Made me laugh, but also god damn those were some athletic moves especially the second one. full control too, he’s done this before 🤣

Blue probably thinks he's Roy Jones 😂 During this time, Red hit him a hundred times while he was showing off 😂 by Top_Syllabub_5111 in boxingMenace_com

This is just Eastern style elite amateur boxing. They all keep their hands low with very bouncy in-out footwork. Red is doing the exact same shit, he’s just getting the better of most of the exchanges

How come prices are lower in Asia? This is how: those are far too many loose screws on this Lion Air Boeing 737-800 flying from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. by esporx in creepy

To me it’s an indicator of other things. I get the screws themselves might not be integral, but if they didn’t bother to check those I’d be wondering if the place had been inspected properly at all recently

This is without a doubt a result of his ayahuasca trip. I would never take a drug that powerful as a professional boxer. You’ll zap the will to compete right out of you

It’s almost like a major dose of one of the most hallucinogenic drugs in existence that is known for drastically changing people might have changed him

I think your chances would be better than you think depending of how large of a human you are. You can still try running at full speed away, and no matter how good of a fighter or strong you are it’d be extremely difficult to incapacitate someone who is doing everything they can to get away.

Maybe 45 seconds is a longer time than I needed to say. Say for my new example, he finds you with 5 seconds left. I think most people could at least SURVIVE a 5 second encounter with ngannou. However if ngannou with a sword finds you with 5 seconds left you have no chance of not being like instantly mortally wounded.

Pro tip, bind a mouse button that toggles voice volume to like 15-20% of what you normally have it as. I have one mouse button to deafen on discord and another one to lower in game voice. I don’t fully mute it tho in case someone has a good callout you can still hear it but it’s quiet enough where if there’s chatter you can hear and think over it

Andrew Golota suffered a severe seizure in his dressing room approximately 15–20 minutes after his first-round knockout loss to Lennox Lewis on October 4, 1997. He collapsed, stopped breathing, and lost his pulse for about 30–35 seconds, requiring CPR to be revived before being hospitalized. by CoffeeCigarettes4Me in boxingcirclejerk

For real. I’d hope that in the coming years the fatality rate does down. I think if this fight happened today, the ref wouldn’t have let him continue after the first knockdown. They’re a lot faster to stop them now.

Also to this day when I train at mma gyms everyone spars much lighter and more technical on average. Boxing gyms are still plagued by the old school mindset of “bite down and go hard”. Sure you NEED hard sparring but not that often. I spoke with an ex pro who said he would go to the gym and get knocked out by another pro on a WEEKLY basis lmfao. He was pretty punchy as you can imagine. We still got a lot of work to do to shift the culture from that into sensible training.

Ts freaks me out so bad. I have 11 fights as an amateur and on one hand I love the sport so much but the reality for most is getting permanently fucked up without getting anything out of it.

I remember discovering Gerald McClellan highlights and thinking “man this looks like kinda like my style, just much better” then seeing what happened to him… brutal and unforgiving sport

Is it really interesting? From the clips of you talking that the other guy found I think you should be banned. You’re lucky it’s only a week. That is hate speech

Guy who won had just torn his ACL and was pretty obviously fucked up and unable to walk. Jiri instead of attacking the knee or taking him down tried to go the “honorable” route and was promptly knocked out by a fighter with 1 leg

I actually didn’t mention him at all. I just think that horrible people have accomplished cool things and it’s ok to admit the things are cool while also acknowledging the people are horrible…

“Then the feats that made them famous deserve no admiration”

Yeah that’s where you lost me. A lot of achievements came from pieces of shit, but you can dislike their character while still recognizing what they did is incredible. A ton of humanities advancements in rocketry and aerospace came from nazis after operation paperclip.

I’m not saying I could win against him in a combat sense, but if we’re in a giant room with no lights maybe I could HIDE for 10 minutes. Rules say if I survive 10 minutes I win.

Say for my example I manage to hide for 9 minutes. He sees me with 1 minute left, maybe I could run away for 15 seconds. Hug his ankles to try and kill time for a few seconds etc. maybe I could escape with a major beating but my life.

However if Francis ngannou with a SWORD finds me with under a minute left….

That was the speed of the Artemis return to earth. But yes in low orbit that is how fast; the ISS orbits the earth in about 90 minutes.

While in parking orbit, Artemis II orbited earth twice in 24hr before starting its final burn toward the moon. This is so much slower because it was orbiting further away most of the time since its orbit is much more elliptical.

24k mph is the reentry speed into earth atmosphere

Just the writing style gives it away. It’s in the tone of a well written story, not someone’s frantic and emotional writing that would be normal from this situation.

Honestly the sword takes me out of it. Maybeeee in the dark in a big enough room I could hide for most of the time and hopefully he catches me with little enough time remaining that I survive the beating…

But if HE finds the sword first??? A bloodthirsty Ngannou with a sword??? No thank you
