The next paragraph is just...I dunno what to tell you son. Are you ****ing with me? More mass requires less effort? You at least, the very least, have a surface level understanding of what E=MC2 is meant to mean.
In the third paragraph you are applying modern boxing to past situations. I mentioned flopping for a reason. You can't pound a man who is flopping, you can clinch him either....or maybe you can. Maybe you are the special magic giant who did not evolve into a superior being but just has magic reaction timing that's superior to every human who ever tried the sport....but for them rest of mankind the reason you have such a long period when giants were less successful is because men that size were not in a sport that was fair to them.
then you move into actual characters. JJ and Jeffries both come from a time when defense was new to white america. Marciano is unbeaten and undersized and comes from a time when defense is well known and highly practiced.
Primo Carnera was the installment of fascists. Did youse seriously never pick up how boxing reflects politics? When the Irish-American audience is biggest we has Irish-American champion. Queen Vic's Diamond Jubilee? Need us a Commonwealth champ huh? Thanks Bob. The year Canada was grabbing up land and claiming the 20th century would be Canadian also so a Canadian champion....all of this was the most natural and uncorrupted turn of events man has ever seen.
Primo's team done told on him, the sanctioning bodies that existed back then done came clean about their dirty doings. It isn't Primo you should mention as the giant of the 30s. That's George Godfrey. The black man who whooped Primo something terrible, and then DQ'd himself out to get paid because Primo fights fixed fights. That whole era is about bringing black men to Europe to pad European records with European coin.
Well I'm clearly not an alternative medicines quack, bubba I thought you done knew I make prosthetics.
You don't see how the study of human movement can explain how and why bigger people have more stamina problems? Jesus ****ing murphy son, if you don't think the study of human movement explains stamina what the **** do you believe does? That's really, really silly. Think about the **** you said to me...in text...right there or all the world to see....that was just dumb bud.
We've all boxed in our youth. You're again applying modern sport, meaning rules that did not exist back when big men were not so successful, to a time period where it does not fit. Are you the MW or HW in this I was an amatuer trip down memory lane? Did you flop? Of course you didn't. How many KDs does it take to end a fight today? Even without a 3 KD rule how many do you think you could get away with? Hundreds? Alright then son, different time then innit? **** changed then didn't it? Maybe how you goes abouts playing in this new sport is different....maybe. Roll my ****in' eyes kind of maybe.
Of the two of us, I am the only one who can explain the history of weight division...The **** are you doing spouting what you assume at me?
So if I have you correctly, you do not believe a MW can hurt a HW because:
1, The average size of athletes didn't really start to take shape until the 1960s.....and that's evidence in your head for a capability that was always there no matter what kind of rules.
2, The physics and biochemistry of the human body does not explain energy consumption of the human body...god knows what you're thinking with that.
3, Mass reduces required energy to cause velocity. what the **** is that?
4, In modern boxing weight divisions make things fair ... which you seem to believe translates to ancient and bare knuckle despite knowing nothing about either.
And finally the everyone knows bull****. Yes, i am fully aware of mouth breathing cro-magnon opinions coming from people who would not know how to educate themselves if you told them the exact field of science they need to be looking into...I am fully aware rather than looking into actual science boxing fans love to propagate bull**** that's incredible unscientific while claiming some level of scientific understanding. Sweet science indeed son. Got life experiences that mean more than thousands of years of history or modern science. That is called cognitive dissonance, you're looking for the evidence you want not the evidence in front of you.
