I thought i read a thread here months ago where ppl were calling for a stop to the term "Young Lion"
I don't know why i hate that expression so much. maybe it stems from hearing Pascal being referred to a young lion over and over during the build up to the hopkins fight and he ended being a effin ***** cat.
yeah, he beat a hypejob in the scorecards and he suddenly becomes a young lion. berto/ortiz was not what you call an ortiz-dominated fight. it was a very close match. the judges could have given the fight to berto with good justification. if berto tried to outscore ortiz in the final round by a few points the decision could have been berto's.
:bigeyes:
it's actually "hungry young lion". I hate that saying too. You can be the hungriest young fighter in the world, when you come up against the best, will without the skills doesn't do much for you
This is exactly it
Plus young lions lack experience
Absolutely not. We should scream it to high heaven until that's all we hear concerning great fighters. I much rather hear young lion than old, shot fighter, true story.
