Holy crap! Just found a clip of Jack Dempsey and Rocky Marciano shadow boxing, and hitting the bag together.
Wtf, I just seen a video of Jack Dempsey dressed as a baby, and crying like a baby in front of the camera. I've gone too deep...
Nice to see you've mellowed .. What's to say other than the obvious .. you're not as knowledgeable as you try to position yourself when others get to see the same films you hoard. Johnson held like I've never seen a fighter hold, pretty much two to two and a half minutes a round .. he threw some shots in the early rounds that were sharp but not hard looking .. Flynn never seemed to even notice them .. Flynn was far more successful going to the body and occasionally the head than Jeffries or Ketchel were .. after five or six rounds of Johnson doing next to nothing but clinching Flynn got angry and started the butting ... he was never hurt, looked in better condition and it was anyone's fight .. I saw absolutely zero of the "terrible beating" some claim Johnson dished out .. it is completely conceivable to me that the inactive and less than stellar conditioned Johnson could have worn down in such a fight over a long period .. it's worth noting that the 15th round of Reno was the last time Johnson would knock down any form of quality heavyweight. Also that Johnson looked sub-par in his next bout against Jim Johnson, a fight many claim he lost. Im actually a huge Johnson fan but he was clearly a different fighter post Reno ..
Johnson wasn't doing next to nothing. He was landing shots on the inside every round, and tagging Flynn on the way in every single time. You think Flynn looked in better condition? Johnson was absorbing everything. And when Johnson decided to turn it up, he was 3x faster than Flynn. This wasn't anyones fight. Johnson proved to be a level above at 38:20 and 36:00.
Anyone holding for 120 to 150 seconds a round is not dominating anything .. can you show me one time Flynn looked hurt and didn't walk through Johnson's powder puff shots ? He threw like Ali in the late 70's , nothing on his shots at all ..
The Klompton/Hegrant feud inspired me to look at this, but i get nothing but music. Am i doing something wrong?
Ever jab snaps his head back. Johnson was landing flurries of beautiful combos without going for big KO blows. Again, 36:00 and 38:20 are good examples of Johnson doing serious damage to Flynn.
The underlined is one of the most unintentionally hilarious remarks you have ever made and that is really going some! One question for you, just one. How many rounds did Flynn win before the stoppage?
