Post by oogiebe »

The "must miss" of the year? Or a good fight to watch? Thoughts?

16 years ago I would of bet huge money that Guinn would of been a world champion.
Such a talented fighter. Boy he had no drive or ambition.
At 43 years old and being out of the sport for 2 years I see no way possible for him to win.
He does have a hell of a chin so I expect it to go the distance

Guinn is 43 years old and 26 months inactive. He's going to be a lot worse than he was in 2016, and he was a mere journeyman in 2016.

Dominick Guinn can't beat anybody that stays active in a fight basically.

He's got a Boxing disorder named after him which me and a friend came up with years ago. "DGS" = Dominick Guinn Syndrome

Dominick Guinn Syndrome is a guy that just kinda stands there all night, can usually take a punch, but basically doesn't do sh*t, and is guaranteed to lose a decision to anybody that throws more than a few punches each round.

Other famous sufferers of DGS would be Breidis "Hands in his Pockets" Prescott.

These are some of the more frustrating fighters in Boxing as they essentially show up just to be a body in the ring for you to throw shots at while they just kinda stand there until it's over and collect a check.

I'm sure there were guys with Dominick Guinn Syndrome kinda styles before Dominick Guinn, but he was the first fighter I ever saw fight like this upon becoming a fan so DGS it would remain for my life, and he's it's inventor :lol:
