Tell THAT to Manny Pacquiao (regarding workrate)
U -R right. Pac has shown a gr8 workrate, but different from whom? Paul Williams and Margarito's workrate at one point was about 100 thrown per round. Then watch Norman Hayes vs Jake Lamotta, there were no punchstats then, but if I could estimate maybe 110 per round. Mickey Ward vs Drunken warrior averaged 100 plus per round. HW's Ike vs Tua averaged 80 per round. Pac is an example of what has already been happening. Era dont dictate workrate. Individuality does.
Tell THAT to Gennady Golovkin (regarding dynamite)
Why? he is a great prospect looking to do what others b4 him has done: KTFO's have long been a staple of the MW division. See Gerald McCellan 85% KO ratio. see Jr. Middleweight KO artist Julian Jackson- he is THE HUMAN ONE PUNCH HIGHLIGHT REEL 49 KOS out of 55 wins.
And as for the 100 KO's, the reason is the same as for WHY they could perform as they did perform...
They fought opposition so abysmally poor, hardly any if any of them would ever step foot in a boxing ring with a top rated professional, let alone not get knocked out well within 12, let alone 15!
Obviously nobody could have so many fights against good opposition.
