Horus Presents: BOXING FANS VS. FIGHT FANS (Which 1 R U?)

[Glamour Puss]

If you are truly a "BOXING FAN" how can you find his fights boring?

If you are truly a "BOXING FAN" how can you say you should be trying to win the fight by KO?

when did being a boxer require you to always try to knock the other guy out?
what about fighting your fight, and if the knockout comes it comes..

His fights are boring. This isn't amateur boxing or Olympic boxing.

Its professional boxing, people pay to see skilled guys scrapping.

Not one guy potshotting a FW for 12 rounds and not engaging.

Your premise as usual, is faulty.
Probably cuz' you're a dumbass w/ a low IQ.

Horus Presents: BOXING FANS VS. FIGHT FANS (Which 1 R U?)

It has become every so apparent to me that the lines have been draw in the sand when it comes to Floyd Mayweather Jr.

On One Side you have the BOXING Fans. Who Praise Him as the one of the Pound 4 Pound best they ever seen, and an all time Legend. I am talking about true boxing fans, those who love the art of boxing and appreciate the skill, discipline and dedication it takes to be truly great in the sport.

On the other side you have the FIGHT fans, those who question Mayweather status as a great fighter and Criticize he fight style as “BORING” “LACKING DRAMA” AND “DOESN’T TAKE RISK”. In simpler terms, the fans that love blood and guts warriors, and who praise raw aggression over season skill, and risk taking over discipline.

So here is the question If you had to pick 1 or the other which one are you and why?

BOXING FAN
FIGHT FAN

Horus: Boxing Fan

My argument
Is BOXING IS AN ARTFORM...
Floyd Mayweather jr. has mastered the ARTFORM of boxing
Just look at the compubox numbers!!! He is a plus 32

Why bleed and cut it you don't have too?
I don't blame Floyd for not wanting to be punch drunk.
I don’t want to see him in there just swinging crazy wild ass punches.
That’s not what I expect from or want to see from Floyd, as so called “boxing fans” shouldn’t either.

Could you imagine someone like MIchael Jordan dumbing down his skill level to make a basketball game closer so people can see a more competitive game?

Or Jerry Rice purposely dropping passes so football fans can see how he struggles under pressure.

Allot of "so-called" boxing fans but really are just "FIGHT FANS" are always trying to force Floyd and other fighters that practice the sweet science to abandon their defense and put there chin in the air for there enjoyment.


FLOYD is boxing at its purist form.
So the excitement you should get is not Wanting Floyd to change his game up...

But wanting to see if anybody will take the risk like Castillo did in order to beat Floyd.....

Floyd shouldn’t have to change his style to accommodate FIGHT FANS like you.

BOXING FANS love his style just the way it is...

yay, pretty colors and different fonts and sizes!

fighting and boxing are the same thing.

[Glamour Puss]

If you pick guys that cant win...you want get hit. If you pick a guy that can hit you ...you will get hit. Thats skill? LOL Thats ducking... I guess ducking the best fighters is a skill.

Thats Floyds #1 skill.

I thought this was about Boxing fans vs Boxing AND MMA fans aka fight fans which I am. I didn't have a clue this was a Mayweather thread, should have guessed though. Anyway wrong vote, sorry.

[Oasis_Lad]

Larry, you're a Mayweather fan - pure & simple- just accept it and stop making **** threads.

You couldn't give a **** about anyone else.

[Eaner0919]

How about this my next thread I will breakdown Cotto Pacquiao
Just like I did with Cotto Margarito.

would you be happy then?

no

why

because it relates to Floyd

how

try the super 6 lets see what you really know about the sport if you claim to be such a fan of the sport not the fighter

[Clyde Barrow]

I enjoy both boxing and slugging.

And what is your obsession with PBF Horus? Are you a straight man? Now opinions on him as seen on this forum run so deep in your mind that you think they reflect everyone's? Anybody who does not emphatically endorse his every word and move is not a boxing fan, because you say so? You paint this forum with self righteous garbage every time I see you posting. So what if everyone else does not embrace PBF as strongly as you do? You could have simply asked if fans prefer a brawl or a tactical boxing match. But instead, your modus operandi is to plug PBF and belittle anyone who dare not worship him as strongly as you. Disguising this thread as a question on preference of ring style is weak and transparent. PBF is a rare fighter whose talents we should all respect whether we like him or not. That's as far as it goes. Other people may simply have opinions that differ from yours. Deal with it. Grow up and be a fan, not a stalker.

[MARKBNLV]

Honestly the constant hate of Floyd shows how much most boxing fans respect him ,even through there hate, they can not believe the senseless **** they say,or they would no have to argue about it all day long.

[MARKBNLV]

there are a lot more fighters out there then the current 3 fighters no one will shut up about.

Well I should have rephrased myself, I'am a boxing fan but not on the terms that you just made up out of thin air.

And you should be trying to win by KO because the goal for every fighter should be to beat up on the other guy not just score points, and if it isnt then your a fighter with not much heart.

My question for you is though what is more impressive, a fighter landing 200 punches in a fight and KOing his opponent, or a fighter only getting hit 30 times in a fight and winning by UD.
