Most cowardly aggressive fighter of all-time?

And it took you nine years to fully express yourself?

Where's the thread about the Most Cowardly Critical Nine Year Threads of All-Time?

 

Mosley is tougher than Gatti

 

John Ruiz is a perfect example. He had to fight aggressively because he lacked the skill to do anything except charge ahead. And yet, his unwillingness to trade with his opponents, or throw more than one punch at a time, meant that at the end of 99% of his charges was a desperate clutch for dear-life, hoping against hope, he'd gotten close enough, and with his head down far enough, so as not to expose that china chin of his and be knocked on his azz.

Hopkins too fought like this for much of his career at 160, finding refuge in the chest of his opponents, bounding there arms with his own, holding and hitting since the sport is too dangerous and requires too much skill not to break the rules.

 

he's better and tougher. and would have KOd him in 1 round if they had fought.

 

X2, Shane obviously has a better chin too, but isn't tougher.

Saying Gatti is tougher is no knock on Mosley.

 

its true. having zero defense and going life and death with marginal opposition does not make him a tougher guy.

 

Speaking of Lewis, he had his cowardly moments, when he'd hit his opponent once and then grab. Same with Wlad. Neither of these guys I'd classify as aggressive fighters, but when they became aggressive, often it was in a cowardly fashion, with zero willingness to trade, no combination punching, and no practice of any legitimate defense.

 

Gatti had to EXHIBIT "Toughness" More than Mosley Did, but that Doesn't AUTOMATICALLY Mean he WAS Tougher...If Ali had NEVER Returned to Boxing After Being Exiled, People would Question HIS Toughness Too....

Mosley Took an ASSWHIPPING in the 1st Fight w/Forrest...To the Head AND Body, yet he NEVER Quit or Even Discussed it...Winky Wright Handled him Pretty Convincingly in their 1st Fight as Well...The Fight w/Pac has JUSTIFIABLY Left a BAD Taste in the Mouths of Boxing Fans, but that DOESN'T All of a Sudden Mean that Sugar Shane was a BITCH for the Duration of his Career...



REED:mj:

 

What does boxing skills or who beats who have to do with toughness?

 

Mike Tyson. Ducked and slipped punches like a bitch instead of bravely pulling a Mayorga

 

Yeah, guys on here are dissing Shane just because of the Pac fight. Dude is 40.

 

:bears:::

 

its easier to look tough against a much lower level of competition.

 

I agree that you disagree. I wasn't being serious.

 

if you've never watched Mike Tyson fight and then listened to Ali nuthuggers talk about mental prowess then yeah.

 

Nope. You read every post in every thread?

 

People forget that Shane Mosley was afraid to throw punches for a few years after Forrest I.

In fact, the Pacquiao fight really has no influence on my opinion of Mosley.

 

marquez was getting beat up and was fortunate the fight ended as it did.

 

Forrest didn't have much of a punch and I think Mayorga exposed that.

 

Buster Douglas.

That is all.

 

Which tells more about Shane than anything.

 

What does it tell about Shane????

 

Lewis' fight with Mercer is contrary to this.

 

Haye.

 

Did someone really contend Mosley was tougher than Gatti? ::

 

both of them are tougher than katsidis if that makes you feel any better
