I'm 28 years old. 6ft and 180lbs in great physical shape.. could calderon hurt me?

[ChalantSavant]

Welcome buddy... That's my point.. I'm not saying Calderon wouldn't beat me on point but what I am saying is that he wouldn't knock me out and I said Malignaggi wouldn't spark me clean out in 1 shot either... This is my point..

You may have specified in a later post, but simply stating "KO" doesn't (in my mind) have to equate to.. you got your lights put completely out. Malignaggi could likely do that easily.. Calderon maybe not so.

Both could beat you into a concussive state though.

The tide is turning lol...there is no way calderon is knocking me out... He is absolutely tiny... I don't think people realise just how small Calderon is and if they did they would feel a little silly....

Segura only had a 4 inch height advantage over Calderon, and looked like Andre The Giant in front of him. I'm sure you'd look like Paul Bunyan in front of him.

But let me just say one thing, in a boxing match, height doesn't matter. Weight does though.

Also, you can come in to the fight all confident that you know he can't knock you out, it's almost a fact to you that he can't knock you out. But don't forget Calderon was a great counter puncher and had great handspeed, so while you're all confident of fighting a little child size boxer who can't knock you out, it's that one punch you don't see coming that can wobble/stun you or accumulation of those can bruise up your face and puff up your eyes, forcing a corner or doctor STOPPAGE, because of your face, and for being so behind on the scorecards and the fight just getting worse.

So basically, no he can't knock you out like a 10 count, or out cold...but Calderon can stop you by way of just puffing up your face, closing your eyes to the point where can no longer see and it's just not worth continuing to fight.

its minimumweight vs Cruiserweight..

He wouldnt knock me out.. Even with his far far far superior boxing skills

malignaggi p4p one of the worst boxers out there, i also think i could hang in there for a round, not 12, he would KO me cause ill be too tierd, 3 mins though, id love to spar that featherfisted bum...

what???

just slap urself right now smh

[TheUndertaker]

I'm not claiming to be a tough guy etc etc... I have sparred many times at my local gym and I can hold my own with decent people in my own weight... I grew up in one of the toughest parts of Glasgow and have had my chin checked many a time and been I a lot of scraps... Granted they mean **** when you get in the ring but what I'm getting at is that I'm a decent fighter/boxer and I'm pretty sure Calderon doesn't KO me... I'm pretty certain that with my size difference I could pressure him enough... My punches whether they landed on arms and elbows would still be a massive impact on him... 7 stone and 1 foot is gargantuan weight and height advanteges... His best shot of KO'ing me in my opinion is body shots

I've met both Ivan Calderon and Paulie Malignaggi and although I'm bigger, muscle wise and weight wise, I know they would both smoke me after a few rounds. It doesn't matter how much pumch resistance you have unless you train to fight 12 round pro fights, you will not last. I am 5'7" 180lbs and KO'd a 6'2" 200lb guy in a 3 round fight but against these former champs, no dice. It all boils down to stamina and conditioning.

If you say so. I believe you, he can't knock you out. But he can TKO you.

But do you feel good about yourself though? You know 5' is like, a 3rd-5th grader right? And Minimumweight is like, also a child. So even if you did last the distance with him, you'd be looked at as a p*ssy in the first place, for even entertaining a fight with such a short, small guy. I rather get knocked out by Saul Alvarez, rather than go 12 with Calderon.

I am shorter than you are and I am positive I could choke Ivan out. In fact any MMA fighter wins against a boxer in a street fight since most fights end up on the ground. I'd just impose my size on him and take him into submission.

[krimzon]

any street mma bum can choke a boxer out. It doesn't take as much skill as boxing does.

there is still a 60lbs weight difference and a 5 inch height difference between your example and me and calderon...

Thread starter is obviously delusional and in need of a serious chin check. I hope that he gets it sooner rather than later as it will help him to see just how idiotic he looks right now..........Rockin'
