Check out lakers center Andrew Bynum on twitter, he has a picture of Roach teaching him how to box, and is calling boxing his new career since the nba is in a lockout. http://twitter.com/#!/andrewbynum [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoRS_gZTvNg[/ame] What do ya think?
I think its far to late in his life to become a decent boxer, he is injury prone enough in the NBA, guy would be fighting once a year.
I did not think so but until I saw he was Black and heard the rap music, now I am convinced he would beat the Klitschko's. In all seriousness; Max Kellerman said that if that NBA goof started boxing young he would have been better than the klitschko's. It never ends.
Andrew Bynum is not a fighter. He dont have the heart. I watch his B game and hes not dominating that middle like a true G. Once he starts feeling the real power of them heavyweights digging in that body and bouncing hooks and right hands off his mug, Hes gonna take them gloves off and throw them as far as he can. Plus Max Kellerman is turning into a talk show host. Jerry Springer or somebody like that.
Don't believe the hype, he's not switching careers, he's doing it to keep in shape.

Out of the Laker's Bigs last post season, Bynum was the ONLY one stepping up. Barea did smoke him but that's the point guard's fault in the first place. And if he had no heart, he wouldn't be trying to keep in shape by boxing this offseason. The kid is motivated. He loves LA and knows his job is on the line with the Dwight Howard talks so he's stepping up, just like how he did in the post season. 2011 Playoff Stats http://www.nba.com/lakers/stats/ 2010 Playoff Stats http://www.lakersuniverse.com/seasons/2009_2010_playoff_stats.htm
As if size is a deciding factor...it's a combination of size, strength, speed, intelligence and boxing skills that makes Klitschkos great. Look at Julius Long, the guy is 7'1 and he is a bum.
hahah. Bynum is soft as hell. NBA players are the worst fighters of all major US sports. When you see a candy ass like Carmelo Anthony or Alonzo Mourning trying to fight, you realize Americans are grasping for straws.
