Hit and not get hit. There's a reason why 'hit' goes before 'not get hit'

That means that more emphasis should be placed on hitting your opponent. There's a reason why shots are scored and blocks are not. In boxing as well as b-ball.

Agree?

Yes- and the best fighters in the world know how to mix these two things together so that the judges are giving them rounds.

I was sad when I finally saw his face. I would have rather imagined that cartoony voice belonging to some ridiculous animated charachter.

No no no, that is only after the unified rules of the association of BOXING commisions!

And you CANNOT be saved by the bell, in any round, INCLUDING, the 12th and final round, JIM!

Thank you Harold.

All right, after three rounds how do you see the fight, Harold?

Its funny when i here these "sweet science aficianados" talk about whats pure boxing and whats not. According to them, "real" boxing consists of staying out of danger while throwing the bare minimum amount of shots possible in order to win. They would call that a "boxing clinic"

Word. Those posters rarely understand boxing, they think Malignaggi is more "skilled" than Cotto.

Also, why do some people speak as if a missed punch is a negative? When you throw punches in combinations, it's never the goal to land every punch, some set others up.

I have more fun watching a guy make someone miss like 20 punches in a row like Tyson used to do then watch Tyson land 20 monster shots.

I guess the thing is that anyone ANYONE can hit hard but only a small few can make defence look like fine art.
