I have developed a foolproof way to combat running boxers!!! (pbf, Dirrell etc)

I think Merchant called that fight an embarrassment. It was pretty bad

It's as ******ed as Robert Allen being B-Hop's mandatory; after B-Hop rematched him due to Mills Lane accidently pushing B-Hop out the ring in their first bout. It was an embarrassment to see B-Hop be obligated to face that weak of an opponent. Hakkar didn't deserve that shot.

i implemented this tactic against some *** ass ****** who did nothing but run on xbox live

***in dude made me hate roy jones during that time frame

Ok, so when you are the slower fighter and you are trying to land something but getting pwned, what should you NOT do?

Carry on chasing and getting pwned, thats what!

So heres what you do instead, start running!

I'm serious, get your arms pumping like the 6 million dollar man and start running backwards!

Your opponent will be shamed into coming forward, and then.........BOOM!

No, you should fight and outthrown and outlanded, but have the fight in your hometown, so you get a bull**** decision. They whine and complain and apologize about how the fight was a stinker.

Or we can implement a similar system to what th UFC uses which relieves some of the stress of the dreaded "loss" column and rewards entertaining fighters who take chances by giving them more tv dates, and bonuses for KO of the night and fight of the night.

I tell you what my foot speed isn't as fast as my handspeed..When I encounter a runner. I just stand and wait for them to come to me sometimes. A quick jab as they come in, to set up my bigger stuff. Doesn't matter how fast they are, once they have committed to an attack, they can be hit.

that'd certainly motivate some guys to go toe to toe more often

Well there is such thing as fighting defensively while still being entertaining. Pernell Whitaker and James Toney are great examples. It would make boxing in general more entertaining and losses less detrimental to fighter's careers to stop the foolishness of these supposed "boxing clinics" that certain fighter's stinkers of fights get characterized as.

...Or just cut off the ring..

I've always felt that if you can't cut a guy off in a 20x20 space, maybe you don't deserve to win anyways.

stand in the middle of the ring, dont press and let em come to you.
