But even then...what casual makes an account on a boxing website just to shoot the **** about random ****?

This one here. Does my head in. Every time some fkn fight don't get made, it ain't cos negotiations failed or the financials or timing ain't right (the real, rational reasons fights don't get made) - someone always has to whip out their mallards.

Only time it's remotely justified (and IMO it's never really justified for keyboard warriors to impugn the courage of guys who actually step between the ropes) is when Champions refuse to fight their mandos, and in many cases not even then as there are often other legitimate financial reasons why such fights don't get made.

exactly.

like i always say, if 5 guys want to fight you and you fight the number 1 out of those 5 then your ducking the other 4 according to fa990ts on here.

'Adjustments'

Used by people who can never actually explain you what the adjustments were.

getting kocked down = glass chin

ducked is way over used

coward is as well

exposed because u lost to or had a hard close fight with another professional fighter after u dominated everyone else.

use the ring, footwork, and angles, and actually moving out of the way of an incoming glove = runner

"Sweet science!" "Science of boxing is about taking no punishment" "It's called inside fighting" when the guy literally runs onto ppl to clinch them or run his azz away.
"A young prospect" when guy is nothing but another fighter but has gotten a win over some C level famous fighter.
"Just a power puncher" towards Mike Tyson, Golovkin or Kovalev, total disrespect, a total blasphemy.
"Defensive fighter" ppl call everyone who has decent defensive skills like that, there is a diff. btw having a good equilibrium of defense n offense like Floyd and being a Sweet Pea.
"Ali, yea float like a butterfly sting like a bee, dancing." Morons try to sum up Ali with only his dancing and motto as if he wasn't an excellent technician.
"Euro robot" Once again, morons fall for this. They think esp. Caucasians are robots with no technique. Kovalev, Golovin, Loma, Pirog and others are also robots for them. Little they did know when the Soviets adopted boxing they developed their style by approaching as technicians.
"Technician" everyone running away is a technician and aggressive fighters or esp Mexicans can't be technicians for them.
