Re: P4P Pernell Whittaker vs Ray Leonard.
Its called commitment thats why a lot of punchers get punched. The non commited fighter plays safe and wont go for it and be brave and have it . Its mindset, the fighters who are commited put bums on seats thats what you pay your money to see Ill give you an example . Ali v Frazier 1 , I think it was the 8th rd when Ali trying to wind Frazier up said come on Joe try and hit me. Joe said to Ali no you try and hit me and Ali couldnt it was that rd that won Joe the fight because Ali lost confidence. As he said after we practice that all the time in the gym but people dont want to see me boxing like that so its very rare I get the chance. You get the trial horses in the game getting by on not getting hit and earning a living and making it hard for the prospects. All great fighters have great chins until they start getting hit. Great fighters dont get hit, when they do they stop being great, you saw it Saturday.
