Annoying Boxing Cliches

"Intangibles"

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

It does come in handy sometimes though, especially when someone is saying Maidana stands no chance against Khan, because Khan beat the guy who beat Maidana. You can always throw your analysis of the fight in as well of course.

 

"Brutal KO"

WTF is that all about?

 

ive trained like a challenger

 

'Its a game of two halves'

 

after a boxer suffers a good KO.
"his punch resistance has gone"

 

As opposed to all those soft, gentle knockouts.

 

Yup!

 

'who wants it more'

 

'im in the best shape of my career' zzzzzzzzzzzz

 

'Gunna bring my A game'
Or anything that comes from Degales mouth.

 

Makes sense. As opposed to a soft stoppage, or someone deciding they can't be arsed getting up. Like Pac/Hatton. Bang, lights out before Hatton hits the deck, brutal KO.

A phrase I'd like to see stamped out is 'good whiskers'. If he has good whiskers then growing a beard should make him invincible, no? Ditto the word 'chinny'. What like Bo' selecta's Craig David? All chin?

 

Nah, people actually PREDICT that fights will end in a "brutal KO", as if using "brutal" enforces and adds weight to their pick.

 

'glass jaw' is also annoyingly overused on here
