[Bretty Poy32]

[Schism]

Since when was getting wet cool?

' Guys, I got in the shower last night with my clothes on '.

' Aww bad manz. '

' Gangstaaaa '

[El Castigador]

Do you get points in a boxing match for taking punches or giving them???

[Black Zombie]

Realistically, taking punishment isn't cool....

I'de much rather dish it out play the defense...than continually take shots to the face...

Mo**ey Mayweather was right, taking punishment is not cool, when you don't have to.

PAC was a great example of a guy who took a lot of shots, just to show he could take Cotto's. But in that same fight, he showed how easily he ducked under Cotto's hooks, which he should've done from the get-go.

And what did PAC get out of standing in-front of Cotto, a busted eardrum and swollen face. Why take unnecessary punishment when you don't have to ?

From that perspective, I agree with Mo**ey Mayweather.

boxing is the art of hitting your opponant and not getting hit, i feel a lot of people on this forum just like fights not boxing, go watch Kimbo in a street fight....

[Souroush]

boxing is about hitting and not getting hit, it is derived from fencing,

you should go back to watching mma



was that really cool of pacquiao, does that make him a better boxer

[pistol whip]

I don't disagree with him but at the same time it doesn't mean we have to be put to sleep watching you and your sneaky little righthands that don't hurt a blown up jr Lightweight(Marquez).

MMA killed boxing

Basically the same thing Victor Ortiz said. I agree with them.
