canelo has agreed to fight chavez jr at 165lbs but doesn't want to fight ggg at 160 wtf is wrong with this guy.

bleh.. sucks. i still like canelo though.. maybe this is just another fight to help canelo believe he can take on someone of GGG's size. Chavez Jr. is big and hits hard, but he's slow and prepares for fights like a joke.. so canelo should be able to destroy him, should be impressive.. then maybe we will get to see GGG / Canelo.

I'll never entirely knock canelo, I think he's definitely legit and not someone who backs down.. but moving up in order to fight someone like GGG is a tough decision, GGG is a tank at 160 and just crushes people.. so Canelo might need to get a bit more experience with bigger guys like Chavez Jr before finally agreeing to step in there with the current p4p #1 (imho).

Everyone is afraid of GGG.. that's what makes him p4p #1 for me. Literally no one "important" wants to fight him.

Mayweather Jr. vs GGG would have been amazing, too bad we didn't get to see that.. matador vs bull (with matador skills).

Fun Fact

Running improves short term recall, and even long term to an extent.

Short term recall you run right before you read over what you want to remember, if you're learning something and you want to remember it say the next day, you run right after you learn that subject.

I've experienced that.. but i've also experienced not wanting to do anything before/after running - but I think that's a result of intensity. If I were to go out on nice leisurely runs, I think that'd be good for the brain & not not me mentally.

I used to listen to podcasts when i'd go on long runs, learned a ton that way.. Really enjoyed it. But now I don't run with anything - and i don't want to. Running with music/audio becomes somewhat of a dependency from my experience.

leisurely runs are probably the key for improving energy/focus/recall.

Adarq, ik you're kind of nerd AF with computers and I saw a laptop I'll eventually want.  I'll need your advice once they release the specs to make sure it's legit.

it's the razer "project Valerie"  basically what I like about it is it has 2 screens hidden behind the main one so you pull them out and you're rockin out 3 screens.

sheeit. yo ill check tmw. bout to quicklog and die.

generally speaking tho, if you need 3 screens, just get 2 monitors and hook up your laptop to it. probably alot cheaper that way and less dependence on razor. You can get a laptop with any specs and just attach multiple monitors.

it does seem cool tho.. you just dont want to be spending most of the money on the multiple screens part of it, and get gypped on the performance.

ahhh i remember now, his account is private. that actually makes more sense.

nice jump for 246 lb.

but ya i doubt he'd break 45" in his peak of oly lifting and jumping alot. there's definitely a possibility he could though.. 50+ tho??? nah.

It's interesting how some of the biggest SVJ numbers are from RB's and WR's. I think it's obvious with LB's and DB's having great SVJ as most of them have brute strength. I would expect the RB's and WR's to have awesome RVJ as they are lighter and would have better re-activity and speed than their heavier NFL counterparts. I guess that shows just how much power to weight they have though considering their SVJ numbers.

i'd put RB's in there with DB's though .. RB's are crazy in the brute strength department and usually weigh lighter/are shorter than LB's. WR's i'm definitely surprised though. I'd suspect they'd struggle a bit more given their "length".

ya man these dudes are such freaks. I haven't been watching the NFL combine much over the last few years, but I do watch the highlight videos of the best performances.

A combine where athletes from various backgrounds competed in SVJ, RVJ, 40 yard dash, broad jump, pushups/dips, pullups, and fuck it, an 800m run.. would be sick. :D

claimed 50+ vertical. could in fact jump pretty high, but stills purporting to show him jumping head-over-rim were really just pictures of him after grabbing the rim, doing a pull up and launching himself up from there. faaaaaker.

Didn't someone call it Penisgate or something because people noticed his junk was going the wrong way in that picture? lol

penisgate, the precursor to pizzagate. and ya i think that someone called it that. His penis being "upwards" in most photos reinforced the idea that he hung from the rim and kinda 'threw himself off' while posing to get the frame. For any future vert fraudsters, make sure you lock your penis down. :/

I realize we lost alot of that info when TVS went down.

Was going thru Klokov's instagram and i came across a vid he put up of him trying a vertec, he got 36" btw. I imagine at his peak as an athlete and if he trained for the vertical leap he'd have like a 60" vertical or something? just found it interesting. dude fucks around and hits 36" smh. no link available, you'll have to follow him to see it, it's private

if by 60" you meant 40"? typo? lmfao!!

also, this is perhaps the worst post i've seen on this forum.. next time please provide a link, i want to see it without searching!! WTF!

:D

I imagine at Klokov's peak he might be able to hit a legit <= 42" or so.. much lower than the debated 60". He's probably alot lighter now (correct?) than when he competed (105kg after weight cutting), he also lifts & trains pretty hard still.

I'd say these NFL freaks have a better chance at setting "world records" in legit SVJ than pretty much any other type of athlete.. They are fast twitch monsters, sprint/accelerate all day, lift hard etc. NFL db's seem to be the perfect specimen for SVJ.. though some of the biggest SVJ numbers are from RB's, WR's and LB's.

awesome article:

http://www.cheatsheet.com/sports/what-are-the-highest-vertical-jumps-in-nfl-scouting-combine-history.html/?a=viewall

Lots of defensive backs (corners, safeties) etc.. That back pedaling & those quads. But still massive number (45) for Cameron Wake @ 45" being a line backer.

These dudes are insane.

If I had to choose between NFL vs Olympic Weightlifters in an SVJ competition, i'd go with NFL. I think the speed component is what gives them the edge. Oly Lifters are perhaps "slowed down" just enough to affect their SVJ technique in regards to reaching their peak potential. Meanwhile, these nfl guys are always just primed and ready to launch with speed/power. They lift heavy/hard but they aren't at all overly adapted to it & thus slowed down like an elite weightlifter/powerlifter would be.

I'd love to see SVJ competitions or something though, then we'd really see.. Athletes from different sports/disciplines competing for $$ with SVJ.
