Comments Thread For: Magomed Abdusalamov and The Dark Side of Boxing

If you wanna hold someone responsible, look no farther than the fans. Dont the "fans" who clamor for a slugfest and brawling expect this to happen? What do those fans think will happen eventually? But hey get used to these type of things happening for a "fan friendly scrap" as they say. Isnt HBO responsible, because this is the style of fighting they want but NO to a skilled boxer such as Rigo, because Boxers realize hitting and not getting hit, wins matches and prolongs lives and standards of life. But everyone of you who always clamors for a slugfest this is what you guys wanted and still do so dont act like you care about him now when this is what you guys are asking other fighters to do?.

Wow. You ***hole. This is a serious discussion about what improvements can be made to minimise the inevitable risks that professional fighters face, and this is what you come up with.

Is telling Mago he shoulda fought more defensively more important than making sure there's always an ambulance, hospital check-up and adequate insurance available post fight in your opinion? f#ckwit.

He makes a good point to be fair.

Regarding the standing instead of sitting thing, I don't think that's something abnormal. It's supposed to take a lot of effort and energy to get up from the sitting position when you're the size of a heavyweight so sometimes they prefer to stand.
