Let me make sure I got that right:

John: How do you punch so hard?

Rampage: Me? How I punch so hard? I put my ass in it. Cuz I try to knock you on YOUR ass....It's all about ass.



From now on, this is how I'm answering EVERY question anyone I train with asks.

Does that guy do that howling thing all the time? I haven't seen him fight before.

I mean no disrespect to him as a MAist, but the howling is quite annoying and would be enough to make me root for whomever he is fighting against.

HAHAHA! I was actually thinking the same thing about the howling. Does he do it before matches? If not for the ass comment, I would hate the guy.



But hey I got a question for yall! I've always been a big proponent of speed over power, but I thought of something the other day...why is it that heavy weight boxers end their careers with all kinds of brain damage, while fly weights end up fine? I had always thought it was because fly weights dodge better, and their hits don't cause as much damage.

So according to this video, fly weights must therefor be punching much slower then heavy weights.

Something about this doesn't sound right to me. I dunno, it's late. Anyone have any say on this?

its because they dont have as big muculature as the heavy wieghts

so the punch doesnt deliver as much power

another factor is the mass is lower

these two things make the fly wieghts punches weaker

Man, Rampage rocks!!!! One of my favorite fighters. He's got great skills and a personality to boot. He is one funny mofo. You need to see vid clips of all his interviews (get Chief to find them for you...lol)

I've always been a big proponent of speed over power

Speed IS power, more or less.......
Pope Wingnut is correct.

that was a stupid study.

they just calculated the sumo score based on straight math, which doesn't apply here, not least of all because they're comparing an actual measurement taken by a sensor v. well... a bad estimate.
