There's nothing wrong with taking Losses. I took a loss today in the gym.

Mayweather never took risky hard fights when it mattered the most

 

This.

 

This thread is like herpes, but nowhere as fun.

 

Just focus on what YOU can control. Sometimes winning, "taking a loss," and getting dropped/KO'd is out of your control. Nothing wrong with that as long as you get back up, own what happened, and still say "f@ck you" and know in your head you are always gonna be the champ. Good for you bro that you came on here and owned it, a lot of guys here wouldnt. Ive been dropped in sparring too.

 

Not a loss Big Willie you just overcame some adversity and was man enough to share
I’ve been dazed and concussed the crazy part is having to hear about it because when you get got you don’t even know WTF went down

 

Morales would have gotten stopped by Rahim if Rahim wasn't forced to wear the pillow like Winning Gloves, like all of Morales' opponent are made to wear.

 

Head gear is to stop headclashes and cuts

 

Great respect for getting in a ring. Not everyone has the balls to do it so fair play. I’d love to try out boxing but only sparring as its something that interests me a lot.

 

I lost in the AMS. Also won. It's life. Going undefeated is only a true feat when you're going undefeated against monsters. I'd rather see and respect a fighter taking hard fights and losing than taking the easy route and remaining undefeated. I think everyone thinks that way tho, but many fighters with managers and promotors in their ear are still convincing themselves that cherry picking and holding onto their 0 is the route to riches and glory.

Brook lost to spence and GGG, but I've got far more respect for him taking those fights than some unnamed guys in the game who are still undefeated.

 

I’ve lost my favorite pen once, it goes to show you cant always not lose it.

 

This is a ****ing great post, i had tears in my eyes reading it.

Well done Willie!

 

I remember being blasted around the ring so badly i was convinced the guy i was fighting had super speed powers. Why superpowers? Because i dont recall him throwing

What i didnt know was i was blacking out on my feet each time he hit me and thus STUNNING me. The guy hit me 8 times hard in a row. Bell went and i went to my corner and had NO recollection of being hit even once. To this day i have no memory of being beat up, thus in my mind im essentially undefeated.

 

Your vision and radar will improve with every spar. Every minute in the ring improves you. Everyday lay a brick you'll have a house in due time.
