Wassup With Todays Heayweight Physiques?

[JimRaynor]

Andy Ruiz



Adam Kownacki



Tyson Fury



Dillian Whyte




These guys are all in the top 10!

[HitmanTommy]

Yes....... It is interesting isn't it? Back in the 90's pretty much all of the fighters in the top 10 (other than foreman) were in shape

Tyson
Holyfield
Bowe
Lewis
Bruno
Tua
Buster
Ruddock
Briggs
ibeabuchi

Why so many of them look like fat slobs is beyond me.

Maybe because they can get away with being fat slobs because the vast majority of the physical freaks went to the NBA and NFL would be my guess.

[Damn Wicked]

Have you seen that fat bums that Mike Tyson was KO'ing in the 1980's?

Tua, Foreman and many more were morbidly obese during the 90's too, but they obviously had muscle under all that flab.

I take nothing away from these guys in terms of skills and power. Just saw the Kownacki Washington fight, that guy not only can take a punch but dishes it out pretty well, but with that body he is about two times slower than what he could be if he actually lost 20 pounds.

[Larry the boss]

fat and lazy in a horrible era

[Earl-Hickey]

You've got fat guys with skill and athletes who aren't that skilled

What you don't have is skilled athletes

[SN!PER]

This man went 10 rounds with Larry Holmes.

And knocked him down in the 10th round.
