    Any guitar player in a band will tell you that he can lay down the most amazing riff and the audience will yawn and it will go pretty much unnoticed. He can take an easy riff and get dramatic and make it look hard and the audience will go "oh" and "ah", burst into applause and give a standing ovation. Of course this has nothing to do with what is being talked about. I just thought I'd throw it in cuz I had nothing else to say. :D

    I believe he is a brawler/swarmer... That doesnt mean he doesnt have skill at what he does. It just describes his fighting style.

    For example...every slugger/puncher doent just swing for the fences. Tyson was a skilled brawler in the eighties...

    That is the truth. Hard to face it huh?

    Pac is a great athlete, but not really a technician. Much like RJJ. The "gifts" are it. Now he makes up for it in dedication to his craft and also having the "gift" of a great chin. Unfortunately RJJ was not blessed with punch resistance.

    How dumb am I? Your point is?

    You are probably a closet Hatton fan and that hit close to home?

    You idiot this was a dumb thread to start. The answer was obvious. The "proof" was even more ignorant. If you are too simple to see that then oh well.

    Then again you are in Alaska...

    Beating barrera morales and marquez is not the task of a wreckless brawler.

    Wow...you want me to answer? Well, the answer is VERY ****IN DUMB,. You make no point. And as if a comment on Alaska means something? Here's what it means to me child. I can survive in cold ass weather and live off the land *****. The **** can you do other then talk **** on a computer?

    Here's a new flash junior... I am a fan of BOXING. And that includes a LOT OF FIGHTER. Hell, I was cheering for Floyd while you were still cheerleading for Degen X on WWF. ****in bandwagoner...:patsch
