Expert opinions on Marciano VS Liston

Very much so mate. Good to see you posting a bit too. Where is Manassa nowadays? Does he frequent any forums?

 

Shame. Tho i'd never tell him back in the day he was as good as it gets.

 

But joe Frazier never used the term “style advantage” did he? He talked about styles. He talked about ways to overcome all styles (strategy) just as everyone else does. But nobody uses the word “advantage” after the word “style”.

I accept there are strengths within each style. I accept styles exist. I except styles are important just as everyone else does. There are limitations to each style. But it is strategy or tactics that makes the fighter successful.

In fact I have a hunch There are less uses of the term “style advantage” than the term “limbo style” being used to describe the ingle boxers.

 

thank you. Thank the sweet lord you finally get that. He did not say Stlyle advantage. Nobody but you uses the term “style advantage”. It’s misleading because it indicates an actual insurmountable advantage between one style other the other. When in truth we all accept the right strategy will allow any style of fighter to beat any style of fighter with his own style. Even yourself.

which is what I am talking about. And what I and everybody recognises in boxing. The specific strengths of one style intersecting with the weakness of the other. It’s only advantageous if the strategy rather than the style itself allows it.

 

OMG.......

 

Well I can see we are both agreeing with the same things I said all along it is the wording I dispute rather than much of the details. Individual styles can have advantages over other individual styles. All other styles.

 

I thought he had some insight into reading fights especially for one so young,but he was an arrogant little f*cker!
If he re-joined our throng ,I think it could be a positive.

 

This.
