What people with low boxing iqs say....

[Beanflicker]

Speaking of old fighters, I hate when people nuthug the old time fighters and say dumb shit like "Well everyone was tougher back then". Bullshit. There were tough guys and pussies back then, and there are tough guys and pussies back now.

This is true, for some reason all the old legends ALWAYS win, there is this mystical aura around them that makes them unbeatable..buncha bs if u ask me

for me people with high boxing iq are the top predictors or fight pickers in the world and they might bet a lot

[El Kabong]

He never fought anybody

A beat B so automatically A beats C

___________was invincible in his prime

If _______ got back with his original trainer he'd win again

[Althugz]

I dont think i've ever heard "he deserved to win" due to things outside of a fight. When i hear that it's usually due to what has happened in the fight.

I made a whole thread about it but when a fighter is considered boring because he "Hits and doesnt get hit" aka - boxing. This surely demonstrates the biggest lack of boxing IQ? lol I understand a fight being boring but not a fighter who dominates with superior skills

[Sleepwalker]

Fighters who are portrayed as villains lack heart and fold when an opponent (usually a fan favorite) brings a challenge to them.

Pure BS.

When people compare performances of common opponents between 2 fighters a prediction model . "Fighter A made Johnson quit, Fighter B had to go the distance to beat Johnson. Fighter A HAS to win"

"Oh I dont know how you can sit and watch two people beat themselves senseless."

I tell em its like trying to play chess while being beaten with a paddle.

[Ant Live]

"What just happen?"

[fairyrak]

i strongly agree with everything they have said, except ignoring (completely) the power of the skin structure

also low iq: when saying an x all time boxer will beat a y all time boxer based only in their level of fame in their era or ignoring styles and attributes or comparing wrong similarities. Very seen in many fans of boxers from x country or x personality

Generalities always drive my bat shit.

Fighter A has always been dirty....has never been hurt or down....has won nearly every round and dominated etc etc. Unless you've seen a guy from start to finish it's mostly group think.

"He has no heart" or "he just quit"......hate it with a passion.

You nailed it, bro...... group think. And BTW... those generalities also rub me the wrong way. They're mostly wrong and misinformed. Too easy to throw generalities around.
