What a very strange thread..

But yeah..I've heard of guys going in with pro fighters (and I never went beyond local level sparring) and they've said the difference in ability is unbelievable...size ain't the issue (you've heard the saying 'it ain't the size of the dog in the fight...'). Unless you're kinda superhuman, a pro boxer, no matter how small, f#kks you right up without breaking sweat.

There was a 'tube clip doing the rounds recently where a 18/19 year old street fighter comes in to a boxing gym, challenges, and has his ass handed to him by a 14 YO - the bigger guy kinda does OK for a coupla minutes but gasses real quick and the kid just pours it on til the coach stops it outta mercy.

Hold up -

There's the baby. My bad, kid was 15 big guy is 20

lol thats just wrong. I dont mind seeing 15 year olds sparring older guys in the gym who know the rules of sparring but putting a 15 year old in vs some adult off the street at 20 is borderline child abuse whether the 15 year old wins or not.

I don't agree with just putting any amateur in there. It should at least be an am with a lot of experience.

OK fine have any of you got videos of yourself sparring to prove you know how to fight and not get KO'd

What does a video of any one sparring have to do with the opinion that a 5' tall, 100lbs feather fisted boxer can not KO a 6' tall 180lbs man?

Nothing at all, I just don't believe based on TS's and my size and experience sparring better fighters than me who landed alot of clean shots on me where I got a boxing lesson or 2 or 2 dozen that a really skilled pillow fisted 100lb 5'0 tall guy has the force to put me down let alone ko me with his cleanest hardest shot.

Guys, I love boxing, but a pro boxer does not have Gameshark type of ability over another man in a fight which disregards all disadvantages. Please stop it.

35 wins, 6 by KO AT Minimumweight=105 pounds.

Let that sink in for a second before making your next post.

6 KO's at 105lbs. Log out, go outside, sit down, take some fresh air, and think about it. 6 KO's at Minimumweight.

It is the same old ridiculous "Boxing reigns supreme over everything." People really believe that boxing gives you god like powers over another man no matter the size and strength of the man.

Paulie, I imagine hits harder than his record leads fans to believe. He can definitely get the odd KO against a pro boxer let alone an ordinary guy. But Calderon with an 80lbs and 1 foot disadvantage and no power to make up for it? No way.
