id say silva has some of the best hands in the mma IMO but there are only a few mma guys like silva worthy of even stepping into the ring. id like to see him against a hopkins, dawson. RJJ yea it is like apples and oranges. Boxers just cant get into the octagon. there would have to be a stand-up only or Hands only type of match to even the playing field ala James Toney and Randy Coutour.
MMA would be cooler without rules, IMO. I'd love to see those beer guzzling juice heads actually break each other's limbs and kill each other. Pinning an opponent against the fence for 30 minutes reminds me of my jerk older brother pinning me against the wall when i was a kid. i'd rather watch two girls roll around on the ground in a speedo than 2 sweaty guys grabbing each other's crotch with cauliflower ear jacked up on juice. lol
@lighterbuds I'd like to see u get in the cage with one of those "juiceheads". Boxing is cool but its boxing and thats it its a lil bit different when u have to worry about kicks, throws, submissions. If you go to just about any mma gym they have boxing, kick boxing, muay thai, wrestling, and bjj. Your only making yourself look ignorant by calling them beer guzzling juiceheads.
@amestris6565 Taking nothing away from your opinion, but I think it's also that Silva is "tall". He's one of those fighters who are aren't naturally bulky enough to take up heavier weight divisions, so he has to keep to a lighter category. It's similar to that of Paul Williams, for example.
Anderson apparently wants Roy Jones JR in a boxing match when he retires from MMA. After seeing this, he will probably put a beating on Roy. Dude is straight up nasty!! Still wanna see Chale take his belt!
@Mr261194 Considering this is a pro match the guy is a good boxer. Anderson does okay against good boxers cuz he is himself a good boxer. But in a boxing match against a World class boxer...
@chungmoomonkey dude just because its a pro match dosent mean the guy hes fighting is good anderson would get ktfo by a decent boxer or just embaressed
Silva looked like shit in this fight lol. Honestly even though Roy Jones Jr. is a shell of his former self he'd KO Silva within 4 rounds if he tried to.
@XxHooksxX Silva looked great in this fight what are you taking about? It's true Silva probably wouldn't last against a former elite boxer but atleast Silva would make four rounds. If Roy stepped in the UFC Silva would kick jones head off in the first round or choke him out.
@XxHooksxX yea brah!?! and anderson would tool RJJ in an MMA fight. They're from 2 different sports, of course one of the best boxers of all time would beat Anderson in boxing. Are you really that dense?
is it just me or does Silva always seem like he is on the attack.. does anyone ever actually try to punch and hurt this guy or does everyone already come in mentally beaten like Forest Griffin did... I really would love to see GSP vs Silva... Even would like to see Sonnen vs Silva 2... I want to see someone actually TRYING to hurt him, not afraid of what he can do (even tho he can do a lot)... Its all mental and most of his opponents come in already beaten. IMHO

@BASABASA4747 No, Even the RJJ that showed up in the Antonio Tarver fight could still put it on Silva with ease trust me, I haven't seen Anderson fight a MMA fighter with at least some decent Boxing skills throughout his MMA career so it would be hard to tell if he could even compete in the same level with an old Roy Jones
@rezwanborja perhaps, we just have to wait and see. silva against roy jones' prime would be silly, because jones would beat his ass. silva is just as good at evading as roy jones, his footwork is his greatest advantage and now that jones got old, they should be on the same level in boxing terms offcourse. I mean nobody can say for sure, I'm just taking facts and trying to predict the outcome, but one thing is sure I bet it will be a very technical and exciting match and fun to watch.

