KnOcKoUt -or-DECISION?

[BOXERJOSH]

i prefer to see knockouts but if all fights end up like ward-gatti then decisions are good for me, lol...

the difference really are the judges... ko's don't need judges opinions... decisions do... and you can't rely on decision that much

I cant disagree with that! those ward-gatti fights were brawls....gave a true meaning to phone booth warfare.(if anyone remembers what a phone booth is, lol)

As a fighter, I'll take a win anyway I can get it.....knockouts are awesome, especially the lethal left hook to the liver, thats my favorite.

I saw a few of that, some authored by Mike McCallum come to mind rather quickly. He was called "The Body Snatcher".

Come on man, who wants a fight to go to the decision. No one.

Its all about the tko.

when fighters battle evenly across the rounds of the fight to the distance, the decision of the fight is a good identifier of the winner, however when a fight goes the distance with one fighter taking a beating, its a no brainer who the winner is.....but the knockout, no question who won that fight!!! Knockout any day for me. Thanks for the posts everyone!

Knockouts are good for business. The more people get knocked out on PPVs, the hotter the sport becomes.

I won't take either, buddy! Neither one to the liver nor one to the head, or any to anywhere.

In any case, huge punches are what make me admire and respect fighters for how much they can take as much as what they can give. To say it's a painful business, this boxing, is to understate.
