Boxers lose fights mainly for lack of punching

I have been watching boxing now for 49 years. I cannot count the fights that I have watched. It is my conclusion after 49 years of watching boxing that boxers mainly lose fights for lack of punching. The infinite number of fights that I have seen we're boxes just have their hands held in front of them and they don't let them go has 95% of the time always been their downfall. Lack of punching. That has to be the main reason why boxers lose. Boxers who throw five punches per round or 10 punches per round or 15 punches per round. Why did they bother going into the sport of boxing? They should have stuck with ping pong or tennis.

I propose a new rule for the sport of boxing. I am always ahead of my time with this stuff. You people will be talking about this in about 5 years but I am talking about it today. The new rule is that if a boxer does not throw 40 punches per round he will lose one point for that round

Now some of you blokes and chaps will say well what about if it's a female boxer. Well then I will lower the punch count to 35 punches per round.

It's what I love Rocky Marciano so much he was out there throwing punches like it was the last day of planet Earth. The guy was out there throwing punches like a nuclear reactor. I really never saw him take a breath. Raining punches down his opponents 60 70 80 90 100 punches around round after round after round.

Now take a look at the Wladimir Klitschko Tyson Fury fight. I think Rocky Marciano had he been alive and in attendance that night after the third round would have gotten up went to get a cappuccino and maybe a little sfogliatelle or some cannolis and gone home early in pure disgust for what has happened to the sport

Both of those Nancy boys should have had their purses withheld

You want to see a heavyweight fight? You watch George Foreman vs Ron Lyle. That's a heavyweight fight

You watch Larry Holmes vs Ken Norton. That's a heavyweight fight

Took you 49 years to realize ??? You are a strange dude...

Damn, Brock was making a serious run at Miles' soliloquy record, and this guy goes and messes it up.

Try using your fingers to see how many fights you've watched in the past few years.

You're one of the geezers on here that are "boxing lovers" that don't watch boxing. You make the dopes that think boxing is an American sport look hardcore. ;D

The part I find most interesting is the idea women should be allowed to throw less punches. From a physiological perspective that seems backwards. Women have a higher ratio of slow twitch muscle to fast twitch muscle. This is a cardiovascular advantage.

Yeah, but they fucking punch like Girls! ;)

Punches are punches. I am still 49-0 Tito. That guy did keep Miles' record in tact however.
