Looks like he just got in a scuffle at the star trek convention.

lol!!!

Hahaa... its the glasses and tha hair thats throwin yall off, he aint that bad of a fighter he got power... he just slow lol

well, if i'd look like that, i would better hope i knew how to fight. tell him to get some contacts and a haircut and he might look a bit more intimidating. even though, the element of surprise can be extremely effective in a fight.

He fights slightly meaner than he looks but at 188lbs I know I'd put a hurting on him.

All this talk about speed and power is like "what came first the chicken or the egg" to me. You can argue either way for a year and a half and never get anywhere. The real answer is timing which will always beat either speed or power alone. Speed and timing kills power and power and timing knocks out speed. If speed always won, then the heavyweight champion of the world would be one of those wing chun guys who can throw 6 punches in a second.

Speed+power+timing = Mike Tyson, Dempsey, or Joe Louis. Go up against someone like this and you are just ****ed.

not to offend anyone ...but

anyone who says "so and so" dosnt look like a fighter needs to readjust there smarts because ANY body can fight if they have to and you'd be suprised who'd be goofy looking enough to drop a hoss on you

[Kid Achilles]

That's a good point Joey. I made my comment only after I saw the sparring footage. I don't judge anyone by their looks alone. I've seen fat 17 year old girls at the gym who hit like men. One of the most explosive natural punchers I've seen in person was a woman. Her first day in the gym and she was exploding into the heavybag and pads like a man her size (around 180 lbs I think) who'd been doing it for a few months. One of the freakiest things I ever saw in a gym, probably the freakiest.

its an idiotic argument

speed and power work together to generate a force. everybody applies them in varying degrees.

great speed and average power will create equal force as great power and average speed. its a sliding scale is a sense, but you also have to look at it this way.

only very select people have either handspeed or power that can be qualified as exceptional. those people just possess natural abilities to make the physics work better, most everyone else is operating on a fairly even plane and training, working can only do so much.

also gotta say i cant believe jake was nice enough to pose for a picture of him looking goofy as **** with his nose busted all over his shirt, maybe he had a little concussion.....

does he know he is that pic is on a boxing forum?
