going beyond 90 degrees is actually better for your knees because its the hamstrings and glutes that you bounce back up off, not the knee joint as...
225 doesn't seem impressive because 95% of people obsess over the bench to the neglect of every other lift for some reason. So the guy you see at...
As Buddy and Lok said, 225 is pretty good, especially if your other lifts are in proportion to it. If your just a bench jockey (like 90% of gym...
I thought he was totally RIGHT not to come out for the 9th. What was the point? To me he'd quit 5 months earlier anyway when he decided he wasn't...
I don't think he's grasping at straws, I just think he's decided that 'heavy handed' means 'moderately powerful' all by himself and expects...
agreed.
Nah, Vitally has more stoppages because he's more accurate and he can fight more aggressively without having to nurse the china chin. He's a...
Vitaly's the better fighter for sure. Those punches are messy looking, but they are actually incredibly accurate, he pulls them out from the...
Agreed it was pitiful. Open scoring contributed I think, knowing he had lost every round discouraged him and gave him the reason he needed. But to...
Buddy, out of curiosity, how many less pull ups do you manage than Chins? I never really trained overhand style for some reason and when I tried...
Tried HSPUs for the first time the other day, was chuffed to manage 3 full range. :cheer: Yeah, I know, pitiful compared to you lot, but not bad...
Yawn, you lot sound like bitter Scotsmen!:lol: That's all we hear about here regarding Buchanan .....how he was 'robbed' by the cheating Duran who...
McNeely wins due to his superior modern athleticism & power
because he was vastly, VASTLY better than Tito, that's why :lol:
Don't confuse accomplishment and ability though. What Tito had was ATG consistency matched with a barely above a average champions ability. A guy...
Since Trinidad literally doesn't have two boxing brain cells to rub together, I'd go with Duran every day of the week....even the walking zombie...
I think he's one of the most disgusting and detestable bastards in sporting history. Utterly charmless prick.
Hatton was going forward ie in Lederman's tiny little mind, winning.
would hardly take steroids to bulk up 10lb. And I feel like I should point out that half the guys in todays top 50 could probably get to...
In 05 I'd pick Hatton.
was just thinking the same thing. He seems to be one of the few top level modern fighters who can consistently produce fights that aren't littered...
Finally something we can agree on.
Tito-Oscar and Toney-Jirov being draws both stand out in my mind. Neither of those fights were remotely close. The guy can't score for shit, he...
Almost done with building my parallel bar station/squat rack. I'll post picks either later today or tomorrow.:hammert:
Yeah fair enough, I see your point....it's just that the article wasn't about really about Marquez-Casa though, it was about the scoring of fights...
I actually thought it was one of the saner explanations of how to score a fight I've heard from a judge. 'Whoever put more hurt on the other guy...
Marquez won. I had it by 3 or so as i remember.
Louis was less than 10lb lighter than Shavers, was 5x as skilled and hit just as hard. Too hard for Norton.
no he didn't 'lose' it. 3 fat guys said he did and I be damned if I see any reason to give any more weight to their subjective opinion (with all...
I see where you're coming from with it. They're fairly similar stylistically, I just think Louis was much better. Much more accurate, compact...
