Boxers who fight "scared"?

When I watched the Dirrel-Abraham fight. I never thought he was scared, I did however think he was beginning to fade. While that slip on the canvas was certainly helped by advertising Dirrel was also tiring. Which, if correct is somewhat worrying given his style.

 

To OP, I'd love to know how ANY fighter, let alone the elites you mentioned, can fight "scared" in a boxing ring. Being in the ring itself, ready to exchange blows, proves that that they aren't scared of much. You ever been in the ring? Do you know how hard it is to fight defensively? I know Floyd makes it look easy but most fighters would get their **** pushed in if they tried to fight like him.

 

He's scared to get his arms hurt. He blocks with his face.

 

calderon, and everyone who fought mike in his prime.

 

Apparently not... He would be making threads like this!:-(

 

Anyone fighting a prime Tyson.

 

I'm just calling you out as someone who doesn't know what they're talking about.:hi:

 

Wait, Mayweather fights scared? Mayweather is one of the most relaxed fighters in the history of the ring. Roy Jones too? Roy only fought scared after he was layed out by Tarver. Dirrell? Yeah, he fights scared, in my opinion. The other two guys you mention, I just don;t see it that way. And no, I am not a big Mayweather fan. I am rooting for Mosley. Though, I think it will be Mayweather W12.

 

Take it easy on the guy...His boney ass hasnt laced them up! Just a sideline judge that will never get hit in the face!:rofl

<<<<<<<<<<< My AV MUST BE THE MOST SCARED FIGHTER OF ALL TIME LOLOLOL!!!!! GTF outta here. It's about being defensive minded and gameplaning. Dirrell had a gameplan to move and box. Froch got dirty and messed the gameplan up as dirrell proceeded to hold. Late in the fight showed what dirrell was capable of because froch couldn't hit dirrell even when dirrell decided to start whipping froch's ass in the CHAMPIONSHIP ROUNDS.

For abraham dirrell learned from his mistakes and came with a good strategy against abraham. Be agressive and bring it to him making him uncomfortable and when he swings make him pay so he will be reluctant to load up on any punches he might throw. Dirrell did this and abraham was not loading up on his shots in fear of getting counted bad even late in the fight when he was pressing. If you look at the knockdown that was not called. Dirrell wasnt hurt and more off balance because of the feet after he was hit by the right hand. Abraham barely put anything on that punch. He was arm punching even up till the DQ. Dirrell had the skills to come out of trades landing the better punch and mostly only punch against abraham. His throwing in the middle of his opponents combinations, landing and not being hit show you the kid has greatness in him. He's still getting better and learning. You will see when he beats ward.

 

The one who is really afraid of being hit ... Floyd
