Can you guys tall me why should I listen "boxing experts"?

[JakeTheBoxer]

"Boxing experts" predicted Wilder to knock Fury out.

They predicted Joshua to knock Usyk out.

They predicted Canelo to outbox Bivol or stop him.

They predicted Lopez to beat Kambosos.

What do they know? They know sh.it.

Why do we need so called "experts"?

People's most pronounced urge is that of talking. It's the first thing we learn.

As we grow up, how this urge is controlled depends on individual features. Among the many human specimens, there are those who need to assert their so-called "knowledge" about something. In reality, no one knows shìt about most everything. Usually, the ones who know a little more tend to remain silent. Wisdom, they call it.

People get degrees in psychology, or philosophy, or political sciences. They go around blathering, believing they're special, perhaps superior to the average. But they still don't know shìt about a billion of other things.

And, of course, there's the one who really doesn't know shìt about anything, the genuine ignoramus - an idiot, if you will - who for some reason believes to be an "expert" of something.

Back to square one: people just need to talk. Let them live their chit-chatting life.

Debating boxing is fun, until it degenerates into a war of insults. And, of course, boxing is the theatre of unexpected. I'm still learning - and I'm following it since the early 70s...

The thing is if you know a subject, you then know who and where the BS is. anyone can recite a book but having an understanding in the meaning of the book is an entirely different frame, perspective is all that stands between the right and wrong, knowing the words is very different than knowing the experience.

As for the topic the experts get it right way more than they get it wrong, gloating on the few wrongs is short-sighted and not understanding that favorites do lose as many a bookmaker has found out.

There used to be more articles explaining why expertise in predictions does not matter but I've had a hard time finding it.


I could do chance predictions for y'all. If you're interested in comparing yourself against experts and against chance. cards, coins, ngrs etc. Chance is pretty good actually.

[Silence]

Bcs you're lifeless big stiff idiot with ****** predictions. You only knew Canelo vs Bivol which is MW vs LHW fight. I'd rather those "fake experts" over you. Remove Fury avi and gtfoh now.

[Oracle01]

Most 'experts' just get caught up in the hype as much as casuals. Best evidence is why so many thought Canelo would not only beat Bivol but stop him. You need a rational objective mind to see through all the bs and coldly analyse fights. very rare. That's why you folks should listen to someone like me. Always spot on.