@Martinez5474 I see what you're saying but the argument isn't about what sport is better, it's about who is a better fighter and in my opinion it's MMA fighters because they are complete fighters.
@cpaignboxingIts 1) Boxing can leave you permanently brain damaged. Unlike MMA, once you've been knocked down, u recover, get back up, get knocked down, get back up, and so on. It can leave you with parkinson's syndrome not disease because it is directly from taking too many head shots like Muhammad Ali and Freddie Roach. 2)For every fighter making a million + bucks, there are 1000's just getting by. 3) Boxing such a one dimensional sport, you stand up and you cant use your legs, elbows, etc.
@TyGould18 1) MMA can also cause brain damage. 2) For every fighter making a million O wait i forgot MMA fighters are some of the lowest paid athletes in the world (if you really consider them athletes. 3) Almost all of your good fighters were wrestlers in college. 4) Creates Jacks of All trades yet masters of none. 5) Is really weird with all the man on man humping 6) Most MMA fights go to ground which is boring and not to mention number 5 HAHA
@cpaignboxing Man on Man humping????? Boring fights because they grapple???? You are a waste of my time. Enjoy you sport fade away, and enjoy it while you still can bud.
@TyGould18 So your telling me you like watching the grappling? Your not disappointed when a stand up war goes to the ground? Everybody wants to see two guys standing trading blows. MMA fans cant admit it but everyone knows its true.
@cpaignboxing Ummm well duh. Nothing better than a good ole submission or some ground and pound. If you don't appreciate the grappling aspect of the sport then you are watching the wrong sport. I like it all man, hence MIX martial arts.
@TyGould18 LOL well i guess your one of the few. So how about you go ahead and name some of these awesome mma fights that were fought primarily on the ground?
@TyGould18 boxing rakes in more money than MMA on PPV. You can lie to yourself if you want though. MMA will NEVER take over boxing because they are like apples & oranges. Is MLB taking over the NFL or vice versa? NO.
@lighterbuds Yeah I agree that they are like apples and oranges. However, boxing will fade away along with its generation. MMA is more appealing to the younger generation hands down. Get a hand full of teens and ask them if they watch MMA or boxing, more than likely the vast majority will say MMA. Boxing and MMA will always co-exist, but it will become more like the MLB and Cricket, rather than the MLB and NFL, if you know what I mean.
@TyGould18 you failed to mention MMA is full of juice heads.faber,mma's star is a tiny juiced up kid.3) on your list of things that are dumb about boxing is the lamest one you listed.You think trying to stay on your feet is a dumb thing? Trying not being knocked down and stayig on your feet is the ultimate sport.mma fighers were mostly guys that couldn't box, period.i like MMA,but don't make it out to be such a classy sport.boxing is the class sport.mma is for juice head wrestlers,period.
you can atack the hips of a person aka ther legs while in boxing it focuses on the head. but nontheless all the fighting sports are dangerous if u cant handel them sins the responsibilety of ur actions lies in the battle fild.
im not a big fighting sport enthousiast (sorry for my spelling) but to me it seems like you guys try to make the other sport to look less violent then the other. look, the games has ther own rules and strategys. its like peoppel say. if ur in the game u have to handel the game. but ye i might aggre wuth u on the boxing side. boxers have an easyer time geting brain damage becous the focus is on the gut and the head, wich gives u less alternetivs forvariated damage for exampel in kick boxing u can
Anderson Silva a incontestablement un joli style, mais l'opposition était sans trop de risques pour lui. Cependant, il a été touché... A voir face à un boxeur d'un autre niveau !
Hahahhahahhaha, he tried showing off his footwork than knock smacked in the face, good thing he made up for it by throwing those combinations. He's only a Good boxer but not quite there, but that doesn't stop him from being a great mma fighter, probably a legendary fighter in a couple decades.
You guys dont kno wtf ur talking about be can hold his own against top guys if he were to deadicate himself to just that. Im a boxer myself i would kno
@hMMmmpify thats not what i mean in a actual fight in a real fight u can use anything kicks, knees anything goes mma fighters would destroy boxers in that aspect in a real fight not boxing fight
@soberenyia ur dumb thats what said that u can use anything did u not read my comment and yes mma useseverything u would use in a real fight boxing is just one dimensional in a real fight if randy couture vs a boxer he would take them down and destroy them because all boxers know is boxing if anderson silva fought any boxer anderson would win because he muay tha and kickboxing which is better en boxing in a real fight boxers dont know how to throw kicks
@TheUfctapout i think your a kid or you havnt been in the other side of the town. your comment makes you stupid. by the looks of it you are. btw ask anyone what happens in a street fight coz obviously you havnt seen one much more if uve been in one. all i can see on you is a MMA fighter wannabe. If you still dont believe me. pick up a fight outside you'll see what i mean stupid poser
