QUOTE (MaxPayne @ Feb 2 2012, 01:34 PM) By definition, "Effective Aggression" should mean something along the lines of, "you throw a lot more punches than your opponent, but also end up OUTLANDING your opponent". You shouldn't get points to running after a guy throwing punches but catching nothing but thin air, because that just means the guy is defending perfectly. If anything, that's the definition of being outboxed. According to Compubox in that fight, Pacquiao outlanded Marquez, but we all know that Compubox is a general reflection of the tide of the fight and cannot be a truly accurate measure of punches landed. While it's conceivable that Pacquiao landed more overall punches, I want you to watch the fight again, with no volume, and really score round by round and most people will agree that Marquez won that fight. But once again, what the fuck is "Effective Aggression" as these fucks on HBO have defined it ? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. QUOTE (Seek @ Feb 2 2012, 02:18 PM) Yeah i'm sure the judges are trained to judge the marks on the fighters face during the fight. That's fuckin brilliant! If you don't mind me asking, what boxing commission do you work for? Only an official like you could have such superb knowledge. I'm truly honored (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drinks.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Thank you! |

Im picking bradley in this one(if it happens)... if bradley fights like he did against lamont peterson he'll win... Pacquiao is overrated, the only thing he does is flurry and load up with the left hand...if bradley can stay away from the left hand and the flurries he'll outbox pac easy!

I don't see Timmy getting a KO, but this could be interesting...
I'm interested in seeing how Tim holds up in the fight and wondering if he can follow a gameplan, if he can effectively move to the left I think it will confuse Pac (again) but he also has to stay inside and rough up the body...I personally think if Bradley can follow the blueprints that have been laid out he will be successful in making it a competitive fight... I don't think this fight will be pretty at all, but it should be fun to watch... What's sad is if Bradley can't get a KO he won't win, I see a controversial decision in our future...Pac faces JMM\Peterson winner in Nov and possibly Canelo vs Mayweather...Pac and May won't happen in 2012, most likely mid 2013 when the dinosaur is ready to cash Pac out |

I believe Bradley can carry out a gameplan, the guys head is huge for a reason, its full of confidence. His drive and heart is what I admire the most about him but I still don't think he has the tools and ability to beat manny.

QUOTE (daprofessor @ Feb 3 2012, 01:50 AM) bradley is an all around good fighter. he has very good defense....throws good punches. his only knock is that he doesn't have tremendous power but i don't think that's necessary to win fights. he knows how to fight. a lot of manny opponents knew how to fight, and what happened to them, it think it plays out like the cotto fight, but without any Kds |

QUOTE (mgrover @ Feb 3 2012, 05:14 AM) a lot of manny opponents knew how to fight, and what happened to them, it think it plays out like the cotto fight, but without any Kds a lot of manny opponents were weight drained. (dlh, hatton, cotto, clottey, margarito) a lot of manny opponents had trainer issues. (dlh, hatton, cotto, clottey, margarito) a lot of manny opponents were coming off of recent beatdowns. (hatton, cotto, margarito, shane) bradley doesn't fit into any of those categories. i'm sorry...i'm not drinking the pacquiao kool-aid. his blazing trail has been smoke and mirrors. when he faces opponents on equal terms...we get pac/jmm 1,2,3. he'll be facing bradley on equal terms. (i hope.) |
