Who do you think is physically stronger between prime Karelin and current Ngannou?

[Boss HM-2]

Not true. Fast twitching muscles and isometric strength is strongly correlated.

See here a perfect example of that

Loling @ the bro science

I didn't ask who would win in a wrestling match

Karelin would do that outside of a wrestling match as well.

 

[TerryBogard]

Karelin is stronger(roided of course) but he also moves like a slow robot.

 

[Noel Wards]

That filthy russian was having dirty commies stick needles up his ass. He wouldn't pass USADA today with their new anti-russian cheating technologies.

Francis has the superior genetics. And has been built by hard labour only found in the sand mines. He's stronger, faster, more skilled and overall a better athlete.

Ngannou Bless.

 

[DoctorsStoppage]

where is the evidence that Ngannou is strong. He is the most powerful puncher in the ufc, but we don't know if he is strong at all. As far as we know, he is one of the worst wrasslers in the division.
Karelin on the other hand is one of the strongest wrassling specimens, or probably the strongest.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Not at all

There are plenty of elite boxers known for their power that wouldn't be able to outlift your average gym bro

Someone who is insanely strong in lifting weight is also more likely to be stiffer when it comes to explosive movements

Can you say Deontay Wilder? Punches like he has dynamite for hands but isn't very "strong" in the gym sense.
