Boxing Confirmed DEAD

What weight are you bro?

Now I’m about 85kg but I haven’t sparred in years, or fought in even longer. Also currently nursing a ruptured Achilles’ tendon so couldn’t punch my way out of a wet paper bag :(

I fought in the amateurs as a kid then as an adult as light as 60kg at lightweight up to 75kg at middleweight. Then did a bit of Muay Thai and grappling but with the injury everything is on hold.

Most of the guys I saw regularly dropping folk at sparring would probably have been around the welterweight (69kg) weight class at least, and tbf it would normally be when the sparring partner was outmatched.
 
I get that, just from my experience it wasn’t even a particularly rare thing. We would always spar in 16oz gloves and knockdowns at least were a regular occurrence.
You might be heavier than me is why i ask your weight....or you just simply hit harder

We actually aren't far apart in weight.

So you just hit like a bastard it sounds like haha
 
Butterbean hit comically hard. It was actually kind of funny.


Granted he was a career 4 to 6 rd fighter but you cannot deny that bulldozer of a right hand
Yeah his power and also his chin was EPIC, when he was the IBA HW champ and like 60-1 or something and in his prime he was a killer.. for some reason people think he was like a freakshow because he was 400 Ibs and obese and went on WWE and other shows, but in real he was an elite trained boxer.. and never ever gassed in well over 100 pro boxing fights, not even once. Was an expert in pacing himself too which is also a huge skill

Boxing was fun back then, used to watch a lot more than now. I was sad when Andre Ward retired.. he was one of my favorites and I felt like he was too young to retire.. could do a lot more.

I think some of it has to do with the ethos of the gym you train at more than the boxer. For instance, I spent the latter part of my time competing at a gym in Glasgow that was near a local prison. We would have a conveyer belt of ex-prisoners come to the gym on a regular basis.

They were no doubt ‘tough’ in a street cred kinda way, and some probably dangerous as fuck, but they would wrongly assume that they could hang with a good amateur because of that. They would normally posture a bit, spam a few sloppy punches, and then get countered hard.
 
It's obviously someone who posted under different account, probably got banned and came back with a vengeance.

Rinse and repeat.

Yep, exactly. But the last I knew I had no beef going with anyone. But he has been trying to shame me about supposedly being "boastful" about something. So he 's obviously just jealous. I'll get to the bottom of it.
Peace, bro.
 
What in the bloody hell are you going on about? I was never a moderator nor do I wish to become one. But I do believe you've just outed yourself as a disgruntled former member who got banned & has come back under a new account. How pathetic. <45>
The only mystery is what's your beef with me. I haven't gotten anyone banned lately. So, what's your deal "Woodoo" man? What's your issue? Are you going to man up & tell me like a real "ex-military" man would or are you going to be a bitch about it & attempt to annoy me to death with your nonsense?
Maby later. Who's your fanboy @Yacob?
 
Conor robbed boxing of 100mill and went ten rounds with their best ever with just a few months of training . lol

He slick.
Conor didnt rob boxing. Conor and Mayweather robbed casual fans 700 million. The only reason Conor went 10 rounds is because Floyd carried him. Floyd didn't even train. If Floyd went out there and knocked Conor out in the first round it would not have been entertaining for the fans. Now fans think Conor can box and it sets up an even bigger payday for Floyd
 
Yep, apparently this little newbie troll has a bug up his ass about me for some reason & has taken it upon himself to try to intimidate me or chastise me or some such thing. But all he's been thus far is become a little pain in my ass. LOL.

Pro boxers are pussies that use pillows and I would fuck them up

12 you could easily get chinned

14 and 16.....meh you'll be alright unless it's a real good accurate puncher....generally those heavy big gloves take most of the steam off
You'll be alright, but it still hurts if you get one clean on the nose from a good puncher.
 

One of the interesting aspects of mixed martial arts is negative. Few fighters master every facet of the game, and so even in high level matches we see specialists poorly performing techniques outside of their specialty. I think this makes MMA unlike other sports. You can see an MMA champ throw a bad jab, or go for a clumsy takedown, whereas it's rare to see a Super Bowl tier NFL team consistently blow coverages or a top NBA team consistently struggle at the free throw line.

With all that said, this really might be the worst punch I've ever seen in actual competition. I jsut can't stop watching the gif, because it's hard to believe. There's got to be something from the early years or from Cindy Dandois' highlight reel that is worse, but I can't readily think of it.

Nose being sore is the first sign you're doing it right when you first start

"Maybe later", huh? Well, fuck it, I don't have until later. I'm done playing games, "Woodoo" man.
So, take this opportunity to say your piece now or piss off. I can already tell that this account of yours isn't going to last long. Judging by your actions you'll be double yellowed soon & then you'll be gone again. It's obviously a pattern with you, huh?
So, spill it Mister "ex-military" or I'll see you down the road in your next incarnation.
 
Oh shit he's ex military?

We better not fuck with this guy
