Duran wasn't cheating to escape fighting.
Nah my discrimination is different & I've made it again and again by now - are you cheating to fight or are you cheating to escape? One is in the...
Who the fuck has more than one tadger, anyway?
Way more people out there confuse the Klits - their careers ran in near perfect parallel. So its mildly ironic. More ironic than anything in the...
Anyway, I think Wlad wins this by decision, about 8-4
'fight your way out'. All I ask. No problem for The Duran.
I agree the word gets overused but if it cant be used there......:lol::dunno:
Escapology's much more insidious. Its an attack on the fans & the sport itself, not just your opponents nuts
Ironically Vitali warrants a mention
He's an uppercut away from rivaling Louis & Tyson in punch arsenal. Sometimes he really is like having Gandhi in charge of the Red Army though
Yeah, fair point, just rather more clinching & leading with the head than I'd prefer though
That he's such great offensive gifts doesn't ameliorate the escapology for me. Cheating which wipes out an entire, legitimate dimension of the...
I hated Lewis but his negativity was measured compared to other fighters of his time. Look around now, the marque names include Old Man Hopkins,...
With Wlad allot depends on whether the ref does his job. It should be mandated that Joseph Cooper officiate any contests sanctioned on the forum.
Fernuf on that.
downsyndrome
Wlad is actually more safety first and negative then Lewis ever was. It could be said wlad's style is Lewis' on steroids :stir:
Really no conceivable reason to clinch there. It's catenaccio boxing. And cheating.
LOL@ him tweeting impenetrable Nietzche quotes for no reason between complaining Soccer Am is getting 'on his tagerz'
:lol: Indeed
Or maybe he'd just miss 1 or 2 and Wlad would KO himself from nervous shock
Thank God
I hold Wlad in lower regard than Ugo re: his chances against Tyson & Holyfield but he was fighting Mormeck last night for crisake. He could walk...
Because excessive holding is against the rules. I saw Wlad initiating at least 90% of last nights clinches. There's no rule against trying to get...
Excessive holding is against the rules, stepping back from a punch isn't - the criticisms aren't equivalent.
The fact Ruiz was cheating to overcome such a talent deficit almost makes it more forgivable. Wlad clinching for his life against a cruiserweight...
How about fighting inside with short punches or moving as per the rules of the sport?
In all seriousness the amount of clinching Wlad did last night was disgusting.
Joseph Cooper should ref every Wlad fight. Urgh.
Generally. Observe what's happened these last ten years when old style 'aesthetic' fighters like Floyd, Old Hopkins & Fat Toney have fought more...
