Connect Four: Boxing Edition

Okay, so am I dating myself here? This game was all the rage when I was little. Nowadays the equivalent in concept would probably be Candy Crush - but that's just too gay for me to endorse.

Here's the idea - take four boxers who are similar enough stylistically and in physical attributes to be effectively "pallete swaps" of each other resized to scale.

I'll start...

• Jesus Soto Karass, Leo Santa Cruz, Antonio Margarito & Librado Andrade:
• Tall, lean rangy Mexicans (in Andrade's case, technically Mexican-American) with limited defense but iron chins & extremely high-volume attacks liberally mixing in body work to grind opponents down, with a commensurate gas tank allowing to keep this up for the long haul and for three minutes of every round...all heavy-handed but not one-punch KO artists.

 

Play my game you pricks. :deal

You've nothing more pressing to discuss on a slow Wednesday.

 

I don't know what that means but it sounds legit!

Everybody but Mirko, on blast!! :cus

 

:thumbsup

 

You were off to a good start but Pacquiao has none of the hallmarks concatenate between Tyson & Frazier (bobbing & weaving, low center of gravity, big left hooks) :yep :nono

 

I dig it!

I can see where you're coming from putting them all together. I'll leave it to you to spell out the connections for those who aren't familiar with all of them or lack the imagination to see the qualities that carry over in their minds.

 

Come on dude, you know this place is like kindergarten.

Everything's gotta be applesauce consistency.

:happy :deal
