    You probably should realize, this is boxing FORUM, not boxing RING.
    The knowledge about boxing in general is more important than real abilities to fight in the ring.
    Many great boxers do not follow this sport, nor even watch fights of other boxers
    ... that is the job of people who post at this forum.

    First, I've got to wonder why you're upset about this thread. Seems a silly thing to be throwing a fit over.

    You have a point, but then there are guys like Brock's father. Not a lick of boxing experience, and he guided his son to world title contention with Kenny Weldon tapes. In short, boxing experience is very important when analyzing boxers, but there are guys with limited boxing experience who still know their stuff. Many of them prove it by correctly predicting fights.

    Then there's the obvious--you have no way of knowing how good Achilles, Manassa, Amsterdam, and others are because you've never met them. For all you know, they are excellent amateurs or professional fighters. We have no way of knowing how good you are either, unless you are willing to post your record and best performances. We can only go by what people post on the forum--and these guys post good material.

    So by all means, I encourage you to post analysis and fight predictions. If you're actually more experienced than any of the posters you're criticizing, everyone will look at your analysis and realize how knowledgeable you are. You have nothing to lose.

    Why do you assume you know anything about anyone here? I am not going to bother analyzing why you feel the need to pop in and say something negative every chance you get.

    Your act only works on an audience.

    thank you decebal and lampley.
    just read through the threads and it seems like a good idea.

    sort of like an international rankings which should lead to a bit more balance and regognition for both world boxers and lighter weight boxers outside the american mainstream which the ring magazine ranking system tends to favour.


    i accept and will gladly take part.
