Real men don't watch LITTLE MEN fight

OK Kaykay, let me level with you. Go through Ring Magazine's picks of Fight of the Year and show me where heavyweights in recent years have been unfairly denied the distinction.

Real men don't watch any boxing matches below welterweight. We won't watch midgets fight, because they're too small to count as real athletes.

Usually I agree with you, but not this time.

Really Kayjay, you should see Fernando Monteil fight, or see the slickest southpaw in boxing, Cristian Mijares - those guys are a joy to watch.

One great thing about boxing, is anybody can fight regardless of size. Basketball, hockey, and football tend to exclude smaller men.

Ring favors midgets in the mythical "pound for pound" list.

But that doesn't matter, anyone who uses the expression "pound for pound" without his tongue in his cheek is a moron.

And there's no more "skillz" there than in the higher weights. What you little boys mistake for skill is just off-balance arm punching.

What Pacquiao and Marquez do is flat-out gay, and they're the good ones. Bigger men need to be cautious because their opponents can knock them out with one punch. Slapping midgets LOOK more active because the punches don't do any damage. Those same strategies would get a cruiserweight or heavyweight killed every time. Why? Because they're facing genetically normal, grown men.

A man who weighs less than 135 pounds is not genetically normal, let alone potentially athletic.

wow, i guess this guy is new to the game.

haha about time this topic got posted again. I remember making a similar one a year back under the heading "I know why boxing is declining and here's why", looks like this one got a bit more of a heated debate going though.

Kayjay, you've taken the words out of my mouth, anything below middleweight for me isn't worth watching unless it's a DLH or pacquiao fight. There's just no point. There's a reason why most people are turning to MMA and it's because no one wants to watch "children" fight when they can just put a pair of pillow gloves on their lil cousins/bros and watch em go at it, same thing you know. Fighters are supposed to be the epitome of badassness in the general publics view. The stereotypical view is that they're big,mean n lean mother****ers, who can rip your heart out. Which is why it's hard to take a 130+ lb boxer seriously, no matter how much heart/skill they have. MMA fighters and heavyweight boxers, on the other hand fit this stereotypical mold. The only reason the lower weight divisions shone in the past were because of guys like hagler/duran who didn't weigh much, but still brought a intimidating presence a la prime tyson, to the ring.



Not saying I'm an MMA fan, I still like boxing, but come on people be honest...if you came across 5'5 naseem hamed in real life, would you really be intimidated??? I doubt any guy over 200 lbs would.

I believe the world average weight is 155 pounds, so no, guys who are 135 are no where near abnormal.
Dudes that are 200 to 200+ are just really big. Do some research.
Not saying this out of small man syndrome either.
