Boxers with big thighs and butts=brutal power

[Larry the boss]

Manny Pacquiao has humongous legs and calves but is not known as a devastating power puncher more of a soft arm flurry accumulation guy

look how many divisions his power carried up

[Larry the boss]

Completely false. GGG who has twig legs has power. Hopkins had twig legs had decent power. The ideal boxer physique is skinny legs and big upper body with a big reach. Wilder twig legs brutal power.

GGG nor Hopkins were 1 punch brutal fighters.and Wilder has the other kind of power that comes from length and extension..Hopkins and GGG power came from technique

Name me one boxer with big ass and thighs who cant crack

Chisora has a huge ass, doesn't really have great power for a heavy weight. Kinda below average

[gmc_rfc_06]

lol not in boxing. its usually the skinny wiry boxers who have the most power. we have seen plenty of musclebound boxers who cant crack an egg.

I didn't say muscle bound, I said 'strong' posterior chain.

At the lower weights, you won't find too many guys with a big lower body (you have guys like Pacquiao, Canelo, Brook, etc...which are exceptions), but that doesn't mean they don't have a strong posterior chain. Explosive power is as much about rate of force development (speed) as mass. 'Muscle bound' is Tim Bradley, he has a body building upper body, but it gets him nowhere in the power department, having chicken legs doesn't help.

It's at the higher weights that it becomes more apparent. Haye, Joshua, Klitschko, Stevenson, etc... A powerful, explosive, posterior chain is going to lead to a lot of power.

Don't forget thighs. Wide, big thighs always means huge power punchers:

gay thread. time to come out of the closet mate

[Mike D]

Wilder got chicken legs and he packs power. Julian Jackson/GGG don't have big bum/thighs and he has brutal power, same as Canelo. sometimes it depends on the quality of your opponents and how you sit on your lead foot when throwing.
