the term BORING means "wins fights clearly/hard to beat" on NSB

[therealpugilist]

There have been so many ways to criticize fighters


the silliest is when trainers and fans call fighters boring

its not their fault their opponents and opposing trainers cant adapt to what they are doing


should they change their style, to entertain you? you may want them to or to make their fights more competitive, but they wont

its about winning and in a fighters mind, entertaining you is secondary, to winning and providing for their families

Its one of the weakest criticisms ever


I find it funny because all these fighters I've seen being dubbed as boring, are dominant, undefeated fighters who make it look easy

it was floyd mayweather and Wlad Klitchsko before, now Andre Ward, Guillermo Rigondeaux, Terrance Crawford, and Lara(the only one with losses)


the people who use this term, do you think its also the opponents, and the opposing trainers responsibility to adapt, instead of make excuses?

Additionally they are called boring because the beat a fanboy's guy by putting on a boxing clinic. Many guys just want to see Roc'Em sock'em robots.

^^^^^yep, cant forget the bitter fan boys " he running doe, he move to much doe, he dont get knockouts doe!!!"

they may want to switch over to the UFC....most fights at the highest level are not slugfests.

Not always though. Vlad used to win fights clearly and I thought he was pretty boring. He had some good fights but many boring ones as well.

Wlad did have some stinkers as he aged but around the late 2000s and earlier this decade people still labeled him boring and he was KTFO of his opponents

fans criticize fighters for being TOO dominant....its kinda weird.

Not really. Boring means boring - doesn't throw punches, on the backfoot all the time, and/or clinches a lot.

I don't mind seeing fighters with lesser boxing skills go toe to toe, that's fun too.

But fanboy's fall so in love with their idols, that they use his name in their sig etc.

They get their panties in a bunch and get real b1tchy & are sore losers.

[Robbie Barrett]

Exactly this. The fighter is so dominant people want him to change the way he fights to give the opponent a chance.
