    Exactly my point. A lot of times I hear people saying he's ducking him and it just makes me laugh. I mean it does happen, but it is a big thing to accuse a fighter of, especially as they have the courage to get into the ring in the first place, and most of these idiots that post in here have never even been in a ring, let alone have any knowledge on the sweet science. Yet in their infinite wisdom and online bravery they continue to ruin threads and troll with their utter nonsense.

      I know, so let's hear from the educated fans with knowledge and cases where you genuinly thought someone did duck someone and have valid reasons why.

        Good, succinct definition there.
        I'd also add that if a fighter has been running his mouth and then that opponent he has been trashing turns around and wants the fight and then you don't answer the phone or e mails AND it's the biggest financial fight to be made, I'd say that qualifies as a duck as well.

          Show me all the threads by educated fans talking about ducking?

          Talking about ducking & educated fans in a thread is like pooping in the middle of your kitchen & waiting for the queen of England to show up to knight the turd. I mean it may happen but my money is on it just attracting flies.

          So goes reasonable ducking debates.

            Your probably right mate, but it just so happens I woke up this morning on my kitchen floor to find the Queen herself with sword in hand, standing over a huge **** I'd squeezed out only hours before and then passing out!

              Aside from the usual ducking accusations that get argued over for hundreds of pages, I can recall Hopkins walking away from negotiations with a prime RJJ while discussing the rematch. Hopkins refused a 40% split and basically priced himself out of the fight. At that time Jones was the clear A-side and more popular of the two.

              Most ducks come by way of “marination” or moving up in weight.

                    Definitely no doubt about these 2. But I have a little more respect for Davis. At least he came out and said he's ducking Loma instead of making excuses

                    But Rod**** Bowe ducking L. Lewis is a obvious one

                      If the top fights aren't happening, the bulk of the blame has to be pointed at the guy with the belts and the all the money and power.