@soberenyia lol ur the one who replied saying in a real fight you can use anything when i clearly just put that in my comment below before u replied ur the one making urself sound stupid im not a kid im 19 and i havent been in much fights other then kickboxing fights and ju jitsu tournaments its because i dont pick fights i cant say the same for u also all i was saying is boxing is one dimentional. mma is everything combined in dangerous situations or fights mma wins all the time because its
@soberenyia different aspects not just one if a boxer gets taken down which happens alot in real fights just to let u know that someone who knows mma will have the advantage
Really? How many MMA fighters worry about neurological problems on the level that Boxers do?
I mean for fucks sake, a boxer knows how to hit. The striking in MMA is absolutely horrible, nobody in mma today can even come close to throwing a hook or uppercut the way Tyson did. The amount of punishment a boxer takes on his brain is disgusting,George Foreman has 10 children, and each of his five sons is named George: George Jr., George III, George IV, George V, and George VI.
He has two daughters, Freeda George and Georgetta. The guy even fucking named his grill George Foreman. You try taking that many fucking hits to the head and remember anything but your own fucking name, I'd be impressed. MMA doesn't even grasp the level of physical and mental punishment a boxer takes.
@FootToTheThroat yea thats because they wear huge ass gloves i understand that and they get hit way more when u have small gloves like in mma more chance of getting knocked out so you dont get hit as much but getting knockedout isnt good for u either especially if you get knocked out alot but there are other bad injuries life term injuries. lol of course boxers know how to hit because thats all they do because its boxing mma is everything if you just have boxing in mma ur going to get destroyed
Big gloves vs. small gloves? It's doesn't matter the size of the glove. The same amount of force is being exhibited whether you are being hit by a boxing glove or an MMA glove. That is FACT. And what do you mean life term? Do you understand the effects of Neurological damage? I've been training in MMA and boxing for a few years now. I fight with some pretty good professional athletes at Team Curran. The punishment of getting hit in the head and knocked out repeatedly is brutal.
@FootToTheThroat yea i know but ask all mma fighter they always say anything can happen when you wear small gloves and its true yea i know that boxers suffer from life affects to but same with mma fighter because they use there whole body in training and in the fight like for example if you dont throw a kick right or if you get kicked in the knee by accident your knee could pop or when your wrestling you could mess up ur legs and they wont be the same after that. mma fighter dont take as much
@TheUfctapout I can tell that you are a fanboy, your account name gives me all the reason to assume as much. MMA is much safer and does not put anywhere near as much wear and tear on the body as boxing. Neither of you know what you are talking about. You also sound as though you are just some 13 year old middle school kid who wants his friends to think he's cool by wearing a UFC or Tap Out tee. Actually get out there and learn about MMA before you embarass yourself.
@rpgamer94 lol im actually in kickboxing and ju jitsu so yea im not just a fan its the only thing i do and you sound like a fanyboy of boxing how is it more punishment to the body alll you use his your hands in boxing mma you use everything its more evolved and more skilled then boxing because you cant just have one style in mma you need to learn other styles. lol rpgamer stay out of a sport convo and go back to world of warcratft u fag
@TheUfctapout You are so ignorant. I have been training MMA for a little over 2 years now and for your information I am not a fan of boxing. Boxing takes a larger toll on fighters because they are constantly taking damage, whereas in MMA you have grappling option if you are taking too much damage. Only 2 people have died in a sanctioned mma event. In boxing, dozens have died from trauma. You can sit here and make pointless accusations about me, but you will still be just a little UFC boy.
@rpgamer94 then dont make accusations about me when u dont even know me quit starting shit over the internet. yes boxers do take alot of damage but they also have 12 rounds there is alot of bad injuries in mma as well especially in ju jitsu you can get a broken bones easily. trust me ive been in kickboxing for four years now its worst then boxing you take way more damage plus kicks have way more force then punches do.
@TheUfctapout I'm not starting anything, I'm just correcting you. Also, boxing seldom ever reaches 12 rounds because of how brutal it is. ANOTHER thing, I've been seeing that you think one form of striking is better than the other. NO, each style has its perks, but in all reality, it comes down to the individual utilizing his skill set. You don't have to tell me anything about injuries ok, I have been doing MMA long enough to know all of what you're saying.
