In a boxing context, what does the term "bum" mean to you?

not a high skilled level. The top fighters will beat them everytime.

 

some ***-git ("anyone can git it")who won't do the roadwork and eat properply to come in on weigh in and have his promoter pay for him being 5lb over weight limit (read, Broner) and have people be up on his nuts as the next SRR

 

Everyone is a bum in boxing. Unless you've just signed up to fight Floyd Mayweather. Then you suddenly become a world class, elite fighter.

 

:rofl

 

Example... Amir Fackistani Bum Khan

 

Completely untalented guys who leave their dayjob (if they have one) to make some extra cash fighting boxers who they have no business being in the same ring with.
That's the real defintion of a "bum".

But it's fun to use it for mediocre boxers who are massively overrated and/or have to face a topcontender next in a fight they're definitely going to lose.
And also to tease fanboys who only are supporting a fighter because he's from their country/area. Like Britbum, Cubum, Eurobum etc :yep

 

Fighters who have no discernable skill, talent, or positive boxing-ralted attributes, or are horrifically out of shape.

See: Chris Arreola

 

An early candidate for quote of the year.

 

'A step-up in class for Deontay'.

 

A very basic fighter with little to no ring IQ.

 

Your boy Amir Khan seems to fid this concept. With out his speed he really is nothing.

 

Not a fan of Amir Khan really and made it clear that he will always be a knockout waiting to happen.
