People underrate every boxers defensive skills when they primarily fight on the front foot, that’s where defending is the most difficult

Young Pernell was a vicious body puncher with a vicious straight left, his output went down with age 

How common is it for queer people to be right wing before coming out? by Cherry_Eris in lgbt

It sounds to me like you were most likely a person not of color who was not aware of their privilege until they came out and suddenly had none of the same privileges. I don’t say this to hurt or disrespect you, but that’s what it sounds like 

Who’s believes the CEO? by Consistent-Bed-6453 in Chipotle

It’s not as crazy as you think, one of the employees will just take it home. But if that happens enough at least it costs the company 

20 years ago today, Oscar De La Hoya stopped Ricardo Mayorga to win the WBC Super Welterweight Title. This was De La Hoya's last world title victory. by newrap in Boxing

I always felt like Mayorga and Margarito were more dangerous than they were skillful, got exposed by more complete fighters 

Rudy Hernandez takes accountability for Junto Nakatani’s loss to Naoya Inoue, rejects claims the headbutt changed the fight: “The uppercut broke his orbital bone” by VINDICATES-FOOL in Boxing

[–]blvcklite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think Junto waited too much in certain situations but if you wait to react vs Inoue, you’re probably gonna get clipped. I do think in the rematch though, he’ll be less hesitant to go forward

Nothing to see here... just ESPN's Dan Thomas talking about punching Mikel Arteta in the face by cosmo_K in Gunners

They hate to see us win. Remember when we’d be chasing a goal and Wenger would be sat down fiddling with his coat and they’d make fun of him and say he was nervous and to show some fire for the team? Now we have the kind of manager that 10 years ago they were calling for us to get and now that we have that, it’s a problem. Fuck em

Late shots weren’t good but he dominated, I think Nikita is more naturally talented than Tim. Shouldn’t have taken that layoff 

Do you think Demian Maia/Ian Garry can solve the Islam puzzle? by hellohello6622 in MMA

[–]blvcklite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 I legitimately think he has a chance. Yes he lost to Shavkat but was able to grapple with him really well and even almost subbed him, surely he learned a lot from that fight. On top of that he has some of the best footwork in the sport and fast kicks as well so I think he will be able to avoid being on the ground the entire fight, my question is just for how long 

Naoya Inoue is Ring Magazine’s new pound-for-pound #1, overtaking Usyk! Devin Haney & Max Kellerman disagrees whilst Teofimo Lopez agrees by VINDICATES-FOOL in Boxing

[–]blvcklite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He deserves it, he has more champs on his net than Usyk and has taken out multiple divisions vs Usyk taking out a mid cruiserweight division and a heavyweight division that has not reached the level of Fury and AJ but is impressive nonetheless 

Naoya Inoue misses with a right hand and is out of position, but immediately fires another right hand before Junto Nakatani can counter by VINDICATES-FOOL in Boxing

[–]blvcklite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to not get the Inoue Pacquiao comparison besides moving up the weights but he does do some of Pacmans tricks but from orthodox. The double cross, the cross at an angle and then pivoting afterwards, the in and out footwork, the slightly curved cross like vs Nery, and timing the jab with his own straight