@rpgamer94 lol what are u talking about u started saying i dont know shit about mma when thats all i do is mma dont just reply on youtube and be a total dick i have my opinions u have ur own i dont even see how this whole thing started. my first comment was totally different and then foottothethroat started something random all i said was both sports have injuries you dont know what one is worst. i know it doesnt always go 12 rounds but still mma is usually 3 rounds unless a title fight but it s
@rpgamer94 still goes longer then mma does both sports are brutal and if u read my above comments im not the one who was picking for one style all i said my first comment that mma fighters would have a advantage in a real fight over boxers because mma is the new evolved way of fighting
@FootToTheThroat hits to the head that does affect the nervous system but boxers dont suffer from back injuries or leg injuries that end your career or stop you from walking again oh and by the way how did this even start lol i dont get whjat you were replying to this had nothing to do with the subject oh and i find it pretty funny u have to make a new account and start replying on all my stuff foottotheface is your other account
@FootToTheThroat boxers also fought like 7 times a year or 6 times a year mma fighters some dont even fight 2 times a year because some get hurt or the opponent gets hurt during training and they have to schedule a new fighter to face him also boxing could last 12rounds mma is only 5 at most also getting kicked in that head is worst then punched especially since leg is way more force especially if your getting hit by anderson or shogun both sports have bad injuries. dont know y you broughtit up?
@FootToTheThroat you need to be a all around fighter for mma look what happened to toney also i wouldnt say mma stand up is bad i know most fighter dont use the jab and thats important but thier is different styles of striking in mma boxing is just one aspect
Yeah, you need to be a well rounded fighter but ask any fighter worth their weight and they will tell you that striking in mma is piss poor. You're right about one thing. Most fighters don't establish the jab, or any technical punch for that matter. Just shitty over hands, looping punches, and disgusting footwork. You have no idea what you're talkin' about son.
@FootToTheThroat yea i do what are u talking about i agree with u on the hands striking but its because thats all boxers do so of course there going to be better but mma has karate and taekwondo and muay thai difeferent striking that are superior and there are some mma fighter with great stand up
First off this is my only account... It's the name of a lamb of god song... anyways, You keep making the same point over again. The reason why anything can happen in MMA isn't because of smaller gloves it's because of all the factors involved. Boxing is one dimensional. A better boxer always wins, in MMA a better striker might not win against a better wrestler, etc. etc. and vice versa... look I'm not going to argue with you over something you are clearly not understanding.
@johnny4463435 no, he lost to the guy that had a record of 32-21. He most certainly does not have the best hands ever, though he is a phenomenal MMA striker.
It's true, save for a few fancy stories people have telling us it happened, theres never been any hard evidence.
However, there are so very many fight videos and pictures that have been lost that it's actually very difficult to catalog a fighter's career with pictures. What's more the fight was in an obscure location in Brazil.
I'll post a link on your comment box cos it won't let me do it here.
i respect the shit out of anderson in mma, but he has no business in boxing... i mean, he obviously knows a little something about boxing, but that's just not his area of expertise..
Joe Rogan: What Anderson needs to do is kick him in the legs! He isn't worried about his Takedown defense or anything. He doesn't want to strike in Anderson Silva.
Mike Goldberg: ... That would be a great idea, Joe. But, there is one flaw in Anderson silva's plan!
yeah that was definetly worth saying fuck you over. Real tough guy over the internet aren't you? It makes me sick how the anonymity of youtube allows little punks like you to spout off to people who would destroy them in person. If I saw you face to face you would never talk to me that way.
With that said....Stylisticly he is very similar to Roy Jones. Hes just as good of an athlete...but you wouldn't know anything about that would you?
He's got huge reach advantage over this guy. I think this was an exhibition match if anything.
BUT!!! he did very fucking well. Martial artists know how to keep the pressure on ALL the time. never letting up and always looking for the finish. because that is how it goes down in the street. problem is, if it doesnt work in the ring, then they get more tired then the boxer who is cautious.
@jaiharman1 LOLOLOLOL he fucking sux fighting some loser half his size and throwing slow ass punches...if that shit was against someone his height and a decent record he would be K.O. in 2 rounds...Ever seen Tyson..Pacman, MArquez......Chavez, Holyfield, fucks sake laying on the ground isn't fighting....Ali...guys that fight round to round
i know man. None of them have an ass, not even the black one lol.. Shes ugly as hell, but I assumed that she would at least have a nice ass to make up for it. I guess not.. Idk why shes even hired.
Who the fuck cares of 2005 Silva lost a boxing match. It was early in his fighting career when he still had a lot to learn. OBVIOUSLY he's a completely different beast since then.
He moves like Muhammad Ali..

