Re: Earl Boykins vs Shaq
Do you realize that every guy takes pride in his strength. Tell me someone doesn't, and your full of it. so of course there's temptation to lie. People also like to exaggerate. Guess you never heard or realized that before. And there is a definite correlation between size and strength. You're willfully being blind. Ever wonder why the guys that are lineman sized in the NFL lift more on than the dbacks? C'mon. Use your brain here. There is a varation within people of the same size, when it comes to strength, but only within reason. Thats why boxing and powerlifting have weight classes bro. Dude, you're making this way too complicated. I know you want to be right really bad, but all I'm saying is the obvious. When you lift weights, or lift heavy weights, you get bigger, your muscles do. And if you're a big guy, you lift more. If you're a teeny tiny little person, built more like a women, you don't lift much. Sure, Early is probably very strong for his body size, but that's about it. He's not built like Barry Sanders, for his height. Barry was also 5'8", kinda like Earl, who's 5'5". The reason Barry plays pro football and Earl plays basketball is Barry is bigger and stronger than EArl. Barry weighed close to 200 pounds, Early is a buck thirty five. You put Barry in the weight room, next to Earl, I guarantee he'd kill Earl, because he's bigger framed, has bigger muscles, etc. His weight reflects that. And as to your point, saying there are people that weigh 280 that can't lift much. Of course, if you're talking about a coach potato, that has 29 % body fat. No duh. But if you talk about a 280 pound like the guys in the NFL, that weigh that much not because their fat, but because their big boned, big MUSCLED, their gonna lift a lot. Its logic, bro. You can give me examples, but in every case, there's a reason for it. If Earl boykins had muscles like a Barry Sanders, I'd believe you. But Earl doesn't have muscles to prove his a lifter. Like I said, if you lift a lot, your muscles get bigger. You can tell when someone lifts, and lifts a lot, because it's reflected in their MUSCLE MASS. I hate to get technical, but some people just don't understand. Take Gary Trent in the NBA. He obviously lifts a lot, I guarantee you'd agree he lifts 315 +. Why? Because he's a big guy, and has big muscles. I know you get the point, but you're gonna argue anyway. But I'm not gonna just say, Oh ok, you're right. It's not like you've ever spotted Earl before, you're going by what some people say. We'll I know there's people that claim Santa Claus exists too. But unless there's somebody I know that saw Earl lift 315, I'm not gonna believe. Cuz it isn't sane to think that Early lifts that. and my Gary Trent argument proves it. Same for a guy like Jonathon Ogden. According to you, there's a good possibility that Ogden don't lift much. He's only 6'7" and about 350 pounds, but that don't matter, right? Please. Gimme a frickin break.
