Almost want to neg you for this shyt....Beware:ufdup:
:what:
But this isnt my opinion. Straight copy of what Dan Rafael says. Too many brehs need to remember that isn't my opinion or me cosigning his opinion. I post his chat because it is interesting and promotes discussion. If you have beef with Dan's opinion, speak your peace in here or hit Dan up on social media. Plenty of brehs disagree with Dan all the time, including myself. Doesn't mean I can't find it interesting. Brehs here have opinions I disagree with all the time, still find it interesting. Not as fun if everyone has the same opinion as you.

manny was very good on the pads. he had a thing he used to do where he had a guy throw a punch and he jerked his head or stagger as though he were just hit by a big a shot. he was trying to encourage you to know, when you throw your punches the right way, your punches can hurt a man. he had you throw your punches with good follow through. no pity pat punches. now guys reach out to swat away your punches in mid air, so you never can get full extension, so you never can get good follow through, so you turn into a pity pat puncher. manny wanted you to hit hard and he wanted you to be hard to hit. so in between taking your shots he threw shots at you too. just good hard physical pad work.

Angel Garcia, Mayweather Tarnished What Should've Been Good Week for Boxing - Boxing News

Idk man... if this is enough to him to ruin a good week in boxing then the problem is maybe with his attitude too.

Mayweather was always egoistic, old news
Angel Garcia was always an a$$hole, old news :ld:

Do I think Angel Garcia's actions were fukked up? Yeah. Did it "tarnish my boxing week"? fukk no... :what:

I know that boxing can be miserable but the attitude of MANY boxing fans doesn't help either. That "always crying, not caring enough with the positive always stuck on the negative even if it's just some minor shyt" attitude.
Seriously though... you can have a early FOTY contender at a weekend which is also a unification and boxing fans will still cry about some irrelevant shyt the next morning.

While they don't actually do anything aside of complaining...
I think there's some problem in the heads if people's weeks out there seriously getting ruined by Angel Garcia's antics like c'mon... stop being so overly sensitive, man... :beli:


I'm not an "everything is good" type of person either but this crying what some boxing fans do is too much.

no boxing sucked this week cause theres no good fukkin fights on tv this week.

plus duva bytch ass is trying to ruin a great pbc stacked card n Thurman/Garcia........lol fukk that bytch.

cant wait till all this promoter/manager dumb political bullshyt stop fukkin up the sport.

boxing cares about little shyt like super crackhead, angel "dont get high of your own supply" Garcia, cause its fukkin boring now.....good for em maybe they will learn to put on good fights every week.

im not gonna sugarcoat shyt....boxing is straight up boring cause these stupid ass promoters managers controlling the fighters too much. let these muthafukka fight till the death.

and people wonder why we always talk about the old days of boxing ....cause this some ole bullshyt that we dealing with now.

start back stacking these cards like don king, fans need to stop being stans and start putting pressure on all these hos(boxers.promoters/managers Idgaf really) that really are ducking. unless they tryna build a big money fight but still fighting b comp at least.

anybody that fukk up a good fight this year gonna get it.....fukk everybody n anybody who don't agree.:demonic:

yep and steward boxed before too.

do know anything about his most prized prospect Bernard “Superbad” Mays?:jbhmm: heard that guy would've been an atg but life got in the way.

I think its fair to say steward is the greatest trainer of all time. he actually worked with wilder/fury at a camp and predicted they would be the next dominant champs after klitschko.

legendary prophetic shyt.:wow:

See that's the problem... You're rather still complaining about Duva tried to block it rather than e happy about that she COULDN'T so we will get Barrera vs Beterbiev possibly on Thurman vs Garcia uc

cant wait till all this promoter/manager dumb political bullshyt stop fukkin up the sport.

You can wait forever then... :yeshrug:

I don't think that there was ever a time where good boxing fight were on EVERY week. Like... chill already, we have LSC vs Fampton II, Francisco Vargas vs Berchelt, Mikey vs Zlaticanin... all next Saturday and we just had DeGale vs Jack last Saturday. Boxing fans who expect good fights every single week are delusional... :manny: You won't get good matchups every week from basically nothing not just from boxing....

and people wonder why we always talk about the old days of boxing ....cause this some ole bullshyt that we dealing with now.

I'm not wondering cause nostalgia is always strong and everything looks better in retrospective. I believe that boxing politics are even more complicated nd fukked up now than in the "old days" but those days are over and it's time to get over it plus I doN't believe that everything was smooth back then either, boxig was always corrupted sport.

start back stacking these cards like don king, fans need to stop being stans and start putting pressure on all these hos(boxers.promoters/managers Idgaf really) that really are ducking. unless they tryna build a big money fight but still fighting b comp at least..

Mikey vs Zlaticanin
Frampton vs LSC II
Jack vs Degale
Davis vs Pedraza
Lemieux vs Stevens
Golovkin vs Jacobs
Thurman vs Garcia
Beterbiev vs Barrera
Wlad vs Joshua
Canelo vs Chavez
Rigo vs Flores


other high possibility fights:

Spence vs Brook
Wilder vs Parker
Stevenson vs Smith
Ward vs Kovalev II
Verdejo vs Flanagan
Usyk vs Gassiev
Loma vs Jezreel


Only the January - May 6th period. All except 3 are/were title fights, 5 unification fights. If that's not good enough for you then idk what you're used to and what would be sufficient...
Plus here are fights what we don't know about but will happen during this time


Many current boxing fans act like average looking guys whose standards are too high and would only like to date supermodels but since that will never come they just constantly complaining instead of lowering their standards a little. :yeshrug:

and pressure? What pressure? All you do is complaining, they don't give a fukk.
Where are the petitions, where is the organized pressure toward promoters and networks? All I see is complaining and no actions. No community pressure, nothing... Cause boxing fans are rather busy slandering each other and starting race wars (not here though).

Either do something or don't. If you wanna revolt then revolt and not just complain... Cause constant crying in its own is just tiring and getting annoying aside of it's being pointless. Critics about the sport are legit you don't have to nod to everything but CONSTANT negativity is stupid. Like when someone only can recognize the minor bad even in the good...

anybody that fukk up a good fight this year gonna get it.....fukk everybody n anybody who don't agree.:demonic:

Agree with this regardless but this is't what I was talking about

You didn't even seem to be someone who's always crying so I doN't even understand why you wrote this reply

Its uncanny. I heard that Tommy Hearns didn't have much power before Manny trained him. Either he masterfully changes his punching mechanics and defied the whole notion of ''punchers are born'' either way he developed possibly the greatest right straight in welterweight history under Steward. Adonis Stevenson trained under Steward before his death and I kinda see shades of Hearns in him. I think Manny saw talent in Klitschko and harnessed that straight that Klitschko had and it was sniper-like.

Man imagine he worked extensively with Wilder. One of the criticism of Wilder is his sloppy technique yet he has nukes in his hands. And from what I've seen Wilder has been improving in his fights.
