Joshua vs. Klitschko: 90,000 Capacity Approved By London Mayor

[uptheirons!]

No confusion, I know exactly what I'm referring too. A limited sport with a shitty HW division and no real stars.

Nice Iron Maiden av though, Up The Irons. Killers is a great album. Dickinson > Di'Anno though.

Please tell me about all the stars of the ufc hw division? How many of them will sell out a 50k arena, let alone 90?

Dickinson is a better singer overall, but Di' Anno's voice is better for those first two albums. Those tracks never sound right when Bruce sings. Listen to Sanctuary live with Di' Anno.

Perhaps you're the one who needs to learn how to hold a conversation with people who may or may not agree with you, no?

I answered your idiotic question like a normal person without calling you any names... dipshit.

Moron, you're the fool who implied that boxing's not enjoyable despite the fact that it has millions of more fans that mma.

Boxing has been around in England since the 16th century...

Of course it is going to have more followers, not only in England, but across the globe. IT HAS BEEN AROUND FOREVER!!

Clearly you are a moron who doesn't comprehend basic facts and is rambling on and on about boxing in a UFC discussion forum.

Go away you...

 

[uptheirons!]

Dingus, the standing eight count is another reason why Boxing is a 'powderpuff' sport. You don't have the luxury of a 10 count in MMA. There's no time for gaining your composure. If you're knocked down, your opponent is going to follow you and try and finish you with ground strikes. You're a complete fool if you think the reverse is more extreme.

Sorry buttercup, but a standing 8 count means you're going to take more punishment. In mma you fall down and they stop it after the first few shots. In boxing you fall down, get up and take more punishment, and this can repeat several times before a fight ends.

If these "clown-size" gloves are such a joke then why have so many boxers sustained serious injuries? Have you even seen the impact comparison between small gloves and big ones? Have you tried hitting pads with mma glove and boxing gloves? Which one causes the bigger impact? Now obviously being a butt-pirate you won't know about these things, so I'm happy to educate your ignorant ass.

Moron, if you accept boxing has been around for so long and has so many fans then why are you so stupid as to claim it's not enjoyable? Do people watch it cause they like throwing away their money? Why is the most popular ufc fighter swinging off the nuts of a boxer? Are your parents related?

Because boxing is dead...

MMA/UFC is much more action packed and enjoyable.

When is the last time you saw a boxing card that was as entertaining as any great UFC card? I'll answer that for you... NEVER!

Just because a boxing event can garner a certain amount of fans in different parts of the world is not shocking or surprising.

Boxing has been around in London forever.

Lol

You may not be able to sell out a 90K arena in MMA, but it's been done before in Japan.

But speaking of history, when was the last time Boxing had an above 1 mil PPV buy? Oh right, two years ago and people were left feeling cheated, jipped, ripped off, as if Boxing was a dead sport not worth paying for anymore. You have Floyd Mayweather to thank for that, but now he's retired.

Dickinson is a better vocalist in every way. They wanted a vocalist with range, with virtuosity, with power. Di'Anno was good at what he did, but Iron Maiden would've been a foot note on the history of Metal if they stuck with him.

Agee to disagree on MMA/Boxing.

Respect for being a Maiden fan.

Lol

I'm glad you enjoyed my comment but answer the question.

What was the last boxing match that was as entertaining as a recent great UFC fight?

Dingus, the term 'boxing stoppage' exists for a reason. What you consider to be a KO in your sport would be a horrifically early stoppage in ours. MMA refs do not, as a rule, stop a fight the moment there's a sign of trouble. The exact opposite is true. Generally, a fighter either has to be incapacitated or unable to intelligently defend himself. Not the case in Boxing. Boxing refs have a much greater latitude in stopping fights. They'll often ignore the fact that a boxer is defending himself and stop the fight solely because they felt too much damage has been done.

They got rid of Di' Anno cause his drinking and drug habit were affecting his ability to tour and perform. Based on his voice and appearance now they made the right choice, but it's difficult to say how they would've turned out if he'd cleaned up and they'd kept him cause the first two albums were perfect so I'm sure he had more in him.

I never said it's not enjoyable you illiterate.

I said that the fighters and the fights that boxing promoters have been putting on these past many years are no where near as good as they once were.

So many people in boxing and outside of boxing agree that boxing has been on the decline for many years.

It might still sell out in London but what other sports are there to enjoy in London? Lol

The MMA scene there is no where near as big as it is currently in other parts of the world.

Answer my damn question...

What was the last great boxing match you watched?

Now ask that same question in MMA and there is a long ass list of matches people could use to reply to that question.

Sorry sweetheart, you're completely wrong, but then women usually are when it comes to this subject. MMA fans regularly complain about early stoppages you dump truck.

What other sports are there in London huh? The city with 14 professional football clubs and 13 for rugby? Mensa must be all over you.

There's a reason why we see fewer full knockouts in Boxing, numbskull, and it's not because Boxers have these magnificent chins. You see more injuries in your shitty sport primarily because of those clown sized gloves and the way Boxing works with its limited form of fighting and constant head strikes. I would bet that professional wrestlers have a higher rate of injury than Boxers. Does professional wrestling trump Boxing now?

 

[MysticGOD]

I think you're an insecure idiot, but that's a separate issue. Isn't the whole reason fools like ronda and Conner are so popular is because they appeal to casuals? Can you really be so stupid as to believe any kind of paying fan is a bad thing?

In my both posts, i never said casuals are a bad thing for the sport. I never said that paying for sports is a bad thing. Its your inner self who used a set of beliefs to determine/assume what i said. I just wanted to know your opinion, nothing else. And those people whom you addressed as fools are superstars. You aren't even 0.1% of them. So please, quit sherdog for a moment, go for a walk and get some sun.
EDIT: and about me being insecure, Yes i'm insecure. Its a survival thing. I let these energies flow through without labelling them using psychological terms. I use it as energy and never in my life it has bothered me. Everything in life is pure.

Why are you still here, don't you have gay porn to watch? I make a point of not arguing with women cause they're irrational, so my apologies for not realizing right away what your deal was.

You still haven't listed a boxing match that was amazing from the recent past.

You named soccer and rugby. Wow. Lol

You're just talking in circles.

Moron, you said the fight sold well cause there's nothing else going on in London, didn't you? Now that you've been made to look like a fool you're changing the subject LOL.

I think it's your mouth that's salty after last night's gangbang, buttercup.
