    Do you guys ever talk boxing?

    You know like basic maneuvers, jabs, rights, hooks, pivoting; simply the art of boxing. I never hear the sweet science being discussed, and rarely do I hear anyone talking about the boxers training regime, or their diet. I know there is a board for training, but it's always dead. I respect a lot of you guys in these forums because you are very knowledgeable about the sport, but some people I have to question. Some guys sound like they don't even like boxing, and are just but mere fanboys. Who the f**k cares about another man's sexual orientation? That's all I hear about when I hear about Floyd. And so what if they showed Cotto naked; why make a thread about? gay? I don't know I like this site, but there are to many fanboys in here, which outnumber the boxing fans. If some of you guys were real boxing fans, there's no way you'd be calling another boxer a b**ch, or disrespecting him like some guys do. These guys are world class boxers, and until some of you try their profession you shouldn't talk sh** about them.


    also like aristotlemoses said What pisses me off to be honest is that when a fighter loses he is automatically written off and said to have been exposed. Like tonights fight could be an amazing fight but the loser will get bashed on here so much. When in fact they could still go on to have great rest of their careers.

    Sorry for my rant, and I hope you guys enjoy the fight tonight.

      Exactly I fu**ing hate that about this site. All of a sudden a guy is exposed, or overhyped because he lost. Give me break.

        I think alot of people on this site do enjoy that. But there is a percentage of nuthutting idiots who spam the forum and are very active with thread making and posting.

                  Excellent thread. I agree.There is way to much BS going on. People get caught up in drama or get obsessed with hating on other fighters that the Sweet Science gos out window.

                  Some those keyboard warriors out there who like to call certian fighters quitters when they don't have the balls to get in a ring themselves.

                  There will be a thread tonight that says Blank exposed! Freakin shame.
