        Casuals complain the most about a sport they barely watch and they always make threats about how they will never watch again but these idiots shows up to every fight party that is thrown then leave complaining about something

        Casuals only show up for Mayweather or Pacquiao, they don't know any other fighters so when those fighters are not involved they really don't know anything about boxing and a lot of times it shows. They will randomly drag Mayweather of Pacquiao into a topic that has nothing to do with them because that is a comfort zone


        Another thing that is EXTREMELY overrated in boxing...POWER! Power is great when you know how to use it correctly and you have some skills to go with your Power like Kovalev has. However when all you have is Power and you just throw Power Punches hoping to Land a KO, I have seen far too many One-Dimensional Power Punchers get just absolutely Picked Apart by a more skilled guy without the Big KO Ratio. Not just talking Pros either I'm talking Amateurs and Olympics. The guy with the most Power don't always win Gold in the Amateurs and the Olympics, in fact most of the "Power Punchers" are usually eliminated for competition rather early because if they can't land with that Power they really don't have anything else. Lets just say it is not a Coincidence that Cuba dominates those competitions every year because they're taught TRUE BOXING SKILLS and not just depending on their Power

            Waited 10 years to fight someone decent when he did fight someone decent he clinched near enough every round of it and after the fight was done he repaid fans with Frankie Gavin and Jo Jo Dan fights.

            Eddie Hearns
            This man responsible for so many hype-jobs notorious for it and has probably became the best at building a guy up just to watch him fall when he inevitably has to step up and fight a game opponent.
