"Offense Is No Longer A Skill Of Boxing"-Haters

[joseph5620]

He hasnt knocked anyone out of late, but still is getting credit for something, which isnt knocking people out for sure.

Manny hasn't knocked anybody out lately either. So with your logic he can't KO anybody.

And btw, Mayweather KO'd his last opponent.

Malignaggi, Ward, Whitaker, Bradley, Mayweather


are all more complete than Pacquiao.


Uh huh........ but you are all discounting offense.


Boxing is the art of fisticuff combat. It originated from barenuckle boxing fighting until 1 person wins. no judges.

It was completely based on offense. Offense wins fights. Not defense. You can't win a fight diving and dodging throwing ***g0t punches that don't phase your opponent.

Ward and Bradley are not more complete than Pacquiao. They are point fighters in a sport that has deviated from the core appeal of boxing. KO's.


That is why Boxing is dying. Mayweather is only a draw because of his mouth. His fights are boring.




You can argue another way all you want. The fact is, historically boxing has always favored the offensive fighters. The point riders wouldn't even get marquee fights until recently, sport dying.

What did Cus say to Tyson? that's right.

At the same time, Americans no longer have fighters with true offense, so they've decided to debate boxing is about defensive abilities.


It's laughable.


Sorry son. If I see you dipping and diving on the streets your shirt will be yanked and you will be out cold within 5 seconds.


Real talk.

Real talk in real life. Defense will never win you a war. All it comes down to the color of skin or race. If Pac was black, all these *****s will suck Pacquiao **** and say how Pac offense is good for boxing while pot shotting to death are for pusssies. So it goes to Floyd if he is white or asian.

he still has fight changing power.

his offense is still A+


He broke Margarito's orbital and detached his retina.

He dropped Shane and Shane ran for the rest of the fight. didn't regain composure for another 6 rounds according to him.

He dropped Cotto twice and those were fight changing blows.

How?

Watch the fight and you won't have to ask. Unless you're just dense.

Mayweather dropped Marquez and completely shut him down at welterweight. Pacquiao didn't and many think he lost to Marquez. I can play that game too and use it against you.

Do you mean the sucker punches? I hope every fighter now fought like Floyd. Pretend to show some sportsmanship then sucker punch the hell out of him. lol

Micky Ward landed a three punch combo on Arturo Gatti while Gatti's hands were down and couldn't finish him. Pacquiao hit Marquez while he was down on the canvass and couldn't finish him. Ortiz didn't get sucker punched, he's just a sucker who got punched.

It was legal. And I can always spot a biased idiot with an agenda when they talk about "sportsmanship" while saying nothing about Ortiz intentional headbutt.

Its not really a good example though to show power or offensive skills.

People do underrate offense on here but thats also because we currently have better defensive boxers than offensive ones. If a Mike Tyson type comes along again and starts talking about offense and KO's, you can guarantee that people will be on here talking about how offense wins fights and is better.
