    On the street. No rules. No weapons. Just man to man. Could you take him? How would you do it? Take-down and ground and pound, or straight up boxing or kick to the nuts or some other way?

    Stinger, Esk, and Orion are all long gone from Fightbeat, so the answer is no. None of us ordinary men who currently post could take Floyd.

    Given that most people don't get into street fights anyway and include the thought of going up against someone who punched people for a living for 20 years, the answer is 'No'.

    1 - Most people don't know how to do this
    2 - Most people don't know how to punch properly let alone box
    3 - Lee would probably do something like this

    Could you take Floyd, Mustard? You're like 6'3, 220 or something with a 75" reach. You got amateur skills.

    Not. A. Chance.

    I´m 6´3, down to 200 now but my problem with shorter, smaller, faster guys is...I get caught in the mid-range far too often, and that can be a harsh lesson for taller, heavier boxers.
    When I´m sparring, I tend to drop my hands/guard after jabbing down and get countered all the time...I currently have a nice black eye from Monday night´s sparring session to prove it!

    Golly! With your height and reach you should be keeping shorter smaller guys at the end of your jab all night, like Lennox and Wlad and Vitali all those tall dudes.

    Tae Kwon Do isn't entirely useless because at the very least, you learn to use your legs/feet effectively for kicking and it improves your balance, kicking power and footwork. But for punching/striking, Tae Kwon Do is rubbish. Fedor actually incorporated Tae Kwon Do for a time to improve his kicks back in 05-06.

    I try to!
    It´s real tricky when they also have a high-guard though....so you´re resigned to throwing 3-5 jabs, then moving...but at some point, you need to throw a right or uppercut and that´s where the problems can occur being countered by a light-middle/middleweight.

    If you get down to 175 and use 12oz gloves, I doubt I´d keep up with the workrate.

    Plus, I´m using 16oz sparring gloves so you wouldn't feel any power. That said, I dropped the other sparring partner on Monday from a bodyshot, so it must have caught him just right because I'm not a heavy-hitter...

    Ah ok. That's cool. I don't have any boxing ability. I just throw acid and run.

    body shots can be deadly. Not surprising one can get the wind knocked out of them if they don't expect it.

    That doesn't sound very intimidating. So if somebody here had sex with your mom, wife and sister all at the same time, what would you do about it?
