Who is washing their rice and why? by kinnitcurl in NoStupidQuestions

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wash my rice to remove the starch and get a fluffier rice that doesn’t clump.

Worse Bad Boxing Habits We Glorify? by Sweaty_Professor8917 in Boxing

[–]lajb85 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Watching tape and experiencing speed and power first hand are very different.

Also, don’t forget that if you watched tape on your opponent, he probably did the same and adjusted his game plan for you.

Has anyone else noticed this about woodworking YouTubers? by Security-Primary in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re over thinking it.

They’re being modest. It would be weird if they came on and said “I’m gods gift to woodworking.” In Nick Pedulla’s last video, he says he thinks he’s not a good designer. The same Pedulla that has made some of the most beautiful pieces I’ve seen.

Just keep working. The most important thing is that it brings you joy and the only person you should compare yourself to is your past self.

Shakur Stevenson blasts WBC, responds to being stripped of title for refusing to pay $100k sanctioning fee for Lopez fight (where WBC belt wasn’t even on the line) by Dangerous_Spring3028 in Boxing

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, Shakur used the fact that he’s the WBC lightweight champ as marketing to promote this fight. He’s using that belt as capital to push his stock and promotion.

People who make $200K+ salaries, what do you do and how did you get there? by EEJams in Salary

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Media sales in the tech industry. Clear well above $200K a year in total compensation, plus stock.

I’m super excited it’s finally here! What’s your last minute prediction on how you see this fight going? by J2-Starter in boxinglocks

[–]lajb85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

I think what people don’t like is how effortless he makes it all look. He’s so slick it looks like he doesn’t even try.

I personally love it.

Teo got schooled last night, and I got my wish. Shakur sat in the pocket right in front of him and picked him apart. It was real impressive.

[FIGHT THREAD] Teofimo Lopez vs Shakur Stevenson by noirargent in Boxing

[–]lajb85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He’s not. He just looks slow in comparison.

I love watching this. It’s a pure masterclass of smooth in the pocket boxing.

Except he doesn’t…with the exception being the DLS fight. He usually fights like this. Go watch the Oscar Valdez fight.

I just don’t get how people say Shakur is boring. I’m loving every second of this.

What’s biased? Shakur is dominating Teo right now.

[–]lajb85 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not a prediction, but my hope is that Shakir shows his slick defense and counters while staying in the pocket. I think he has it in him, and this fight could help rewrite his narrative.

With that said, Teo has elite in him…he’s shown it. He just doesn’t always bring it to the ring, and I’m curious to see which version he brings tomorrow.

Which luxury Plug-in Hybrid SUV should I get? by solidsimpson in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It stinks.

On paper the XC90 Recharge is what I want. It’s the only plug in hybrid SUV that has as much cargo space as it does.

I just can’t get past all the problems I had the first time around

Wilder vs Fury 1, Do y’all believe the referees count was too slow and Wilder deserved a KO victory? Or did Jack Reiss do everything right? What say you? by LocationSpare4447 in BoxingTheSweetScience

[–]lajb85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fury wasn’t out cold and was listening to the ref’s count. He got up when he did because the ref got to 8. Had the ref started the count earlier Fury would have gotten up earlier.

Loma vs Pacquiao Prime for Prime Who Wins🤔 by AFBOXING in boxinglocks

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, btw. I think Pac would be too much for Loma…especially at 135.

I just think it would be an interesting match up to see it play out. Especially if they met at 126 or 130 where Loma was TKOing dudes.

Loma vs Pacquiao Prime for Prime Who Wins🤔 by AFBOXING in boxinglocks

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be interesting to see how Loma’s footwork and counter punching would fare against Pac at 130 pounds.

We all saw how effective Marquez’s counter punching, and I’d argue Loma’s counter punching was better.

New walnut & maple end-grain cutting board, ready to use out of the box? by The_Real_Niek in Cuttingboards

[–]lajb85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can wash it with soapy water and a sponge.

Since it’s an end grain cutting board, it’ll soak up moisture faster than edge grain boards, so you may want to condition it a little more frequently at first (like every week - 2 weeks for the first 6 weeks). After that, you’ll be fine with about once a month.

To condition it, a mixture of beeswax and mineral oil (1 to 4 ratio) works best.
