Boxers with big thighs and butts=brutal power

[deathofaclown]

There's no real way of knowing. For every guy you name with "big thighs and butt", someone else can name a skinny looking fighter than can also crack.

Sometimes people are just heavy handed, some just have great technique. Some fighters are willing to sit down on their shots more than others too.

Not about the size but the strength and power they can generate. Many wiry skinny fighters generate big power due to having explosive muscles. Especially in weight based sport like this

Ultimately timing and technique is the most important factor imo

Wilder generates energy in exactly the same way a windmill does.

Well your legs produce the most free testosterone while weight training. I know in HS my P.E. teacher for weight lifting always said if we are going to test our max on the bench press to do a set of squats first, typically you should get about a 5lb increase by doing so. So I can totally see how big glutes and thighs equate to more power. But a tall/lanky frame is still better for boxing.

Ether be long levers, or a strong robust core! these are the two physiological factors that effect punching power. Your core muscles comprise of every muscle in your mid section, and all of your posterior chain! your core muscles are like the chassis on a formula one car, without a good chassis? the power generated will not be utilized! and the athlete will not be robust and durable (You are only really as strong as your core lets you be!)....

Boxers with long levers, seem to be better at generation power from a distance! where as boxers with thick strong mid sections, and robust cores? are overall more devastating punches from mid to close range! Fighters like Mike Tyson, David Tua, David Haye fall into this category...
