    Anything Gander Tasco claims. 'Plaster does not improve punching power' :patsch:patsch:patsch:patsch


    My Mum said to me after one of my amatuer bouts : 'Scott, can't you try and fight without getting hit?'

    One day Mum :lol:

    I was at a club a few years ago. I stepped outside to smoke a cigarette and all of a sudden, this guy yells "there he is" pointing towards me. about 6-7 guys run at me and all I could do was hunch over and put my hands to cover my head and the sides of my body. I thought I was gonna get to the ER that night :)) in fact, they actually got more in each others way and they didn't hurt me one bit. I saw they stopped hitting and I uncovered my head and that's when one of the slapped (!) the living **** out of me sending me taking a few steps back. That's when they realized they had the wrong guy :patsch If I would have gone to the ground I would more than likely got disfigured

    Another one recently. . . The response to my question: "Who usually prevails when you have two boxers of equal ability - the outside fighter, or the inside fighter." RESPONSE: "Well, this is boxing, so the guy who fights on the outside. . . " Nahhh, NARY a thing as inside boxing. . . lol x 1000.

    He wasn't shot, he was damaged goods. Shot can't be fixed, damaged goods can be repaired.

    That has to be up there. I've heard some whoppers over the years that top that, but that one is fresh in the memory.

    My personal favorite is when some people use KO's or lack thereof as proof of steroid use.

    "How come so and so got hit with the right hand and didn't get KO'd but so and so did?"

    Going by that logic any fighter that has ever scored a knockout should win a fight with the first flush punch that lands.
