Simple...because, when you are at an obvious physical disadvantage, you go to what your advantages are (speed, counter punching ability, defense), you dont stand and rough it out with the bigger, stronger, harder puncher. THAT IS RIDICULOUS!!!! Its like the people who call Whitaker a runner (tho Calderon aint no Sweet Pea, but you get what I mean), when he regularly threw 100+ a round....always seemed to mix it up when needed....and worked exclusively off his amazing jab. Ask yourself something....if Sweet Pea fought like Mike Tyson, with his size and power disadvantages.....would we even know his name? Its called fighting to your strengths and its smart boxing...not running.
what!!!!! mate i was on your side!!! i was just copmmenting on how loads of guys just are voting yes and than disapearing while anyone who knows tactics in boxing are leaving a post....wrong end of the stick
fuk i just noticed i said no instaed of yes now i see where we went into different directions...sorry my man...jah bless
most ridiculous thing I've ever heard considering he situation and the match up for Calderon. Calderon steps up and fights a hard opponent..gives him a clinic and then you get people who ***** and moan about how he fought? I'm not accusing people in particular but there are people running around crying about this. Its sad.
Calderon boxed the way a little man fighting a much bigger man would...but he did not run...Cazares just wasn't able to connect cleanly for most of the fight...he would lateral around cazares and used great head movement.
