    was able to fight with his hands down because he was one the most gifted athletes in the history of boxing. There is a reason to this day that they call him the greatest. Anyone comparing Frochs style to Ali should be arrested and beaten with many stripes until their train of thought has been corrected.
    The only person comparing their styles is you, you idiot.

    The point I made, as you would realise if you could read, is simply that you said that no one who fights with their hands low can possibly be any good. So logically, that means you must think that Ali wasn't any good.

    Ali didn't keep his hands low simply because he could get away with it - he did it because it gave him advantages. He could throw combinations that he couldn't have thrown if his hands had been kept high.

    Froch also keeps his hands low because it gives him advantages. The advantages it gives him are very different from the advantages it gave Ali, His style couldn't possibly be more different from Ali's, and he's never going to be a all time great, but that's completely besides the point. I was not comparing their styles or their quality as fighters, as you'd know if you had read my post properly. I was simply responding to an idiotic post in which you made a ridiculous blanket statement, and I called you on it.

      Before you call someone an idiot use spell check first then you'll realize how to spell realize with a "z" not "s" now that's an idiot. Secondly, if you could read.. *****.. Then you would see.. *****.. That what I said is that the first thing they teach you in boxing when throwing a jab is to bring it back to your chin to avoid a right hand counter.. *****.

        So you're a cultural imperialist as well! Realise is spelt with an s, not a z, in the UK, and in all other countries that don't use US spelling.

        And I was simply making the point that regardless of what they teach you, there are very good reasons why many fighters, including your favourite fighter, don't practice what you preach. And that your post was therefore hypocritical in the extreme.

          Ali was considered the greatest everywhere.. Including the UK so
          how do you like those cultural, imperialist cookies? Froch's style is weak, period.. Which is why he got dropped the first time he stepped in the ring with somebody with a name. Make sure you leave your mouth in the UK if you come to states talking that bull**** you might get your ass whupped. Or arse as you say.

              If you'd read my post properly you'd have realised that I said you're a cultural imperialist because you think that anyone who uses UK spelling can't spell. Again, you've demonstrated that you don't read posts properly.

                Taylor couldn't hurt him despite landing loads of clean power punches. He dropped him, but he wasn't even dazed. Whereas when he did the same to Pavlik, Pavlik could barely stand up.

                Wanna bet 20k on tonight's fight? If you're so sure about his style being weak, how about backing up your opinion with some points.
