Why do People Called Boxers like PBF a Runner..?

[JACK D. RIPPER]

If avoiding punishment were the stuff of "track stars"

why do you find equipment in every boxing gym that improves head
movement?

Why do fighters wear ankle weights?

jump rope?

And simulate ducking punches when doing pad workouts?

If I threw something at your head, hopefully you would have the wherewithal to move out of the way. ...

Or

Would you Stand there get hit, and then throw something Back....?


Generally Speaking....
I think fighters only resort to fighting flat-footed because they have no choice. and boxers like Mayweather has plenty of options, so he doesnt stand flat footed...., instead he boxes on his toes, just like SRL, SRR, or ali..


So the question really is....?

Should he take punishment to give punishment...?
(Like fighters such Margarito)

Are Should he give Punishment and avoid Punishment..?
(as he is doing now....)

He's a runner. Watch his fights. SRR and SRL fought. Floyd is a ***** and potshots and avoids confrontation.
He's a *****. Just like most of his fans that enjoy watching other ******* try to fool the rest of the world into thinking they're tough.

lol..right


If all floyd does is potshot..who fault is that for letting him potshot you for 12 rounds?

how can you avoid confrontation with 24+ Ko's on your record?
You can make an argument that Paulie Magg.... Avoids confrontation because he only has what 5 ko's on his record...

But Floyd on the on the other hand has more than half of his fights ending in Knockout...explain how can that be possible if he avoids confrontation...



LOL....you make no logical sense

[MANGLER]

Hmm. Horus and Flawless bumpin a bunch of old pro Mr boat buyer-anti Mexican threads tonite huh? Bizarre. Wow, just wow.

Mayweather/Mosley/Bradley/Williams/Berto/Campbell

I know deep down inside Pacman is scared of these guys

Mayweather was retired and came out to announce that he is going to fight JMM so shut up with that one. Williams is not fighting at 147 and you know it, when he comes back down, let me know. Berto will get mopped with his hug and hit technique, see Hatton. Bradley is already going up agaisnt Campbell.
That leaves Cotto and Mosley. Manny can not face everyone and they will have to wait. What is wrong with Cotto? Floyd was afraid of him. Cotto faced Mosley and Margarito, two fighters Floyd is also afraid of. So stop with this nonsense.

Who the hell is flawless? What is his alt?

[Ido]

My question would be if you like boxers who stand there and get hit without moving do you care about your fighter ?


typical Mexican Warriors: Make name for thereselves by taking Punishment to give Punishment.... and they Feel Honor in that way of boxing...

So when they fight a fighter who dont take Punishment to give Punishment...
Instead Avoid Punishment to give Punishment
This explains the reason why they tend to called them runners....

and I think it coralates down to their fans, because than their fans called them runners...


So the question is in other not to be a runner do you have to take Punishment to give Punishment....?

But is that smart...?

Looking at the history of past fighters...., such as Ali, and Hearns, and thousands of other fighters....


taking Punishment to give Punishment is probably the dumbist thing you could do as a fighter..

Am i wrong to have that belief..?

This is incredibly wrong. A typical Mexican does not pride himself for taking punishment, to give it. Their pride over their “Will” to continue. The “Heart”, to carry on match.

Maybe because he circles the ring 3 times before throwing a punch. I owuldnt call him a runner more like a marathon man
