Not taking punishment = BOXING

[S A M U R A I]

yes great post, i agree fully.
i just want respect shown for all types of boxers.
for instance my fave is nigel benn but that doesnt mean i should have a go at people who dont fight like an animal

Nigel Benn = Benn, Watson and Eubank were awesome to watch back in the day. Good times.

Good luck with this. Realize you are making a point against popcorn-eating, couch sitting "fans" on this board who would never dare step into a ring. Therefore the ones who disagree with you are only looking at it from a fan's perspective, having no idea what its like to actually step into a ring.

Why must a fan step into the ring to understand and appreciate the sport?

It's like saying you have to drive a Formula 1 car at 250 mph to appreciate a race.

Where did I say what you just said? I didnt. The thread says not taking punishment equals boxing.

obviously u havnt read all my replies and posts on the thread

You wouldnt consider the fight a boxing match thoe. Right? It doesnt meet your criteria. Oh and it happens to be one of the top fights of the year because this is what people love about boxing. I understand where your coming from and i apreciate ppl that "box" gr8 but these hate threads have to stop.

I dont think people on here know the sport of boxing.....

let me educate you on this....

when you hit your opponant without getting hit yourself you are boxing...

when you hit your opponant and get hit back you are brawling/fighting...

watch Pernell Whitaker for an example of boxing

watch Aturo Gatti for fighting/brawling

Punching the other guy in a the face until he can't stand up any more = Boxing.

very true

it does not matter what boxing style you use either

if you can be defensive/slick and repeatedly hit your opponent until he can not stand any more then thats boxing. or any other boxing style for that matter (counter punhing, pressure fighting, volume punching)

make not mistake about it professional boxing is about putting some hurt on your opponent

no that is fighting, boxing has nothing to do with knocking somebody out, its a sport, its about winning points

amateur boxing is about winning on points

in professional boxing you get an extra point for knocking down an opponent and amateur boxing a knockdown does not equal any extra point

a knockdown in amateur boxing equals as much points as a weak scoring jab

I agree, Ive said this many times on this board. If it wasnt about points then there would be no need for a points system, they would just do it gladiator style. You dont have to hurt your opponent in order to win a boxing match.
