Are you suggesting dancing cannot improve foot work?

Awww, my long ignored fan proving once again he's wrong every time he challenges me. Funny this kid is still butthurt because I told him GGG was a bigger draw than Kovalev. :lol:

Robinson was such a piss poor dancer that, despite his great name, fame, and personal appeal, he was soon back in Boxing... Acting didn't go better for him.

If someone thinks that for a boxer (especially mediocre boxer) dance training is good and improves his footwork better than actually a boxing training he is a troll or idiot

If someone thinks anyone would suggest a boxer dancing instead of training they belong in a straight jacket.

Not that I suggest it but Kostyra Tszyu and Joe Calzaghe both said dancing training was much harder than boxing training. Both were known for conditioning.

Why don't we just have everyone dance instead of actually practicing their technique in the boxing ring. Man, this forum is full of idiots. :doh:

I'm sure Victor Ortiz came back in top form after dance training on Dancing with the Stars. I could see all those improvements when he got stopped by Berto.

You put me on ignore. :OhYes:

I guess I win by default then. What bioatch-made poster would put someone on ignore if he was in the right? No, you put me on ignore because I always destroy your arguments. Thanks for telling me I'm on ignore. Now, I don't have to bother with a genetic retard that doesn't want to have to defend his position.

You cannot see how dancing would improve footwork, and somehow make the un-assisted jump from dancing improves footwork to don't train boxing only dance.

This forum wasn't full of idiots before you joined, that seemed to fill it right up.

Mexi-Box, you aren't what they would call a creative thinker. No thinking out of the box for you.

Holyfield said he benefited greatly from ballet. Professional wrestlers and football players have benefited tremendously from yoga. Concentration can be improved by deep breathing.

There's a whole interesting world out there Mexi-Box. :oo

I like him. Despite his physical appearance he has a great engine, is exciting to watch and has reasonable hand speed. Admittedly he has yet to pass a higher level test, but no matter the outcome of that, you can bet it will be entertaining.
He is and should be classed as a HW prospect

A faster HW would have countered the heck out of Filip, no defence, all offence. A 5 years past his prime Love is not a yardstick.

There aren't really any fast, counterpunching heavies at the moment. In fact, there is basically one really good heavyweight who is currently active. The rest are pretty meh. Hrgovic will be top ten as soon as he wants to be.
