I mean this guy here....Originally Posted by Lyle
What we have here is one of two things.....
First, he probably a "couch potato boxing fan" that claims to know everything about the sport because, he has been watching it for twenty years....
Or second, he's a former amateur fighter that probably fought a few fights here or there and wishes he went pro, but didnt....
One thing Lyle, you goto the history of boxing and look at guys that SHOULD NOT have won title, but ended up doing so.....
Buster Douglas
Hasim Rahman(LEwis Fight)
Carlos Baldomir(hope I spelled that right, also, I am a new huge fan of this guy)
Wlad Klitschko(They had him considered as finished in the sport, but he revived himself)
James Braddock(the most unlikely guy to ever win a HW title)
What I am trying to teach you here is not to look at the obvious, look deeper into the sport and the possibiities of what can go wrong....
Klitschko has been know to make mistakes....like now, he is a telegraph fighter...1-2, move, 1-2, move....Its something that fighters will catch up on...The fact that Brock has only about half the experience, is the only real thing you have looked at...You talk about some tough fights Brock has had, well I remember quite well about some of the tough fights Wlad has had.
You need to look at Boxing as a whole, look at it from different angles. Alot of you out there see a one dimensional range when it comes to the sport and thats why we get alot of these statements about who "got robbed!!" and "how did that happen?". Like the recent Toney fight, yeah, like I said...I had it close, but, Toney has aq problem of talkin alot of shit lately, plus the fact that he looks like shit as a fighter...If he really wanted to be a Champ, why wouldnt he take the time to show it in the gym, get into shape and come in with a fighting chance...I loved the fact that Peter couldnt put him out. It only proves my point about Peter..He is one dimensional and cant finish a fight when he has the opportunity knocking down his door...
Look from the eyes of a cornerman, which btw is the hardest job of them all, and think of what youre going to tell this fighter in the corner when the round is over....Then listen to his corner when they allow for it and see how close or maybe even how far off from what they are thinking of. I love doing that, because you learn how people see different things and at different angles.
If we all seen the same thing, we wouldnt need but one judge in a fight. Hell in the amateurs, they use five scoring judges. Also, in the Amateurs, its alot harder to score than it is in the pros...
Lyle, all you have to understand is this, alot of people see fights from different angles than you do, I see it from 35 years of being around, involved and presently working in the sport. I like people like you, I love your opinions...What I dont like is the way you try to belittle people with statements. I only respond with harshness when harshness is used. What you think is annoying is only because you didnt get the point 5 posts ago and I am trying to get into your head of what I am saying, from my point of view.
Good Luck Lyle,
Coach
