Harry Joe Yorgey - the comeback!

Ruptured tendon or not, Alfredo Angulo sparks him.

Good luck to him though.

 

he had a dui around my way a couple years ago...

 

Cool and all, but, honestly, wtf does Yorgey's ankle have to to with being obliterated by Angulo?

Did Yorgey's messed up ankle mess with his chin or something?

Not trying to be a dick, I just am not a fan of excuses, for a fighters loss. As I've seen that the fighters usually with legit excuses, don't bring them up after a loss.

 

I don't know how any man on earth comes back from this display of bobbleheadedness:

This should make any sane person say to themself, "you know, I don't think boxing is for me". But I guess we're not talking about sane people, we're talking about boxing.

A fair amount of time HAS passed since, though, and Yorgey DOES have minimal skills that look good at a journeyman level. We shall see.

The commentary was dead on!

 

Good luck to Harry. I just hope he doesn't get seriously hurt. The beating he took was the kind that does long term damage to a fighter, and not just mentally.

 

A ruptured tendon in his ankle didn't stop him moving around the ring the way he did against angulo, to be honest with you mate excuses are common place in boxing and your boy got destroyed at the hands of a better fighter, would it not be better to accept that rather than come up with excuses?

 

I agree and disagree. Excuses are to be hush-hush, period. Suck it up and go out there and get it done. Either run your mouth and opt out of the fight using excuses as your shield, or shut your mouth and make the most of what you got while the opportunity, that so many others would kill for, presents itself. Don't go in there with pre-planned excuses. Either pull out or don't. Boxing fans don't care about your injuries, hence, they are boxing fans, and the last thing they want to be bothered with is excuses. That's the etiquette.

Buster Douglas didn't use his mother's death as an excuse, but rather motivation. I'm sure the death of one's mother is just as painful as whatever the **** somebody can do to your ankles, the exception being that one scene in the movie Misery.

But a bad ankle in boxing ruins your footwork and distracts you mentally. More importantly, power punches, the ones that you sit on, start from a twist of the ankle, and work themselves up to the knee, then hip, then back, working as a crankshaft, sending all that artistic motion into the shoulders and arms, which do nothing but finish punches that all began from the floor and worked themselves up.

 

:rofl:rofl

 

Angulo damn near killed this dude!!

 

Does yorgey want a re-match with angulo now that hes 100% healthy?? LMAO

 

Angulo could have multiple injuries and the flu and he would still ICE yorgey!

 

Good luck

 

good luck

 

Now Paul Sheldon, if he had had a fight schedulled anytime in the near future, following the below clip, I would think even the most sadistic boxing fan would let HIS excuse fly:

But like I said earlier, I've heard of built in excuses, but who the hell would go into a fight with a bulit in excuse like that one? A sane person would pull out, but dammit, would not therefore be a boxer.