@TyGould18 boxing rakes in more money than MMA on PPV. You can lie to yourself if you want though. MMA will NEVER take over boxing because they are like apples & oranges. Is MLB taking over the NFL or vice versa? NO.
lighterbuds 1 month ago
@lighterbuds Yeah I agree that they are like apples and oranges. However, boxing will fade away along with its generation. MMA is more appealing to the younger generation hands down. Get a hand full of teens and ask them if they watch MMA or boxing, more than likely the vast majority will say MMA. Boxing and MMA will always co-exist, but it will become more like the MLB and Cricket, rather than the MLB and NFL, if you know what I mean.

@TyGould18 you failed to mention MMA is full of juice heads.faber,mma's star is a tiny juiced up kid.3) on your list of things that are dumb about boxing is the lamest one you listed.You think trying to stay on your feet is a dumb thing? Trying not being knocked down and stayig on your feet is the ultimate sport.mma fighers were mostly guys that couldn't box, period.i like MMA,but don't make it out to be such a classy sport.boxing is the class sport.mma is for juice head wrestlers,period.

Really? How many MMA fighters worry about neurological problems on the level that Boxers do?
I mean for fucks sake, a boxer knows how to hit. The striking in MMA is absolutely horrible, nobody in mma today can even come close to throwing a hook or uppercut the way Tyson did. The amount of punishment a boxer takes on his brain is disgusting,George Foreman has 10 children, and each of his five sons is named George: George Jr., George III, George IV, George V, and George VI.

He has two daughters, Freeda George and Georgetta. The guy even fucking named his grill George Foreman. You try taking that many fucking hits to the head and remember anything but your own fucking name, I'd be impressed. MMA doesn't even grasp the level of physical and mental punishment a boxer takes.
FootToTheThroat 7 months ago
@FootToTheThroat yea thats because they wear huge ass gloves i understand that and they get hit way more when u have small gloves like in mma more chance of getting knocked out so you dont get hit as much but getting knockedout isnt good for u either especially if you get knocked out alot but there are other bad injuries life term injuries. lol of course boxers know how to hit because thats all they do because its boxing mma is everything if you just have boxing in mma ur going to get destroyed
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@TheUfctapout
Big gloves vs. small gloves? It's doesn't matter the size of the glove. The same amount of force is being exhibited whether you are being hit by a boxing glove or an MMA glove. That is FACT. And what do you mean life term? Do you understand the effects of Neurological damage? I've been training in MMA and boxing for a few years now. I fight with some pretty good professional athletes at Team Curran. The punishment of getting hit in the head and knocked out repeatedly is brutal.
FootToTheThroat 7 months ago
@FootToTheThroat yea i know but ask all mma fighter they always say anything can happen when you wear small gloves and its true yea i know that boxers suffer from life affects to but same with mma fighter because they use there whole body in training and in the fight like for example if you dont throw a kick right or if you get kicked in the knee by accident your knee could pop or when your wrestling you could mess up ur legs and they wont be the same after that. mma fighter dont take as much
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@TheUfctapout I can tell that you are a fanboy, your account name gives me all the reason to assume as much. MMA is much safer and does not put anywhere near as much wear and tear on the body as boxing. Neither of you know what you are talking about. You also sound as though you are just some 13 year old middle school kid who wants his friends to think he's cool by wearing a UFC or Tap Out tee. Actually get out there and learn about MMA before you embarass yourself.

