Lee v Saunders 'head to head'

[ross]

Im glad iv quoted this before you can edit it but you have just shown yourself to be totally clueless to amateur boxing. In amateur you will get matched evenly. Same weight with sameday weighins, similar amount of bouts and similar in age.

You would have no idea how to put a strategy in to practice if you have never competed. You dont even talk like you know a great deal about boxing. Others on here do.

Your unravelling now

Ha, well first off you never specified that you were talking about amateur boxing and neither were you referring to Primo mentioning amateur boxing, just boxing in general and IN GENERAL boxers especially early on are NOT evenly matched. It is up to trainers, managers, and athletic commissions to do the match making.

Yes in the amateurs if 1 fighter has 5 fights they typically won't let him fight someone in the same weight class with 20 or 30 fights. That is part of the reason why it was very difficult for me to find a bout as an amateur and yeah I was all signed up and had my USA boxing book and everything....nobody nearby who was able to fight because in my entire state, hell in my entire area of the country it's difficult to find a boxing gym let alone someone to fight who is the same size and same experience level....so I got frustrated with it and didn't bother with amateur bouts, I just sparred and that was fine, I toyed with the idea of turning pro, but the promoters here were willing to bring guys down from boxing rich communities and kill off the talent trying to grow from this area. You bring a guy from NYC, New Jersey, Philly, Las Vegas, Miami to my state to box....and well it's going to be very tough to have any kind of career when the promoters are sacrificing home talent to out of towners trying to get good crowds at the bouts. So why would I bother going that route?

OH IS IT Then you won't mind picking out the word "amateur" in there?

"Thats suspiciously excusy.

We had footballers, runners, cyclists, rugby players, martial artists, track and field athletes allsorts trying out boxing and they all actually boxed with varying degrees of success. They actually trued it out and gave it a go. They didnt assess from the sidelines that the sport they are currently in would instantly deem them unsuitable! what a load of shit! All those other sports people actually said the boxing training was harder than they expected and used to come up to benefit their other sports!

Boxing is one of those sports that unless you have a disability anyone is suitable for because you are always evenly matched! As long as you go amateur and not white collar. Also, by physical requirements, do you mean it would be physically more demanding and mentally more draining?"



.....hmmmmm I don't see it. Care to highlight where you said it ross? Or did you get a little confused....it's ok if you did though.

What the fuck is going on here

Can someone give me a quick summary of the last 2 or 3 pages, I thought this was about Lee v BJS

People are forgetting to ignore Ross when he's had to much sugar.

Basically, nobody may dare critique any fighter if they never had the balls to become one, is his argument, save your time.

Not critique. Deride!
