Fans be damned... I just want my check and to get the hell outta here. I'll clinch, maul, grapple, or throw a punch per decade as I did against the Gypsy King.

2. Put your chin out there (a la Mayorga) to be hit like a birthday piñata, so I can show everyone how macho I am.



Well, Bob....... which will it be?? Is it Door # 1? Or Door # 2?



Pleeeease..... that's beneath you, isn't it? Reducing every issue to either pitch black or lily white? Shame on you.


What is the purpose of the sport of boxing TitoFan? Why is it called "The Sweet Science"? Even guys like Mike Tyson who were very aggressive in the ring always attempted to.....AVOID BEING HIT.

It doesn't matter what you look like when you win, the key is at the end of the fight you win, and therefore you look like a......WINNER....thank you for your participation in this debate


By comparing Wlad to Iron Mike you have just fallen flat on your face.

I'll indulge you. Mike attempted to AVOID BEING HIT while still managing to make a fight out of it. Not by clinching, not by mauling, not by having a deer in the headlights look whenever a flurry came at him.... but by being AGGRESSIVE HIMSELF, which by the way, is the REAL purpose of the sport.

I'll give you a short multiple choice quiz. The purpose of the sport of boxing is:

a) To hit the other guy.
b) To avoid getting hit.


You can only choose one answer.
What did you say?

WRONG. It's to hit the other guy. If you can do so while avoiding getting hit... all the more power to you. But if all you've done the entire fight is avoid getting hit..... guess what. YOU FUCKING LOST!!!

Besides, there's another sport more suited for that. It's called Dancing with the Stars.

It's amazing that you can sit there and.... with a straight face..... defend a guy who broke all kinds of world records for inactivity during his stinker of a fight versus the Gypsy King. But that's what being a blind fan does to a guy.

You're welcome.
