Floyd Mayweather’s Cornerman Names the Strongest Athlete Ever: It’s Not Floyd!

Boxing is a tough sport. It requires will and immense strength. Amongst other things, strength plays an important role in knocking out an opponent. Even when both fighters weigh the same, differences in power can exist, which at times may be a determining factor.

Nate Jones is a boxing purist. After being an Olympic boxer he went on to be a close aide to Floyd Mayweather. He has also been a cornerman for the undefeated fighter. Though, when asked about who he thinks to be the most powerful person he has met, it wasn’t Mayweather. Rather, he mentioned the former four-weight division champion.
