    Guys, the sport would be really boring if everybody fought the same way. The contrast in styles is what makes the sport great.

    Postol is not as good as people thought he was............. A good boxer knows how to point score, not just brawl or jab..........no excuses.

    Boxing is a tough guy sport. The object is to take your hands and bash your opponent up over their head. And the whole point is to hit them so damn hard that you rattle their brain up against their skull rendering them groggy and in pain so that they cannot continue.

    That's the whole ****ing objective of pro boxing.

    Sounds like a stroll in the park doesn't it?

    The objective of pro boxing is to win boxing matches earn money and hopefully have a decent working brain when your career is over

    No the objective is to obliterate the opponent. You cannot lose a fight when you score a KO. The knockout is a pure victory.

    To prove your point about Ali, he would be called a runner for sure if this was a modern fight. People back then understood boxing.

    most athletes now are terrified of getting hurt. middle infielders in baseball close their eyes and stab at balls, rather then get in front of them. wide receivers pull up or knock passes down across the middle, rather than actually try and catch them. guys in hockey pull up short to a loose puck along the boards, rather then go get it and take the hit. how many guys in basketball will hold their ground and take a charge? athletes nowadays are far more athletic than days gone by, but have no heart.
