Education for the idiots... RUNNING IS NOT BOXING

[Syf]

But the moment u disengage.. u run.

horribly simplistic view of things.

Admonishing people to read? Why don't you read the Art of War by Sun Tzu. He would know a little bit more about combat than you, I would guess. I don't know what gives me that notion. Just a hunch I guess.

Something along the lines of, retreat to a better position that your attacks would be more effective from.

If, in fact, you retreat with a plan to attack, that is not running. Its tactics, you cro magnon. Its only those that "disengage" as you put it, with the intent never to attack, that are truly running.

You my friend are crazy. Im sorry. Im not one to usually get into agruements with people on here but you have no clue what you are talking about. You are telling me that when you exchange in a fight that the second you back off to gather yourself or to counter your running? are you mental?
I dont know of one fighter that never "disengages" every fighter does this not just americans. So was Lennox running when he back pedaled against Vitali? This is really perplexing.

Are u really ****** or what? Are people like u really that idiotic.

Can't u do basic deductive reasoning for humanities sake?

Boxers are allowed to backpeddal yes.

U can backpeddal all u want even to the point of running.

But the moment u backpeddal make sure u DOMINATE... if u dont know the definition of the word dominate look it up on the dictionary..

Again.. u dominate ur aggressor or else u lose the round.

It's as simple english sentence construction as I can possibly make.

Persistent lack of comprehension... I suggest u go back to school.

If u do not know that adage.

Then u really are an idiot.

This isnt even about Froch or anybody else.

If u know how to read...

It was the Americans who invented that tradition.

Now that it doesnt suit u, ur trying to make excuses around it.

But if u do not know that such an adage is glued permanently to boxing...

Then ur a moron who still has a lot to learn.

Again Ill repeat in the hopes that maybe ur brain can process this simple inescapable fact.

1. U disengage, u run, thats not boxing
2. If u disengage u have to dominate ur opponent lest u lose the round
3. Styles makes fights

Please dont forget. COz these are pinnacle traditions of boxing and if u do not know of this simple facts. U dont know boxing.

What american invented this? I would put my money on Ali, the greatest heavyweight in many peoples opinions not only americans. That was over 50 years ago. So every american fighter over the last 50 years has ran? I hope your not even that dumb to believe that.

It's kinda like Wile E. Coyote vs. The Road Runner. Wile always tries to catch Road Runner, but never does, and he looks silly trying to do so. Road Runner on the other hand, is running away from Wile, but also making him look like an idiot and doing damage himself.



Then again, Looney Tunes is just a fat yank cartoon.

LMAO @ internet losers trying to say what boxing is and what isnt

shut the **** up kid.

Dude if u do not know of this one fact. U know nothing about boxing.

Im guessing ur prolly a kid or a guy in his 20's.

[-Antonio-]

So what if he ran? He won the rounds. Can't say it enough.

[chillin8]

I've seen way too many kiddo idiots here who doesn't know the difference between running and boxing.

For the start of ur education...

THE MOMENT U DISENGAGE... U RUN...

THE MOMENT U RUN... UR NOT BOXING.

Movement in boxing is simply using angles without disengaging.

Any other definition apart from that is running.

You just stated above how much boxing knowledge you know..LOL. Go watch a toughman competition, cause your ***** ass don't know **** about boxing....

[hammerhiem]

Boxing is to move and use your space, and your intelligence with the space given..brawling like an idiot swinging wildly..is definitely not Boxing..

those who believe that movement isn't boxing should consider MMA as their sport to watch..

While I agree totally, I didn't see Dirrell do this last night until after he had a point deducted.

And I scored it 116-112 in Dirrells favour.

Dirrell basicly refused to engage except at extreme range, if he couldn't time a long shot he backed off completely and reset, if he missjudged and it got inside long range he dived in to clinch.

Once the ref deducted a point Dirrell fought rather than ran, used range effectively rather than backed off, engaged at range rather than pot shotted without engaging.

Those final three rounds where wide Dirrell rounds, and for a reason.
