Badou Jack exemplified the TMT strategy tonight. He was able to withstand the initial onslaught of Anthony with his skill and stamina. When Anthony's energy level thinned down to a manageable level, he turned it on and his skills took him to victory. Hard work, dedication and skills pay the bills. Now, take that strategy and add a brilliant boxing IQ and speed and you got Mayweather.
Come on Mr. CST80, you can do better than that. I was looking for one of your long and senseless breakdowns to the contrary.
It doesn't call for one. You know you'd be hopping mad if some Swedish Gambian came over here and beat one the of the beloved Dirrell Bros. and took his belt if he had nothing to do with TMT. You'd be crying robbery for the next 6 months or next 6 years later like with Froch-Dirrell.
Nope winner goes into negotiations with Groves. Anthony before the fight said this was just a tuneup and by the way he looked I'm guessing he trained like he looked over Jack.
I have to be serious, I thought Anthony would dog him out there mid-early. Congratulations to Badou, he's first and foremost a very nice guy, and he beat Anthony soundly.
See, now that's where you're wrong. Just because you hate TMT, doesn't mean I love TMT. I respect what they are doing because they are living proof that the overcome is a greater general than the defeat. I am a student of the sweet science and the discipline I like the most is the technician. I prefer the art of war rather than the brutality of war. Mayweather is a true artist and a master technician. However, I call it the way I see it and I don't pick favorites in that. If I think a fighter lost, that's what I will say and I don't care who it is.
Never really rated Anthony Dirrell anyway. I expected Groves to best him handily if he was half the fighter he was in Froch 1. At least with a Dirrell bro removed from the title picture ward will no longer have any excuse not to unify although his previous reason was truly pathetic.
