    Damn, don't casual fans say the darndest things :patsch

    I was watching the Wlad vs Haye with my friend who is only a casual fan. During the Wlad's ring walk he said 'Damn, this guy actually looks better than ever these days. I bet every ugly boxer wants to get in the ring with Lewis now! Medical science is crazy!'.

    Turns out the last time he saw a Klitschko fight was Vitali vs Lewis, and he had just assumed Lennox ****ed him up so bad that Vitali would need an emergency full face transplant after the fight - and the surgery was so good that they gave him Wlad's face! He didn't even realise they was brothers.:rofl Lewis TKO6 :patsch



    What funny things have you heard casual fans say about boxing?

    "Is Whitaker going to fight Tyson?"

    "I want him to win, he has prettier boxing trunks"

    "Why doesn't he just hit him?"


    "There's no such thing as a 10-10 round"

    "Leonard ducked Pryor"

    I talked to one guy who said boxing is just two guys swinging and hitting each other, compared to the asian martial arts which are 'artistic' and skillful.

    Also, "boxing is dead."

    "That guy is one fat ****" - When a casual fan sees Dan Rafael on their TV screen.

    That applies to fans as well as casual fans and non-boxing fans. Also this statement applies to the rest of humanity.~

    Dan Rafael IS a fat ****

    One of my friends once asked me if there was a certain combination of punches that separates a good fighter from a great one. That tickled me.

    Why aren't you bringing up your concerns in the actual thread rather than going completely off topic?
