The Sweet Science: Boxing

Plant is straight clowning this dude. HAhaha,he's got Freeman afraid to throw his hands. Thank you Al Haymon! boxing is back in 2015!!!
 
Williams was throwing those punches like he was trying to knock his head clean off!!!! First round KO in the main event!! What more could you ask for from a card on a tuesday?


Hit him so hard he started skipping... looked a bit like how Foreman annihilated Joe Frazier




Now he's leaning over the ring, calling out Austin Trout (who's trying to announce). hahahahahhaha Trout said he'd fight anyone and shook his hand (crowd was chanting we want Trout) that was epic.

Sad news in the boxing world today - Roy Jones found a fight in Russia. It could potentially be for a belt too. I certainly won't be watching.

Dunno If y'all saw the story a few weeks back. He flew to Moscow for a face-to-face with Putin, who granted him Russian Citizenship.

Roy Jones jr is favorite boxer of all time
 
Roy Jones jr is favorite boxer of all time

Absolutely one of the best. When he started moving up in weight his greatness started to dilute, people forget that. In his prime at super-middleweight no one on this planet was gonna beat him, infact I don't think anyone could've even given him a decent fight.. Too much power and quickness, with both hands.

I'll always remember Antonio Tarver knocking him out and thru the ropes in the 2nd round after mercilessly **** talking him to get the fight.. hate it had to be him. I thought Tarver was gonna whoop his *** too, I remember that fight like it was yesterday...

Roy didn't just want to win, he wanted to make it look good, an that ultimately opened up holes in his defense. too much dropping his hands, getting caught unnecessary clean shots.. he could've protected himself better



Wouldn't recommend watching him fight anymore, I can almost guarantee you'll regret it. the last fight was really pathetic.. Holyfield status.

He's said he wants to help repair US/Russian relations, that should be an interesting storyline.
 
Damn..

Wladimir Klitschko has pulled out of his fight with Tyson Fury on 24 October because of a calf injury.
Ukrainian Klitschko, 39, was due to defend his WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles against Britain's Fury in Dusseldorf, Germany.
"It's a bit funny as I predicted this would happen!" tweeted Fury, along with a emoji of an old man.
Klitschko told Bild he was "incredibly sorry", adding in a video message that he was "working hard on rescheduling".
Fury, 27, had called Klitschko "boring" in the build-up to the fight and attended a news conference dressed as Batman.

I'm not surprised. Ufc screws their fighters over for the most part.

If I could be elite at any sport in the world I would choose golf. Make tons, don't have to train/work out very hard, and get to be paid for playing a sport that tons of people have to spend small fortunes of their own money to play