@rpgamer94 lol im actually in kickboxing and ju jitsu so yea im not just a fan its the only thing i do and you sound like a fanyboy of boxing how is it more punishment to the body alll you use his your hands in boxing mma you use everything its more evolved and more skilled then boxing because you cant just have one style in mma you need to learn other styles. lol rpgamer stay out of a sport convo and go back to world of warcratft u fag
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@TheUfctapout You are so ignorant. I have been training MMA for a little over 2 years now and for your information I am not a fan of boxing. Boxing takes a larger toll on fighters because they are constantly taking damage, whereas in MMA you have grappling option if you are taking too much damage. Only 2 people have died in a sanctioned mma event. In boxing, dozens have died from trauma. You can sit here and make pointless accusations about me, but you will still be just a little UFC boy.
rpgamer94 7 months ago
@rpgamer94 then dont make accusations about me when u dont even know me quit starting shit over the internet. yes boxers do take alot of damage but they also have 12 rounds there is alot of bad injuries in mma as well especially in ju jitsu you can get a broken bones easily. trust me ive been in kickboxing for four years now its worst then boxing you take way more damage plus kicks have way more force then punches do.
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@TheUfctapout I'm not starting anything, I'm just correcting you. Also, boxing seldom ever reaches 12 rounds because of how brutal it is. ANOTHER thing, I've been seeing that you think one form of striking is better than the other. NO, each style has its perks, but in all reality, it comes down to the individual utilizing his skill set. You don't have to tell me anything about injuries ok, I have been doing MMA long enough to know all of what you're saying.
rpgamer94 7 months ago
@rpgamer94 lol what are u talking about u started saying i dont know shit about mma when thats all i do is mma dont just reply on youtube and be a total dick i have my opinions u have ur own i dont even see how this whole thing started. my first comment was totally different and then foottothethroat started something random all i said was both sports have injuries you dont know what one is worst. i know it doesnt always go 12 rounds but still mma is usually 3 rounds unless a title fight but it s
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@rpgamer94 still goes longer then mma does both sports are brutal and if u read my above comments im not the one who was picking for one style all i said my first comment that mma fighters would have a advantage in a real fight over boxers because mma is the new evolved way of fighting

@FootToTheThroat hits to the head that does affect the nervous system but boxers dont suffer from back injuries or leg injuries that end your career or stop you from walking again oh and by the way how did this even start lol i dont get whjat you were replying to this had nothing to do with the subject oh and i find it pretty funny u have to make a new account and start replying on all my stuff foottotheface is your other account
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@FootToTheThroat boxers also fought like 7 times a year or 6 times a year mma fighters some dont even fight 2 times a year because some get hurt or the opponent gets hurt during training and they have to schedule a new fighter to face him also boxing could last 12rounds mma is only 5 at most also getting kicked in that head is worst then punched especially since leg is way more force especially if your getting hit by anderson or shogun both sports have bad injuries. dont know y you broughtit up?
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@FootToTheThroat you need to be a all around fighter for mma look what happened to toney also i wouldnt say mma stand up is bad i know most fighter dont use the jab and thats important but thier is different styles of striking in mma boxing is just one aspect
TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@TheUfctapout
Yeah, you need to be a well rounded fighter but ask any fighter worth their weight and they will tell you that striking in mma is piss poor. You're right about one thing. Most fighters don't establish the jab, or any technical punch for that matter. Just shitty over hands, looping punches, and disgusting footwork. You have no idea what you're talkin' about son.
FootToTheThroat 7 months ago
@FootToTheThroat yea i do what are u talking about i agree with u on the hands striking but its because thats all boxers do so of course there going to be better but mma has karate and taekwondo and muay thai difeferent striking that are superior and there are some mma fighter with great stand up

TheUfctapout 7 months ago
@TheUfctapout
First off this is my only account... It's the name of a lamb of god song... anyways, You keep making the same point over again. The reason why anything can happen in MMA isn't because of smaller gloves it's because of all the factors involved. Boxing is one dimensional. A better boxer always wins, in MMA a better striker might not win against a better wrestler, etc. etc. and vice versa... look I'm not going to argue with you over something you are clearly not understanding.
FootToTheThroat 7 months ago
@FootToTheThroat It's easier to knock someone out with boxing gloves on bro. More force and momentum because of the weight and size of the gloves.

It's true, save for a few fancy stories people have telling us it happened, theres never been any hard evidence.
However, there are so very many fight videos and pictures that have been lost that it's actually very difficult to catalog a fighter's career with pictures. What's more the fight was in an obscure location in Brazil.
I'll post a link on your comment box cos it won't let me do it here.

He's got huge reach advantage over this guy. I think this was an exhibition match if anything.
BUT!!! he did very fucking well. Martial artists know how to keep the pressure on ALL the time. never letting up and always looking for the finish. because that is how it goes down in the street. problem is, if it doesnt work in the ring, then they get more tired then the boxer who is cautious.
