    Absolutely, once you've been a seen a few live fights and seen a couple of good ones, it hasn't got to be top level or a huge event but just a competitive and real fight you understand why some people get upset/offended when fighters get called "cowards" or "bums".

    It really does take a special kind of person to be a fighter.

    Marquez putting Pacquiao to sleep was epic and sweet revenge!

    i would hope you worried a bit. anyone with a smidge of a conscience would. you could also land in prison for between a couple years and life.

    Yeah absolutely. The way I see it is, it's either me getting knocked out or them.

    Long before I boxed, I remember getting bad beatings out on the streets. Once I took up boxing, the beatings on the streets stopped but the ones in the ring started lol. Boxing not only toughened me but it taught me a lot about myself that Im now proud of. Discipline wasn't really one of them I'm ashamed to say but I was never in the wrong when I did what I had to.

    Adonis Stevenson when he was on the rise and move up from 168 to 175 to KO Chad Dawson for WBC title, the rest is not history.

    100% different animal. I studied Kenpo and trained at a boxing gym a bit from ages 19-25. I've sparred on many an occasion. But the guys with actual pro potential or who did compete at some level were a clearly different set than us normal guys.

    To study a martial art for that length of time, you also must have that streak running through you.

    And you must have seen some crazy stuff in the gym over that many years LOL

    100% agree, you lot are a different bread.

    It was off and on. I had college going and a raging thirst for booze. But I'd get focused for a few months here and there and get back in the gym. I'm a whopping Orange belt (3 up from white), nothing major.

    In my time watching the sport? It has to be Marquez/Pacquiao.

    Doesn't hurt that I had a bet on Marquez by stoppage at +600, haha.
