Do some fighters willingly fight on the inside? Or is it only because they have to?

[The Tase]

I would find that doubtful.

i think he is. he was recently banned with his thunderdome battle with MIB and boss lady.

Wow, you're such a butt hurt Flowmo.

I said, and I quote, "Why would you fight on the inside if you don't have to?"

And then you responded with a rant saying I said this, "no fighter in the history of boxing has fought on the inside without wanting to."

You are a drama queen to the fullest.

are you timmy horton?

His point was that some boxers do want to fight on the inside. Its just as much a part of the sport as outside fighting.

Go watch some James Toney... a 'boxer' who chooses to fight on the inside

I am very well aware of that. I've watched enough boxing to figure this out.

My point is, he took one statement I made, and blew it up so we would be off topic, because me and another poster were educating him on why Rigo is so good at keeping the fight at distance.

IrondanHamza is a a very petty/sad individual.

Dammit you took my example I was going to use. LOL

James Toney. Brilliant boxer, exceptional inside fighter.

Someone else asked me the same exact thing threw a PM. No, I'm not Timmy Horton. My real name is Tim, so I went with this name.

This was my AIM username, back when AIM was still popular.

I'm curious, because I believe that some fighter's chose to fight on the inside, I apparently don't know anything about Boxing.

According to Tim2daresq in this thread;

Fighter's do not willingly chose to fight on the inside. Inside fighting is only something you do when you have to or are forced to.

Take Bernard Hopkins, for example. Is he a fighter who never willingly fought on the inside? Or did he fight there solely because he had no choice?

What do you think? Do some fighter's chose to fight on the inside?

As far as the above bolded: That's interesting, considering I have seen you mentioned quite frequently as one of the most knowledgable posters on this site.

As to your point... I think boxers CHOOSE pretty much every aspect of their game. It's no different then fighters who CHOOSE to target the body as opposed to those who primarily head hunt, or fighters who CHOOSE to box instead of brawl. That's why they say every boxer has their own style.

BTW, whoever said or insinuated that you know nothing about boxing apparently knows nothing of it themselves.

Yes, yes. I PM'd everyone in this thread

In other news, Bojangles, yes, THE Bojangles, who openly dislikes Floyd Mayweather, actuallly loves Floyd Mayweather.

Bushbaby also loves Canelo.

And Dan_Cov adores Amir Khan.

This is NSB. I know FLowmos were watching us go back and forth, and as soon as you started this thread, this were their chance to ride the wave of Flowmos.

"Nows our chance! He's been breaking Rigo and FLoyd down to the tee, and now we got em!"

LMAO, ya'll some butt hurt drama queens.

How about Andre Ward? Do you think he only fights on the inside because he has to?

Does he fight on the inside? You know, like ACTUAL inside fighters - Castillo, Corrales and Rios.

Or, is he merely forced to?

When he fought Abraham, and said after the fight "I wanted to take it to the inside but the ref wouldn't let me so I just boxed him" was he lying? He must have been.

How about against Froch, the success he had on the outside was the reason he went onto the inside.

No way he could have willingly chosen to do that.

andre ward is a great example of a boxer who fights on the inside because he wants to not because his opponents make him

Your Flowmo ass was in the other thread and now you happen to be the 2nd post. Irondan probably PM'd you, cause he's a weird, weird little man.

I'm one of the last people on this site anyone would consider a Fl0mo. Believe me.
