    yea, but i find even odder is when a fighter nods his head! what is a fighter trying to do when he does this?

    stevie johnston did it once or twice last night. Ur basically telling ur opponent that hes powerful and that his punches hurt!

    I guess it could be used to give ur opponent the wrong impression and get a mental edge, but it still seems wack to me

      To me it DOESNT always. Jones does it alot in his career, when he was hurt you knew it. Quartey does it often with a little grin. Winky Wright does it almost everytime he gets hit ( watch the Mosely fight, he did it every time Shane hit him )

      Pacquaio likes to add a little dance with his hands in the air ( see Morales and Barerra fights ) Delahoya does in often too but hard to tell if he's hurt or not. In the first Mosely fight he did it a lot but I know Shane hurt him in that fight.

      WIth Jones though in the first Tarver fight you knew he was hurt everytime he was on the ropes and got clipped with Tarvers left hand yet he kept shaking his head like "nope" that didnt hurt! lol

      Theres no point to this thread really...I just thought it was an inresting topic of discussion.
      In Pac's case....I think he is legitimately hurt. He seems to only do that when he's getting the short end of the exchange.

      Wright never is really hurt when he shakes his head and smiles. That's a showman's tactic, and he's been doing that for twenty years.

        That's bull****, Taylor was hurting him.

        I couldn't help but notice how fighters you don't like are hurt when they do it, but not the fighters you like.

              So basically you can't defend yourself?

                thats what I meant when Winky shakes his head everytime. He does it almost consistently everytime he gets hit whether a jab or a straight punch.

                The Taylor fight was different though, some of those shots had to stun him and maybe even hurt him but his natural reaction is to shake his head like "nope" he didnt do nothing to me!

                Mosely punches didnt even phase him though , nor did Vargas and I am a big Vargas fan.

                  SOme fighters nod there head to aknowledge that the other guy has given him a great shot. Delahoya does this frequently.

                    What are you rambling about?

                    You've established that you're easily the number 1 Taylor nuthugger on this site.

                    On top of that....You've stated that you recently started watching boxing, and that explains many of your posts.

                    When you heard Lampley screaming as Taylor landed on Wright's gloves, you jumped out of your seat because of the "Popping Noise"

                    You're predictable as ever.
