[NYC Rebel]

Yo if I took that same shot I'd be straight


I prolly woulda woke up in the hospital hooked up to an iv drip and ekg machines

You should see when Shavers clipped Jimmie Ellis in the jaw. Jimmie trying to get up is

Can you imagine if was in someone's corner for this fight?

nikka would have had to go to the hospital with lockjaw

 

[MJ Truth]

Doesn't mean there's any correlation to 15 rounds being more dangerous than 12

 

[Renzo]

Mike knocked out the Larry

True but he was a durable athlete, Tyson was the ONLY man to put him down for the 10 count..the first punch Tyson caught him with shouldve been it..no idea how he even got up from the shyt. Holmes chin was fukking granite....he even went on to fight for the title again and he beat a unbeaten Mercer..Larry needs to get his props

Would've love to seen Larry vs. Real Deal

No proof of that

are u crazy? Any fight that made it to 15 looks like two dudes ready to meet death. Theyre barely throwing punches just swinging to not fall down

Man...when I was kid, you could tell when a fight went past the 12th round. It was just two fighters running on an empty tank.

Now can your opinion be backed by proof? All I'm asking for
Things like this should be easily proven with some kind of data or proof.

Its 3 more rounds of taking punches to the head and having absolutely no stamina left. You're probably dehydrated too

Common sense would tell you that most boxers would prepare differently for 12 rounds than 15. Mook you know better than this
Now i want some evidence and proof of 15 rounds being more dangerous

shyt would just slooooooooow down in those rounds, especially with heavyweights

They work out all day alreayd. Theres no thing you can change for 15 rounds. Except take rounds 10-11-12 off and thats impossible unless the other guy is taking it off

shyt would just slooooooooow down in those rounds, especially with heavyweights

Word. Ali said he was close to death in his fight with frazier. You cant go all out 15 rounds and not be close to death

 

[mitter]

One of the very best rounds


It's kind of sad that Larry Holmes never got the credit he deserved
