Jeffries v Byrd

There are pleanty of ultra runners who are bigger blokes, including a lot of ex army types. Some of them have problems with their knees, but it usualy manifests itself later in life.

Jeffries was probably doing most of his running off road, which would have taken a lot of the sting out of it. He would have been wearing a running flat, which would have induced him to strike on the forefoot. This would have taken the pressure off his knees and thrown it more on the halves.

 

I'm sorry, but I don't think 15 rounds against Byrd would be enough to break Byrd down at the pace Jeffries fought at. And it hugely works against him the fact that he by all accounts wasn't much of a clincher. This means he couldn't impose his greater power as well as partially negating his questionable footwork.

Nope, I think Byrd takes this all the way.

 

You don´t think Jeff would be intelligent enough to figure out that he would have to change his approuch over the shorter distance when he wants to succeed?

:good:deal

 

Bad bad science, they're measuring force and not power or how fast the force is transfered from the glove to the surface, which is what causes a concussion.

Imagine for a miniute your boxing an opponent, would you choose 8oz gloves or the 40oz celebrity boxing gloves? Which do you choose? Why do you think there are less KO's in the amateurs?

 

No, but even if he was, I don't think he has the physical capabilities to do it.

 

Johnson's defense seemed to work fine at a similar distance. I'm not entirely convinced Byrd wins this actually, he's not that good, I lean towards him though due to his defense/technique
