Mexico City is 2000 miles from Tijuana
Didn't realize the distance was that great.

Physically it is those aggressive grinders who are strong and throw a lot, but don't have the power to take you out quick.

Yeah the sustained beatings over the course of several rounds are definitely the worst thing for your health.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑04 Feb 2020, 15:47 Physically it is those aggressive grinders who are strong and throw a lot, but don't have the power to take you out quick.

Even though it was very late in his career, Ali losing to Leon Spinks was down right embarrassing.

Re: Who are the worst guys to lose to in boxing ever?
It makes sense to me that a prolonged beating (without a ko) would be worse for you compared to a quick ko but is this the case? Any neuroscientists here?gilgamesh wrote: ↑04 Feb 2020, 19:02Yeah the sustained beatings over the course of several rounds are definitely the worst thing for your health.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑04 Feb 2020, 15:47 Physically it is those aggressive grinders who are strong and throw a lot, but don't have the power to take you out quick.

WTF is wrong with losing to Mickey Ward? He was an excellent fighterWinter king wrote: ↑04 Feb 2020, 03:35 Losing to someone like Ali or Fury doesnt usually mean a life rethinking beating but to Micky Ward its probably pretty bad. So who do you guys think are the worst guys to lose to?

I tthink he means more stylistically, like you will take a gruelling beating from Ward but are more likely to just be jabbed and moved by the others

Eric Crumble is generally regarded as the worst. https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/5316
He did manage one win, but its not on his boxrec record. Think he is like 1-40 with a no contest and all losses by KO and never made the 3rd round.

You need confirmation? Guys dying or suffering life altering injuries isn't convincing enough for ya?
Leavander Johnson, Magomedov, Adonis Stevenson, Gerald McClellan, Benny Paret
It was almost never the result of a quick KO early in the fight.

Patrick Day, Max Dadashev, Oscar Diaz, Z Gorres, the guy in Argentina last year, the guy Kov killed, Kim duk koo, Frida Wallberg, Mike Towell. There was a friend of Stevekrazy who went into a coma after losing an 8 round decision the other week too.
Pretty much all the deaths or major injuries I can think of were these beatdown type of fights that go rounds or see the guy take lots of shots rather than just getting wiped out quickly with a few shots

I would give a thumbs up for supplying more evidence as to my point, but it doesn't seem appropriate given the subject we're discussing.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑06 Feb 2020, 12:10 Patrick Day, Max Dadashev, Oscar Diaz, Z Gorres, the guy in Argentina last year, the guy Kov killed, Kim duk koo, Frida Wallberg, Mike Towell.

So I'll just say. Yes, you are correct.

Re: Who are the worst guys to lose to in boxing ever?
Yeah I meant that. I mean even in sparring when you lose to a jab and move guy you dont feel like a car hit you but if you fight some brutal in fighter or puncher and even if you win and they only have few moments to shine it still sucks more.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑06 Feb 2020, 09:29 I tthink he means more stylistically, like you will take a gruelling beating from Ward but are more likely to just be jabbed and moved by the others

Re: Who are the worst guys to lose to in boxing ever?
Or just look like trash against anyone is enough really. Even worse when it is a nobody who is also limited.
Getting beat up in your prime is one thing and getting smashed in the end of the road is another.
