Do you believe when a user here says just rewatched this full fight again?

    Personally, i have a large library of fights on tape, dvd and data dating right back to the late sixties.
    And if i want to re-watch a fight (most of the time when someone's round my house who hasn't seen such and such a fight from whatever year, or some historic clash, or indeed; a fine example of an under the radar tear up from yesteryear.....or yesterday!) then i will happily re-watch the entire fight.
    With recent fights, especially one where there may be controversy or too much excitement on the night, i will always re-watch that week to get a more grounded perspective.
    I cant speak for others....

    If a person has it recorded, and it's a 12 round fight. Would take them like 40-45 minutes to watch a full fight.

    This is a stupid question that shoulnd't have to be asked on a forum of moderately intelligent boxing fans. If you just watch highlights of a fight you don't have a right to express an opinion about said fight.

    so true

    the Adamek-Arreola highlight is a good example, Arreola's face was a bloody mess, and they hardly showed Adamek landing any of his many combination's that busted Cristobal's face up

    Mostly when a thread like that is created the person in question starts it with an agenda, and if he watched the full fight he did that with an agenda also.
    In only a few cases the poster really wants to discuss the actual events in the fight from a boxfan's standpoint.

    Usually they are a fan of, or really dislike one of the fighters (or sometimes both). So it doesn't really matter if they did or didn't watch the whole thing, they just want to get their opinion across wich they already made up before they even started watching it.

    Are you crazy:huh:huh:huh

    This board is filled with casuals. These guys take the first stereotype of a fighter and roll with it for a decade.

    They are even bigger haterz than they are nuthuggers.:-(

    I tend to just read what everyone else has said, and go along with what seems to be the consensus.

    It's best to be as vague as possible as to how you scored the fight, to avoid dropping a bollock and making it obvious that you haven't actually seen it.

    Life is too short to watch **** fights when you already know the winner.
