boxing/basketball comparisons!!

[butterfly1964]

theres no way you can compare basketball players with fighters, two totally different sports, two totally different kind of athletes. Fighters rely on training and staying in shape working hard, basketball players run up and down a court and bounce a ball up and down off a wood floor that they spend more time on than the ball. Basketball has ****** since after the Original Dream Team. I mean come on those were players, Jordan Bird Stockton Barkley and so on. Now you have pansys playing the sport and I mean all of them. I mean basketball is basically the thugs sport, how many true atletes are there in the game now? Not many at all you got Shaq who is part of a team and doesnt even travel with them because why? Because he is a great center? No it's because he is a pansy ass lazy mother ****er who is a waste of space and should be banned from the sport because of this. Basketball a bunch of old time thugs that couldnt do anything else with their lives but spend time by themselves and with a basketball.

Basketball is a better sport than boxing, cause you need far more skill to play basketball. And what do you mean by true athletes? They all are athletes, very skilled athletes. I don't know what you have against b-ball.

Boxers are the most skilled and in shape athletes in the world, not only physically, but mentally, knowing they are also going to get beat on. Basketball is a glamour sport. There was nothing tough about Kobe getting owned by Chris Childs...they don't call basketball the 'sweet science'...that term is reserved for only one sport in the world...BOXING!!! Have a nice day.

You have to be drafted to the NBA, while anybody could become a boxer. Now tell me who's more skilled.

I already did...boxers are. Once again there is a flaw in your arguement. Yes, anyone can be a boxer, but once a player is drafted, he's autumatically in the spotligt. A boxers goes through fight after brutal fight to make the big time, most likely taking longer that the 3 to 4 years of college a basketball played goes through.

Leme ask you a question, take two of your favorites. Kobe and Ali...who is in better shape in their prime? Ali in fighting shape or Kobe in basketball shape? Roy Jones Jr. plays basketball for fun in a semi-pro league...he has to stop everything else in his life to get in fight shape

Ali or kobe? I'll call it a draw. I've seen what kobe does as his workout routine and it ain't easy.

And if you think that the semi-pros are as intense and rigerous as the pros then you are a raving lunatic.

YOUR TOTALLY OUT OF YOUR DAMN MIND, SAYING BASKETBALL PLAYERS CAN COMPARE TO BOXERS ESPECIALLY IN TRAINING AND BEING IN SHAPE. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A BASKETBALL PLAYER LOOK AS IN SHAPE AS ROY JONES OR MANNY PACQUIO? THE ANSWER IS NO, KOBES WORKOUT MAY BE TOUGH BUT NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE HOUR OF HARDCORE TRAINING THEY PUT IN DAY IN AND DAY OUT MONTHS A TIME FOR 1 FIGHT WHERE B-BALL PLAYERS WILL GO PRACTICE FOR A FEW HOURS ONCE EVERY FEW DAYS TO PLAY 3 GAMES IN A ROW. HUG DIFFERENCE MY FRIEND HUGE DIFFERENCE. FURTHERMORE BOXERS DONT FALL ON THE GROUND AND ACT HURT WHEN THEY ARE NOT LIKE 95% OF BASKETBALL PLAYERS DO WHEN THEY ARE TRYING TO GET A FOUL CALLED THEN 2 MINUTES LATER THEY ARE UP AND ALRIGHT. BOXERS ARE IN 10 X BETTER SHAPE THAN ANY BASKETBALL PLAYER ON EARTH I DONT CARE WHO THE PLAYER.
