Whose the physically strongest fighter @ 140lbs and 147lbs right now?

[Kid Achilles]

The strongest guy in a boxing match is the one who can push the other around. What they lift at the gym, how big each guys muscles are etc. means nothing. all that matters is who has the physical capability to move the other in the clinches when both are trying.

Foreman was known for being super strong because the way he moved guys in the clinches. That's not mentality, that's Foreman being blessed with dense muscles and strong tendons and ligaments which enabled him to move guys his size around with ease because they lacked his anatomical gifts.

Bad example, considering both Cotto and Malignaggi have around the same amount of muscle mass. I'd say Cotto is stronger based on what I've seen from fights.

FYI Malignaggi is flexing his chest in that photo and Cotto is slumped.

Come on...Malignaggi looks bigger in every way in that photo...but he's nowhere NEAR as strong as Miguel Cotto.

Who is stronger run?

Based on looks alone....I'd say guy A.

He has more Bulk than the guy in photo #2 who has more defenition.

I read the first 2 pages but so far nobody has mentioned Shane Mosley. Shane by far is one of the strongest Welterweights around. I realize he's been at 154 for awhile but at 147 , Shane is an ox.

Look at how Mitchell is built. That implies strength, he's a big man for a little guy and that's why they gave him that nickname.

Regarding his nickname, he said, "Ring ****zine did an article on me when I was in college. At the time I was going to the University of Maryland. I think I was probably the only thing going on at the university then, the basketball team was nothing, the football team was always nothing until a few years ago. They called me the 'Little Big Man on Campus.' It just stuck with me."
