a looooong rear end time ago

A fight a couple weekends ago (maybe last weekend??) one of the guys wore a business suit with a button down shirt and tie to the ring. That was...an interesting look for a fighter.

Not in my experience. There are some idiot trainers who think doing weights makes you slow and stiff but most guys take the proper athletic approach of working everything.

yeah if your job was punching people in the face at minimum bodyweight you would too, big quads not helping much

It's not even about big quads or glutes a lot of your stance and speed comes from short bursts of pushing from your legs.

Fury is pummeling him. Wilder has no answer to the overhand. He was proper on queer street at the end of that round.
