    Did foreman ever break his hands?

    i ask because of the way he punched and the power with which he punched. take the ali fight for example he hit alis elbows alot of the time with his fingers middle knuckles(no the ones you are meant to punch with) i never saw or heard of him hurtig his hands and yet calzaghe who often punches with the same area of his hands, with much less power and always has hand troubles.

    so what do you think? lead shot in the handwraps?

    Some people have brittle hands by nature. Hence forth some people have osteoperosis (brittle bone disease)...

    Its all about the strength of your bones... not every individual is the same. I have never broken my hand, but some people at my age might have broken both. It also has some relevance to the amount of calcium in your diet.
