how to know if you are speaking to a true boxing fan

[masterdirector]

I don't feel misplaced, I feel like the other person is misplaced.

Like I feel everyone except me is misplaced about this Castillo vs. Corrales fight. It is NOT a big fight. My God. It is about as significant as Golota vs. Brewster.

Most fights I care about, generally everyone on the boards would know about. Any fight I care about, 99.9% of people I know in my everyday life haven't heard of either fighter ie. Pac vs. Morales, Judah vs. Spinks, Hopkins' 20th defense against Eastman, etc.

Corrales-Castillo is not a "big" fight.....but it is a fantastic matchup.

There's a lot of questions going into the fight.....& the potential for some serious action is there.

You have boxing's hardest puncher attempting to beat the guy who may have the sport's best chin.

If you think there's "no skill" going on between Corrales & Castillo...it is YOU who doesn't know as much about boxing as you think.
These two are far too successful to have gotten by on just brute strength & balls alone.
There are things being done in there by both that separate them from the herd.

or if they only know heavy, middle, light and featherweights and think that they are the only divisions in boxing.... Then you have to watch fights with them and explain that someome is a welterweight and end up going through all the divisions one by one

from the rear

this is actually one of the big issues with the fight night video games, because the straight right is way underpowered while there is some fictional right hook that is supposedly a powerpunch. If someone says right hook i think they're probably talking about a wild, roundhouse over the top punch. Definitely not as strong or effective as the straight though. I think the shot exists though.

i think it would be called a looping right.

I'm a real boxing fan, but I don't enjoy watching two scrubs go at it...
and no I'm not calling Castillo a scrub..

I dont know why he thinks Castillo or Corrales have no skills.He must be on another level than us cause he thinks the Marquez Pac fight should of ended in the first. Even though before the fight the rules say no 3 kd rule and after Marquez beat the count 3 times. I guess everyone has their own unbaised opinion about things but that is what makes this sport so great. That is what brings out the passion.
