I didn't say I never got stronger... my punch never got that much stronger. Punching power can be improved... but a puncher is born a puncher. I can't say I was blessed with the quickest feet... but I am one of those that punch unusually hard for his size.

I could lift a hell of a lot more weight when I was 158 and focusing on weights. That weight just wasn't natural for me though and my stamina suffered... and plus I gave up the reach advantage that I often have.

Many boxers don't use weights at all in their program... they aren't necessary at all.
