K does well. In fact muscleman Bradley doesn't punch all that hard.Comment

Agreed with pretty much everyone here. A true Fighter's physique, no BS weight-lifting, focus solely on the muscle groups needed. Great technique, and yes, probably very high bone density.
Take a group of 10 random people who DKSAB and show them the Kov-Pascal weigh-ins, how many do you think would bet on Kovalev?Comment
