for me boxing is the only sport with fills me with adrenaline, i feel like a kid again with santa clause coming just minutes before the fight "lets get ready to rumble" . i actually feel nervous for the fighter i want to win before the fight.

Is a man against man sport and boxers don't just step in the ring and throw punches. It's a fine sport.

The sweet science of it, definitely.Comment

It's the only true test to yourself about yourself I think, they is no coach to send someone else in for you if you don't feel up to it or having an off night, no teammate to pass the ball to for that shot to win the game.Plus there is no where to hide once you step into that ring, your there for EVERYONE to see in those lights. An old Rigeside t-shirt of mine has a head with a smily face made up of a tennis ball and baseball as eyes, football for a mouth and a soccer ball as the head and says Other Sports Ball With 'Em. Boxers Got 'EmComment

Two main reasons...love the sweet science because it's so complex and intricate. For every move there is a counter move. You have to know your opponent and stay away from his strong point and exploit his deficiencies. There is much strategy involved. It’s not just go out there swinging. Its one man VS another in a fight for survival. Two men put on the spotlight to combat one another hand to hand until one reminds.Originally posted by boxasmash View Post
Which takes me to the second reason I love boxing…it feeds my primordial urges. I watch for the sheer and utter violence of the sport because it feeds my need for violence. Controlled chaos if you will. Love the rush I get from hitting and getting hit…love the rush I get when I see a wicked KO (hence my love for Mike Tyson and fighters like him) love the rush I get when I see someone on the verge of being annihilated and makes a comeback to best the man in front of him.
Coincidently these are the same reasons why I love footbal...there is just something within me that lets loose when I watch/practice these two sports....it's the best!Last edited by extracurRICular; 02-24-2009, 03:37 PM.Comment

Nobody plays boxing. It ain't a game. It's a fight, but you see who the better man is cuz there's rules. None of your homies jumpin in when you're gettin your ass beat. No hittin in the nuts. No pickin up bottles, rocks, or any other weapons. Only punches, no other sissy ****. And if your tough enough, you can beat a guy who's got more skill. Or vice versa, you can be skillful wit no power and beat up a ripped guy wit nothin but a big punch to offer. Boxing is the ****!

I agree. I love how unpredictable it can be at times. Just man vs. man and whoever the better man is on any given night is the winner.. Sometimes I like being wrong more than I like being right as far as picking winners of fights. Like Mosley's and Pacquiao's recent wins. I thought they both would lose but they shocked everyone and proved us all wrong. **** is bad ass!!!
