these are just some recent ones but fights like these make me a fan
Apart from the fact that I appear to enjoy watching fighting, despite being a world reknowned pussy myself, I think what I like the best is the subtlety and variety of it. There are so many different boxers, so many different styles, so many different weight divisions and boxing has such a long history that there is always another fight to watch, always new things to learn. Its much more enjoyable thinking about who will win a particular fight based on their style and skills than it is about who will win a football game for example, and to make accurate picks you have to try your best to really know something about it. I think boxing is just a deeper and richer sport than most with more for the fan to watch and think about.
because Boxing is the way real men fight - hand to hand, none of this kicking, wrestling, grappling, submission business.
its how real men fight. fist to fist
I started watching boxing after I went to the Video Store to rent a Kung Fu movie.
I came across a VHS tape called Mancini Camacho.
After I watched that, I was left wanting more.
I went back and seen another VHS called THE SUPERFIGHT.
After THAT, I was hooked!
Does anyone know what the original Superfight was?
my uncle got me into boxng by one day randomly describing how when ali was in his prime, his opponents would try to hit him and they couldnt... it didnt make sense to me.. i said there in a ring? how can you not hit the person?
so i bought some Ali dvds and watched them, around the same time... I saw Roy being televised for an upcoming fight, and they were showing his highlights.. and I was like... wtf is this guys doing? holy shit did u see how fast that was?
Ever since then... ive been hooked...
