Short or Long Trunks?

Post by handsofstone »

Ive always preferred the look of the short shorts of yesteryear, if I was a boxer( :KO: ) i'd make sure my stylist made my shorts old school, I think its the sight of morbidly obese heavyweights cuddling it out rocking a pair of 3 qtr lengthers that has scarred me, I always thought Ricky Hatton looked a bit daft in the extra long shorts, I thought his style and physique was crying out for a pair of 70s/80s style trunks, ive seen some incredible lengths of shorts over the recent years almost like pyjamas

IMO it looks embarrassing , does anyone prefer the longer trunks and think the old style is a bit homoerotic like footballer shorts or do you like me, would like to see a revival of the old school short trunks??

Lamont Peterson had old school shorts last night

Lennox Lewis's extra long shorts caused Oliver McCall to have a mental breakdown in the ring, so clearly long shorts are superior :yay:

I think it depends on the fighter, different guys suit different styles, it's weird.

Not sure who does his shorts might be Suzi Wong but Stephen Smith always has quality shorts designs as does Ant Crolla.

I've always favour the Jonny Nelson skirt option. Like a cross dressing Roman gladiator.

One of Honeyghan's cornermen is wearing a tie - clearly a man of impeccable standards
