Why don't we have an objective way to meassure and compare fighters power?

[_Maxi]

We have their weights, reach, height... but not an objective way to meassure their power.

I think they should meassure that with a machine. At least the top guys. Someone should bring those machines and meassure the strengh of each kind of punch.

Nowadays with super slow motion cameras, we could also meassure they speed as they hit, and their defense speed. What do you think?

This would bring more excitement to the sport.

I never said on real time.

I know boxing fans have the lowest IQ of all sports fans but please at least try to understand what is being discussed.

power is literally one of the least important aspects of boxing.

Timing and accuracy is where its at....if you throw you best shot and its a millimeter off, or partially blocked, thats the difference between a ko or kd or nada


Power is overrated and you actually have to land for it to even matter. At the right time, posiion, technique, etc.


Hearns didnt become a puncher because he got super strong...as an am he was a pure boxer.....emmanuel steward taught him proper technique, balance, and placement of shots...he wasnt a born puncher, he learned how to.

Ask Algieri or Malignaggi if power is not important.

if power is so important then guys like Malagnaggi, Algieri, Willie Pep, Manuel Ortiz, Mayweather post 140, Meldrick Taylor and so many others wouldnt have been successful and champions


I didnt say power isnt important, it just is overrated because you have to land right for it to actually change the outcome of a fight.


Most times an elite boxer beats an elite puncher because they didnt fine tune the nuances, techniques and other parts of their game.

You let ko's come to you and most times when you force them you get clipped.
