    slow hands, bad chin, bad stamina, no heart, featherfisted etc....which fighting flaw irritates you the most in a fighter? Which flaw is it hardest for you to overlook when evaluating that fighter?

    No heart. Example from the Canelo-Chumpez fight where you'd want Chumpez to go out on his shield but instead he fought like a pussy to go the distance.

    The OLDER REED Gets, the LESS Time he Invests in Featherfisted Fighters...

    If You Can't HURT Your Opponent Appreciably and it's GIVEN Your Fights are Going the Distance, there's ZERO Suspense in Watching...

    Fuck That...

    I agree with this. I commonly find myself turning the channel if I am watching a fight where I see no chance of either fighter being able drop the other. Which is why I have never been a fan of female fights.


    I need to see fireworks or I quickly lose interest.

    I'm with Neil. Poor punching technique irks me the most. It's why I never gave a shit about Khan's handspeed.... because his technique is laughable.

    Yep, two fighters in a sub-featherweight division with extremely low knockout percentages, scheduled for 12 rounds,.. nah I'm not having that anymore. I want death.

    Poor chin irritates me the most. I hate fighters that get hurt too easily. I'm like " what the fuck is wrong with that fragile pussy?". I see bad chinned fighters as cunts. I respect THE CHIN. A man has gotta be able to take punches

    I'd say the ability to throw. Fighters who 'just can't let their hands go' are frustrating

    A Fighter w/a Poor Chin is Akin to Being a SLOW Sprinter, or a WEAK Powerlifter...

    Oxymoronic...

    Amir Khan is a VERY Good Fighter; Until he Gets HIT...

    If a Fighter is Featherfisted, the LEAST He Can Do is Compensate by Having a HIGH Workrate...

    A Featherfisted, LOW Volume Puncher Shouldn't Be Televised...

    Lack of heart. Which is why I hate wlad with a passion, and all decent boxing fans should do so

    Yup, agreed on mayweather fights of late being less than exciting. That's why he has lasted so long though; he had the skills to avoid drama.

    What Separates a Guy like Rigondeaux from Latter Day Floyd is Rigondeaux Possesses LEGIT Power, Despite Flat Out REFUSING to Lead and Being a Low Volume Puncher...

    There's @ Least the THREAT of Somebody Getting Knocked the Fuck Out, When Rigondeaux Fights...

    Poor punching technique, no heart, no power.

    I can forgive a weak chin if you at least have heart.

    Agreed, he showed heart up to a certain point. But it was way too late to salvage the rest of his cowardly career

    :lol:

    Go back to the Purritty fight.

    The entire US boxing scene was doing a Dan Rafael "I didn't see it but here is what happened" routine.

    An entire sporting cast of Kelly Anne Conways rambling on about shit that never happened.
