arm punches for lanky heavyweights may be a good thing lol.
theres so much power behind the jab already, all they need is speed in it...
(obviously not suitable for all, but it definitely is a big plus for long armed heavy weights)
This is one thing I've thought about Loma for a while. People talk about his power but he's not a great puncher by any means because he's mainly an arm puncher. It's a shame because he does everything else almost perfectly.
Than why did he drop Salcido Ko'd his first Opponent and snapped Russell head back to his A$$ in round 10 ?
Loma isnt an arm puncher. Like most good fighters he varies the speed and power of his punches. He was throwing his left in a pushing manner at times then he'd sit on it and smash Gary and throw a series of punches with bad intents and have Russell in trouble. He's got a very stiff jab too.
Bradley is definitely an arm puncher. Malignaggi too. They both CAN throw a proper ounch but they just dont have power. Margarito used to vary his offense between a lot of arm punches and good punches. Lamont Peterson can arm punch with the best of em but like Paulie and Bradley, even when he "sits down" on his its the same s hit lol.
