Real men don't watch LITTLE MEN fight

[Dynamite Kid]

The bigger the fighters are, the more the fights tend to suck. HW has completely lost it's shine, and CW almost never had any. The smaller guys always bring the heat.

Here's an interesting picture.

DLH is 35, Calderon is 33, Wladimir is 32.

That is classic.

Again, you don't disagree with me, you just have a different limit. To me, lightweight is extremely small, but I'll sit through it. Anything above that is golden

lol if you have been watching boxing and started at 60 lb weight class you know a lightweight weighs 150-180 pounds...they cut like crazy to make 135 or 130.

pacman walks around 155-160

joan guzman walks around 185 cuts down to 130-135.

nate campbell walks around 165...

I have said this before that Mexican warrior mentality doesn’t work well in the heavyweight division (no offense). With Arreloa saying he likes getting him in the face isn’t a good sign.
The thing about the HW division is that one lucky punch and the fight can be over.

Yea I remember when he said that and thinking that damn that is a bad sign for his career.

There is only 1 heavyweight fight were I saw a ton of hard punches thrown and landed; Ibaebuchi-Tua but when I saw that fight I knew it was an exception and not the rule. The human body is only capable of withstanding so much and 220+ pound that are trained to hurt people can do a massive ammount of damage in short order.

No HW has ever won with his chin.

See Randall "Tex" Cobb vs. Earnie Shavers and Lamon Brewster vs. Wladimir Klitschko I.

This is all true. The weight limits we have though are from the 19th century. They should all be raised by about 15 pounds. 1

That certainly is not the case with many high caliber fights involving smaller men. Many great one punch or quick knockouts have occured in the past few months involving fighters participating lower than the Welterweight limit.

Juan Manuel Lopez
Yuri Gamboa
Jon Thaxton
Joel Casamayor
Juan Manuel Marquez
Breidis Prescott
Juan Urango

All have scored spectacular KO's and didn't need to land a trillion punches to do it.

If you posted in my thread I call it a success

[Flawless 2]

Let’s be honest. There are 2 fights at school.

One is between two guys 5’5 weigh around 115 more punches but longer brutal and quick
Vs
One is between two guys 6’2 and weigh round 225 short fast brutal and excitement watch two big ****s going out it


I would take the second option.

[OnePunch]

See, everyone has a limit. Mine is welterweight, though I do watch down to lightweight if there's nothing better on.


But the higher the weight, the better the fight. A HW fight keeps me on the edge of my seat. IT can turn at any second. There's no need to throw a thousand punches when you're looking to get one good one in.

Yeah, Wlad vs. Thompson was a real barn burner. Unlike that snooze fest in Monshipour-Sith. I remember that all 3 Ruiz-Holyfield fights were so compelling that I barely could even leave to go to the bathroom, while in comparison the 3 Vazquez-Marquez fights, or the 3 Gatti-Ward fights had our group talking about 18th century literature during most of the fights.

Yes, what I just wrote was indeed sarcasm. I might agree with your post had you not said that welterweight was the cut off. Maybe you have a point if you would have said 115. But the vast majority of the best fights I have ever seen have come below 147. And I'd have to go all the way back to Tua-Ibeabuchi or Etienne-Clay Bey to find a heavyweight fight that really had me "at the edge of my seat".
