Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[Newzz]

This raises an interesting question...

If y'all could spar with any professional boxer, past or present, who would it be and why?

Past? Parnell Whitaker because of his defensive prowess. I'd love to see how hard it really is to hit him. It already looks difficult on television, so I wonder how frustrating it has to be in real life


Present? Floyd. He's TBE, so who better? I'd love to see Floyd work in person from a live POV perspective, directly across the ring from me. Is he really that fast where people cannot cut the ring on him? Is he really that quick where his pull counter is automatic? Does he really hit soft? I'd love to know from 1st hand experience.


Just 3 rounds with anyone of em is all I need

Like I said nikkas live in a fantasy world. Yeah the best should fight the best but a nikka coming off an L clearly ain't the best at the moment.

I'm about to be on some snobbish shyt if nikkas ain't take 1 punch in their lives I don't wanna hear their opinion.

Kell Brook came off an L with GGG and went to fight Spence

The cherry picker can get another "tuneup" if he wants.. didnt stop him from getting that work by Thurman and it wont stop Porter from putting the beats on him

DSG will fight someone in the mean time N they'll yell duck scary etc etc

You don't call out an A side while in a camp for a fight 6 weeks out N expect the A side to wait on you

You can't be mad at the porters for chasing that mayweather McGregor money, team Garcia should be trying to follow suit....

#Facts...and even Spence wouldve been coming right off of Brook directly to Swift

That was different though I've been told

Swift getting that Jerry The King Lawler announcer money now, but I agree with you.

Floyd wanted to face Swift at one point too

Danny was 1 of the 6 fighters that Showtime preapproved when they signed Floyd to that big deal.

I believe the others were Guerrero, Maidana, Canelo, Angulo, and Alexander.

Ended up fighting 3 outta 6 :ohwelp:

Breh....that last statement is silly. You and I been brehs for a minute....you shyttin on Bert Sugar, Cus D'Amato, Angelo Dundee etc. didn't you say your uncle put you on and he's never boxed?

We all gotta stop getting too personal on this shyt, the ring the last great forum on here. If there's drama take it to the inbox.

And Virgil Hunter

But i somewhat agree with Krack's sentiments...if you haven't competed/participated in organized boxing at some level, whether amateur or pro, as a trainer or boxer and have never been in the gym on the regular...i wouldn't go as far as completely disregarding someone's opinions...but they definitely hold less weight.

There's no teacher like actual experience.

Yep

How ironic that the #1 pound for pound fighter in the world, and favorite fighter in the world for many people (including people that actually box for a living), was taught how to box.........by someone who never took 1 punch in his life

His credentials are a bit shaky outside of Ward...and don't forget that Ward's pops was a boxer, and had him in gloves before he ever met Virgil.

Muscle memory, technique & fundamentals could've already been instilled in him before hand and Virgil just maintained what he had already learned.

But Virgil has good and has proven credentials in the sport despite having never boxed...completely different situation from dudes that on their soapbox, that want to appear so knowledgable, but ain't never been in a gym, or competed and ain't did shyt in the sport period at any level.

I would say that's 100% but I'm pretty confident 75% of the dudes who post in here have gotten snuffed. Whether it be in gloves or not.
