Comments Thread For: Anthony Yarde Gives Praise To Callum Smith Ahead of Artur Beterbiev Clash

[Boro]

I don't understand why fans believe good fighters must be completely invulnerable to pain. They are not wearing armor so any man not named GGG can be hurt on any given night. It's not so much that a fighter can get buzzed or even dropped, but rather how quickly and effectively he recovers. Bivol has rarely been clipped and hurt in fights, and when he has been hurt, he's come back with fire.

I'm not surprised at him getting hurt, I'm surprised at him getting hurt off a feather duster when he's been in with big punchers and not been hurt apart from against smith which was right on the bell which has already been discussed in this thread.

Again, it’s a bit hyperbolic to suggest that Lyndon Arthur has feather dusters for fists and can’t hurt somebody or even crack an egg. Lyndon Arthur is levels below Dimitri Bivol, but he is a world-class fighter, among the very best in the entire world at his weight. He can certainly throw a punch hard enough to hurt any man if it lands clean.

No shít it's hyperbole, you got a stick up your ass or something take something like that literal!? clearly it's a figure of speech and i'm just comparing him to his contemporaries, Bivol is the same...

Anyone can throw a punch to hurt someone to hurt a man if they land clean with proper technique, nothing to do with "power"...

Contradicted your own argument.

Yes because I was making an argument right, simpleton...

A bit of hyperbole to emphasis a point equates to an argument in your world, cool.

Also the operative word was "can" doesn't mean "will".

I used to box (illegally) I couldn't crack an egg but i had enough pop to keep people and if I caught you right i'd have people snoring but it wasn't common.

But if you going to present openings and your "opponent" be it in the street or ring w/e it's going to happen for anyone...
