I agree and disagree...

In his peak, Mike Tyson would still come at you, and his head movement and footwork prevented his opponents from hitting him, but when he got them, they were doing the chicken dance...:mjlol:

Jogging around the ring is BORING...What will happen if someone facing Floyd decided to stay in his corner and not chase Floyd around the ring, how will they fight...?:lolbron:

I love Mike Tyson's style because he was FEROCIOUS but he also had good defence with his movements..

Having "good defence" is NOT an excuse for having a weak offence...I don't mind the defence, I just find boxing offence to be too boring these days...

Ali could stand in the pocket and duck 100 punches, and knock dudes one with one of his counters...That's what today's boxing is missing...

Fighting for points will RUIN all combat sports...In a combat sport, there should be a CLEAR winner even before the judges read their score cards...

That's my opinion... .

Everybody gets schooled if they really about that life...

THAT IS NOT THE POINT...

Fans don't have a problem with defence, we have a problem with soft and non-aggressive offence...If boxing is going to come down to "fighting for points" then they might as well start wearing the sparring gear and box Olympic style...:mjlol:

Somebody needs to design sparring gear and gloves with electronic sensors that can accurately score clean shots to target areas, and let boxers fight for points that way...

People love MOST art forms for "emotions and feelings" When shyt is too technical then only those (the very few) who appreciate technique as an art in itself, will enjoy that shyt...

The rest of us want "emotions and feelings and drama and action" That's why Jazz reached more people than European Classical Music...
