I really do not understand why some posters call fighting off the backfoot running

people consider jmm running from pacquiao is BS.. he boxed, yes i believe he won, but to the judges it wasnt seem to be enough and anybody can still make a case for packy.. i never consider floyd running from a fight. cotto ran from pacquiao in the late rounds.. i dont know what the hell bradley was doing against pac.. he was playing it safe but aint even effective.sad. i agree...............

Actually, boxing was about fighting it out to see who the toughest guy was. It was not about running around the ring, it was standing toe to toe until someone got knocked out. So i dont get that argument about boxing being to not get hit. These days it is though . This aint the 1800's son...

Fighting off the back foot ISNT running...fighting off a back pedal is.

Theyre still idiots who dont what boxing is?

Some of these cats think boxing is a damn bar fight where whoever hits the hardest wins...lol

because Abril ran!!!! lol :love: Naw he just boxed Rios's ears off

Yo Puga where is the footage of Floyd running from Baldo??

Watch the second KD of Khan vs Garcia.... that's running. Actually, watch him against Peterson

Rios still lost :kiss: because Abril ran!!!! lol :love:

They say using the ring all while throwing educated punches and avoiding punches is running??i thought it was called boxing??? according to some you didn't come to fight unless you stand there and throw alot of punches?? now i may be old fashion but i thought it was hit and don't get hit.. you wanna see running???this is running Amir Khan with dreds?

People say Bradley was running from Pacquiao and claim the fight was boring Hah! Well honestly the the fight was boring,but Bradley did what he had to do

People say Bradley was running from Pacquiao and claim the fight was boring Hah! LOL....People said Marquez was running when he was timing Pacquiao and stickin him coming in all night long. These so called "boxing" fans don't like "boxing". This never made sense to me.

he did'nt..but he was closing the gap until floyd decided to "get on his bike" On his bike??post that footage please sir

People say Bradley was running from Pacquiao and claim the fight was boring Hah!

lol WHEN IN THE HELL DID BALDO GET TO HIM??WHEN? he did'nt..but he was closing the gap until floyd decided to "get on his bike"

I wonder how many people box or actually know the sport..you have legs for a reason and learn footwork for a reason..movement makes your opponent think and opens up counter opportunities..you can set traps and make them walk into punches they dont see and tire them out while frustrating them...it is the sweet science...who in the hell wants to take punches???Martinez set Williams up perfectly walking backwards then BOOOOOM williams was sleep......

who cares if it was, he's still is a defensive fighter right now like then..and you are entitled to your opinion ..he boxed him early, then ran when carlos was getting to him.... lol WHEN IN THE HELL DID BALDO GET TO HIM??WHEN?

larry you don't have to argue this any more since Floyd has lost his legs. No he hasn't, he's obviously not as light on his feet as he was back in the late 90s-mid 00s but a fighter who has lost his legs does not show good movement in the Championship rounds. It is just a case of who he has been matched up against. Against Mosley it was necessary to walk him down ensuring that he didn't get an opportunity to fight back. Against Ortiz well that ended too quickly to draw any comparisons. Against Cotto he was against an opponent who could successfully cut the ring off moving around would have expended too much energy.
