    Why do some boxers slip on the canvas alot and others don't?

    I watched almost every Calzaghe fight and never noticed him slipping on the ground and he is pretty slick at times.

        Why is Dirrell slipping so damn much? He slipped in the Froch fight too. Is Dirrell the only fighter to have to deal with wet corners and logos on the canvas?

        Dirrell only started seriously slipping when he put his running shoes on in the 10th round. The more he moved, the more he slipped! He had an impressive performance up until the 10th round, and things got sloppy for him all of a sudden... Like something happened...

          Since you want to bring up slipping on the canvas. Watch Cotto-Clottey or watch Mosley vs Cotto. Freshly paint advertisment or water from the cornermen arent actually friction friendly.

            These are things fighters should complain about before stepping into that ring. I mean some of these fighters can be brutally KO'd all because they tripped on a logo! And why isn't the ref or someone having a job to clean up that corner before the next round happens? Why isn't anyone held accountable? Lets just blame the fighters for it all, when it should be the refs or the cornermans fault. I mean you have two fighters engaging in a fight! Why can't someone take their damn time to clean up the corner properly?
