Why do HW's moving their feet always do it as middleweights?

[Lord Pyjamas]

Is it an American thing?
Why can't they just move like light heavy weights instead?
Like the rest of us.

 

[GrantB13]

Please explain.

 

[Lord Pyjamas]

American broadcasts goes from middleweight and down from there when describing HW speed.
What is up with that shit? We do have eyes!

So you’re talking about UFC commentary? With Rogan, and DC, and shit?

Hyperbole. Is normal.
If Rogan & Anik said "Look at this HW! He moves like a welterweight", it would be too far. People would say, "No! WW's are manlets!".

 

[ChickenBrother]

I don't know but Yushin Okami is a huge middleweight. If you saw him in street clothes you'd swear he was a heavyweight.

If someone asked me this, I would throw my drink in their face.

Interesting! Please explain why!
And are you sure you really would do that?
No matter the format I come in it is probably not what you picture.
But I can assure you that you would get a fight!

[Lord Pyjamas]

Hyperbole is actually not normal in Europe!
We use the metric system for things.
Hyperbole is a very American thing you just got used to.
But most people seem to like it!
I am ok with that. Just sounds extra dumb when it comes to HW.
I just came here to get friends.

They should say they move like BW

[HolmeZy55]

This is seriously what you're pondering?

Get some help.

 

[Lord Pyjamas]

TS, please cease and desist from making threads. Thanks in advance for your compliance.

You do understand that I bring a lot of joy to people while you bring nothing?

 

[Lord Pyjamas]

One of my best threads ever!
Or at least that is what Donald Trump would say.
Guess what? I don't give a shit.

The guy who finished his career at welterweight?

Okami didnt finish his career yet.
Anyways he competed at WW almost half of his career, in the mid '00s and in the '10s.
He was never big for 185 and actually a small MW by today standards
