Opinions from mates who know nothing about boxing

That was so cringey, felt embarrassed for him. He even gave Amirs name a build up.

 

The one I always remember was when I was at school when Tyson was in his pomp.During a group discussion,I brought up the subject of his defence,only to be told by the most popular guy and de facto leader;"Defence? He's a boxer not a centre half ya ****in nutter!" to much laughter from the sycophantic group.
I had a similar experience not long after when discussing Watson's wonderful performance against Benn.I tried to mention the peek-a-boo tactics to some strange looks from some of the same people.

Still not had an apology.

 

who wrote that ****ing ****? the most ridiculous thing ive read in a while

 

You do wonder where they get this **** from.

 

hahah that is class

 

He had been a big star before the Hatton but he became a mega cross over star at the time of the De La Hoya fight. The Hatton fight made him more popular on this side of the Atlantic.

 

I hadn't ever seen the clip, I'd only heard about it. Hilarious! You can tell he'd gone off the script because his attempt to recover was clearly being shouted down his ear.

 

saw something on hatton mayweather there and reminded me at work at some dude says why are you so confident in mayweather as hatton has the better record, hatton had 4 more wins than mayweather at the time

 

When people state that nobody could be Mike Tyson in his prime

I asked one person to recall me more than 10 of his fights, and describe them.

"And they could not do it"......

 

Peoples opinions on Floyd Mayweather now annoy me.

 

tbf h2h prime iron mike is a beast, but ye most people have probably never watched more than 1 or 2 of his fights all the way through

 

totally agree :deal he is a very good fighter, but has there ever been a more overrated fighter?

 

In fairness you would get the same response when asking that to 99% of people. Even if he had to describe 10 Ali fights.

 

Yes because they don't know nothing about boxing.

Why say something, if you cannot even recall any specific fights..?

 

A lot of ****wits get caught up in the social phenomenon and get giddy and what desperately to get involved despite being in way over their heads. Any talking heads 'celebrity' look back at the past programs are particularly cringe worthy for these type of comments. When he have some arse 'ole out of My Family or something talk about The Thriller In Manila.
