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

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Hard to beat a guy in a fight when the guy doesn't want to fight

I was preparing to bash Postol for his anticipated clinching in the Crawford fight, but it turned out it's not the clinching that would stink up the fight, it's the running. Which the ref has no control over. Unlike in UFC where the ref is seen motioning the runner to ramp it up. In boxing it's good footwork doe.

how are you going to tell what is boring to somebody? if its boring, its boring lol! you mind as well people tell not to have an opinion. why is it, in a sport where two guys punch each other in the face, the fans of the sport are sensitive as f**k? waaaa they said my favorite fighter is boring. so what

[just the facts]

what you lot dont seem to understand is that you can win and still be exciting. being a winner doesnt mean you have to have an ugly style and have no fans.

How long have you been following boxing?


I've told you over and over, if you can't appreciate the sport of boxing because of movement and defense (from your posts, it's obvious you can't), tune into MMA, little to no defense or movement. Right up your alley.

It's on the opponent to do something about it, don't blame the guy because his opponent isn't good enough to do anything about it.

No it's not. I'm not ok with pot shotters running to make a point win. That is the def of boring. What's so great about a fighter pot shotting all night on his back pedal? How in the slightest is that entertaining?

That's the definition of boxing, hit and not get hit. Blame the opponent for not being good enough to compete.

[ea22]

No, boring means boring.

[Basco]

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?

Wow, a guy that makes sense in NSB? I found myself an unicorn!
