Stupidest Things You Heard About Boxing?

Marquez would be an easy fight for roidman the third time by too many people

 

I'd like to debate with you, as I've said you articulate yourself well; it's just a total shame that what you choose to articulate is utter crap.
I give praise to all fighters just for doing what they do, I have favourites just like you or anyone else, but I'm not blinded by them.

Have a technical debate with me, or Bogatozo or anyone else like that and show off what you know? You keep harping on about fanboys when your sole function is to come here and attack one specific group? Why the axe to grind? Why's it your fight? And why only this one group? There's an army of Pacquaio fans, K brothers fans, etc.

This is a discussion board, so why not discuss? (I'll clear that up for you; you make a point, someone makes a different one and you discuss your views.) Maybe leave here and start a Blog? 'Uppercuts Utter****' ?

 

I insult fanboys who have done the same to me. Read that again. WHo have done the same to me, WTF do you care what I say about them? atsch

 

Styles make fight. Floyd isn't going to stand in the middle if the ring and rip Trinidad with combos, will he? Oscar was deathly afraid of being stuck against the ropes that night, as his running in the last few rounds showed. If FMJ fought Trinidad and backed in straight lines against the ropes, he would take a of punishment. He doesn't fight in the style De la Hoya did. And Leonard would finish Floyd against the ropes. Knock him out. Hence this is a defensive liability, hence he is far from perfect.

 

What college did you attend?

 

That Void did not have feathers..............

 

Please, you always preach this victim like situation.

You show up in a thread which can relate to Mayweather in some form, and then precede to attack his supporters. You've attacked me before, as I've done to you. Why even get involved? You open yourself up to insults by doing the same to others and pretending to be some sort of self righteous clean up act

There's alot of **** here on the General without you adding to it, there's also alot of very good threads where we have good detailed discussions, come on there, give a technical, or analytical opinion and see where it gets you, surely it'd beat typing the same rubbish over and over.

 

I see Floyd being quite comfortable against the ropes against Trinidad. Why would he take punishment? A 170 Oscar de La Hoya couldnt hurt Floyd against the ropes, when Floyd had just moved up to welter. Why would a welter Trinidad hurt a full fledged welter Floyd?

Oscar comfortably outboxed Trinidad. Floyd is a better boxer then Oscar. Floyd would win an even wider decision. And not get robbed on the cards. :good

 

Once in a blue moon. How many body shots can you count that he actually threw in the mosley fight? How many of the same lead straight right hands, and leaping left hooks can you count. How many times did he actually put together more then 1 or 2 punches - against a guy he was dominating? I could ask the same question about most of his fights. Sorry but as technically good as Floyd is, he's severely lacking in these areas.

 

Floyd has more trouble with Tito than Oscar did IMO.

Oscar looked so good because of his brilliant footwork which allowed him to move side to side, the main tool in exposing Trinidad's flaws. Mayweather can't move side to side as well as Oscar could. He'd still win, but not look as dominant as Oscar did in those 8/9 rounds.

 

Where was his need for a pro-longed body attack?

I didn't see it.

 

Remind me again of all the dynamic power punchers at 147 who Floyd has fought, anywhere near the level of a Trinidad? Hatton? Marquez? 38 year old SSM? Victor Ortiz? An Oscar de la Hoya 2 fights from retirement?

Floyd's never faced a true power puncher at his current weight. That's why he is so comfortable against the ropes.

 

When is it not a good idea to go to the body? Maybe he could of put Mosleey away instead of having him hang around for 12 rounds ,with the possibility of him landing a lucky shot. If you got a guy dominated, put his ass away and stop playing it safe.

And who said anything about pro-long body attack? It would be a shocker to see Floyd even throw single left hook to the body.

 

Mayweather can coast better then any fighter on the planet without putting it in 2nd gear. See Oscar vs Floyd. Fights tied at the midway point. Floyd rips off 4 straight rounds like he nothing. Same with his fight with Mosley.

Trinidad's not good enough to beat Floyd in the middle of the ring. And not strong enough to muscle Floyd to the ropes and get any decent work done that would sway the judges to his side.


Mayweather wins rounds on precision punches. Problem with guys like Marquez and Oscar is that they trade with their opponents, and even though the get the best of the exchanges, they get hit enough that the judges can be swayed to the other fighter, especially if they arent backing up and less active.

Floyd lands first, lands flush, then gets out, doesnt allow his opponent to draw into exchanges.

I see Floyd over Trinidad wide UD. Floyd could do what Oscar did the last 2 rounds, the whole fight and still win because he's multi-dimensional and can fight goign backwards.
