What are the most overused boxing terms/phrases?

Exposed is the worst one for me. Even if a fighter clearly won a fight where he was heavy favourite but lost a round so that must mean he got exposed. I came here to write this one. My favorite one ever was when Wade got a combo off on GGG and people said his defense was exposed. He didn't even win the round lol.

I'll throw a new one in. Ring Generalship. It seems that most of the time when people say that, their just trying to sound smart or they can't explain why they think a fighter won. Example: Random Guy: "I think he won that round, he showed great ring generalship". Me: He was just moving to his left and barely engaged... Random Guy: Yeah, but he moved around the WHOLE ring

But even then...what casual makes an account on a boxing website just to shoot the sh*t about random sh*t? Probably his only outlet online.

i thought you were talking about phrases that the boxers use, "at the end of the day" and it's not even close. thank you floyd, you spawned a generation of retards

'Adjustments' Used by people who can never actually explain you what the adjustments were. :lol1::lol1: so true...good one.

Excuses...

"Sweet science!" "Science of boxing is about taking no punishment" "It's called inside fighting" when the guy literally runs onto ppl to clinch them or run his azz away. "A young prospect" when guy is nothing but another fighter but has gotten a win over some C level famous fighter. "Just a power puncher" towards Mike Tyson, Golovkin or Kovalev, total disrespect, a total blasphemy. "Defensive fighter" ppl call everyone who has decent defensive skills like that, there is a diff. btw having a good equilibrium of defense n offense like Floyd and being a Sweet Pea. "Ali, yea float like a butterfly sting like a bee, dancing." Morons try to sum up Ali with only his dancing and motto as if he wasn't an excellent technician. "Euro robot" Once again, morons fall for this. They think esp. Caucasians are robots with no technique. Kovalev, Golovin, Loma, Pirog and others are also robots for them. Little they did know when the Soviets adopted boxing they developed their style by approaching as technicians. "Technician" everyone running away is a technician and aggressive fighters or esp Mexicans can't be technicians for them.

getting kocked down = glass chin ducked is way over used coward is as well exposed because u lost to or had a hard close fight with another professional fighter after u dominated everyone else. use the ring, footwork, and angles, and actually moving out of the way of an incoming glove = runner

Unless they mostly focus on the Lounge. But even then...what casual makes an account on a boxing website just to shoot the sh*t about random sh*t?

Add "duck" to that list and you made the best list in Nsb history which hopefully opens eyes. Stop all the stupid sh+t

The ufc is taking over....

Mexican Warrior...all these guys that step into the ring are warriors regardless of where they're from.

One Punch said mine. There are a sh^tton doe. "He's been exposed." - a dummy forum poster favorite "He shook his head cuz he was hurt." - a hilariously overused phrase used when a big punch is landed "Champion" - a virtually meaningless term today for every belt holder when only 1 guy in a division should be getting called this I agree with champion. They should be referred to as titlist. I hate to hear Wilder referred to as champion. He has never even fought Wlad.

Exposed is the worst one for me. Even if a fighter clearly won a fight where he was heavy favourite but lost a round so that must mean he got exposed.

Not boxing related, but the term racist gets thrown around a little much around here.

You know what, though...I will say this: even though we do have some real dumb ass motherf**kers up in here...one thing I won't ever call anybody in here is a casual. Because there's no way in hell a true casual will EVER take the time & effort to make an account on a boxing message board...let alone create one and spend time on here posting. Unless they mostly focus on the Lounge.
