Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[Yuzo]

was gonna post this in addition to what @mr. smoke weed posted. When you throw the right, your head gotta be on a downward slipping motion going back up. SOmetimes, it can be countered too though, if you too slow with the right, and your opponent slips the punch

when you were a kid do you ever remember playing hot hand? boxing and hot hand are the same thing.

the guy throwing a check hook has to try to create seperation from the right hand.

the guy throwing a right hand has to try to throw his right hand and come in on and/or under the check hook.

who hits who is whoever has the best timing and spacing.

the same thing is true for southpaw check hooks.

spinks has to try to come in on and/or under the check hook.

taylor has to try to create more seperation.

but I think once you get it, you get it lol.

thats a good way to put it. you cant overthink boxing. boxing is instinctive.

@Yuzo my left hok is garbage. can you help a breh out ?

ok pm me

looks like if Thurman extends his right hand instead of trying to parry he could score...not effective punch...but still score.

True.He was in worse condition in that fight than alvarado was in the rios fight when it was stopped. And imagine fighting back to back wars with ruslan and marquez in 1 year? And you know marquez is always down to brawl. shyt I think after that fight no one was trying to brawl with provodnikov. Not Matthysse not Molina no one. That chin is made of adamantium

BATB did that so, you ain't have to go through that.

...

@ they pretty much mentioning fighting a mandatory as some kind of a joke... These dudes have thick skin on them...

Does Brook even want to do anything with his career later or he viewed this GGG fight as some "enter the high pursue fighters league" from where he never wants to turn back and only chasing big money fights from now on...

If Brook thinks he is Mayweather or Canelo all that sudden cause he had one higher awareness fight then he is in for a rude awakening. There are some fighters who can pull off only fighting with whoever they want without giving a fukk about belts, they are very few and Brook, you're not among them probably never will. Neither Khan.

Clock is ticking... What is the deadline for Brook to decide about defending his belt or not?

If he's gonna announce like a day before the deadline that he vacates...

There’s a difference between using one of Carlin’s “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television” and using derogatory slurs. There’s no place for them, even in a sport like boxing.

“Boxing is Keith Thurman’s job. We shouldn’t shrug off getting called racial slurs as being part of that job,” said James Harrison, a friend and boxing observer who cohosts our occasional installments of Fighting Words Radio.

“Even as a black man who uses the N-word, I still have to honor the wishes of other black people who don’t want to be called that or who don’t want to hear that,” Harrison said. “I don’t think Angel understands that.”

This wasn’t the first time that Angel Garcia veered into racial insensitivity. Late last year, 140-pound champion Terence Crawford called out Danny Garcia. The trash talk between camps included Crawford accusing Angel of alcohol and drug abuse. Angel responded via a FightHype.com interview with a variation of the N-word and by making fun of Crawford’s “nappy hair.”

“If you put those quotes from the Thurman press conference and the quotes about Crawford side by side, somebody might say Angel has ill feelings toward black people, at the least,” Harrison said.

Thurman-Garcia is a very good fight and a big event airing on national television. Harrison won’t be tuning in.

“I don’t want to contribute money or even a view to a fight that condones racial slurs,” he told me.

This picture of Andrade, Porter, and LSC....the height differential between Andrade & LSC is the exact same as Easter & Loma.

 

[The axe murderer]

BATB did that so, you ain't have to go through that.

It seems that when provodnikov doesn't respect your power he is an absolute nightmare even when he does lose.

It's an issue of weight.

Brook really can't make 147 anymore (without killing himself). He'll do it for Khan or Pacquiao because those are big money fights. He won't do that for Spence because there's not enough money in it for him

 

[The axe murderer]

I'll rewatch the fight later and score it.

But I thought Huck won and got a bad decision.

Same here. Povetkin got at most 4 or so rounds
