What are POL thoughts on boxing?
Yes, it is useful for self defence, but grown men bashing each other for money is entertainment?
If it was animals fighting it would be a criminal act.
A great way to get brain damage.

You sissy boy cucks
Nice, but gloves shouldn't be used. Gloves weaken the punch.

Ole Klemetsen was Norway's best boxing man. I love to watch it time to time. In my young years Mike Tyson was my big hero.
>>74644062

This beautiful man took the title from Patterson.
If you aren't planning on sipping whiskey, chain smoking, and watching boxing this long weekend; I don't know what to tell you friend. I bet you got no race action either? I got 500$ down and I'm not even gonna be at the track. You're a loser if you don't like what I like

the whole culture associated with mma is cringe though. hopefully it will grow into something more respectable. also boxers earn a fuck load more than mma fighters, and probably have less serious brain injuries too.

Fuck off kid
I always wanted to take on boxing, im a pretty big guy (4u) and i do a lot of cardio and lifting, would have probably been good at it.
Too bad i have a cap on my front tooth that cost me a lot of shekels. It would probably come right off with a single punch to the mouth.
Tfw will never box.

Judo is extremely popular here, not sure why. We have won several olympic gold medals in judo and probably nothing else. Personally hugging with other men doesn't seem that fun to me

Boxing is better than many other "martial arts" just becasue you actually hit oneanother and dont just do make-believe throws and wierd locks all day.
Obviously it's not the best in a RL combat situation, but if you've never taken a few blows your oh so usefull asiatic jump moves skills may still end up beeing useless.
>>74644589
They originally implemented them so that the fights would last longer.

>but grown men bashing each other for money is entertainment?
Don't watch it for entertainment then.
I do like boxing because it keeps me fit and it gives me simple tools to defend myself.
Boxing was a god-tier sport until shit-tier nignogs got involved, flailing away like baboons.
A battle between two well-trained and disciplined boxers is a thing of beauty. Need to lose the gloves, though, it promotes brain injury and nullifies the importance of technique and strategy.
>>74643990
brain damage + it's a shitskin favorite.
>>74643990
I'm a fan of boxing, it's a patricians sport
It requires a certain amount of intelligence to appreciate and understand.

Do gloves really promote brain injury?
Been kickboxing for a bit over 10 years as a hobby. Keeps me pretty fit and kicking people is fun.
>>74648557
Gloves don't really protect your opponent's head, just your hands which leads to you punching harder than you would without glove, since you wouldn't want to break your hand, therefore doing more damage to the brain.
>>74648557
>Do gloves really promote brain injury?
Not necessarily. Not everyone needs gloves and wraps to hit hard enough to cause brain damage without breaking their hand or wrists and unarmed strikes add up very quickly even if they don't have finishing power. Besides if we can make more advancements in regenerative medicine it may not matter much in a few decades anyways.
>>74647414
>I don't know shit about boxing
I don't like niggers much myself, but denying their skill in the ring is pretty absurd. Although a lot of the showmanship they've brought to the sport is negative, I like that even assholes like mayweather are standing up to the kikes and demanding a fair share.
>>74643990
Go suck a dick.
>>74648557
Yes, they do. They made it possible for blows to the head to be delivered with far more force, without actually causing a knockout (or fight-ending injury) or broken hands/wrists/fingers.
The result was that the brain gets shaken about far more without experiencing a fight-ending concussion, and the aggregate coup-contrecoup injuries are much more debilitating. It also opened the sides of the head up to be targeted, as very few people would target that area with a bare hand.
>>74649200
I wasn't indicting all black fighters. Ali, Foreman, Mayweather, and numerous others are respectable in their ability, power, and commitment to the sport. It's the "up and coming" thugger-sluggers that are the shit-tier participants I can't stand to watch.
>>74648557
Yes, you get brain damage from the brain hitting your skull. With gloves you can hit harder without breaking your hands. Boxers break their hands all the time in street fights because they just hit so incredibly hard.
>inb4 they don't know how to use the right technique because they are used to using gloves
Yes, it is true in a way but it but with correct technique in this case means that you don't unleash like boxers do.
Martial arts is great but if you go to a boxing gym two or three times per week where they spar many rounds at 50-60% force, you will get brain damage. You can learn self defence without fucking up your brain.
>>74648544
Never heard of it mate.
>>74649579
Like who? I can literally only think of Broner who meets your description.
Ward is a skilled boxer with a clean-cut personality. Crawford too.
>>74649200
Actually let me elaborate a little more...
What I'm seeing in many modern black fighters is that they have been taught a little about the stance and the way to deliver jabs and crosses, but as soon as they land a solid punch, they start flailing away, indicating that they're very undisciplined and unable to comprehend the strategy of what they --did-- do right. A proper boxer would feign being stunned and destroy them as soon as they opened up.
For me, it's like watching someone make the first three proper steps to a waltz and then starting to twerk. I grew up watching Leonard, Foreman, Ali, Spinks, and some of the truly great boxers, was impressed by Tyson's strength, but hated his "style" and I still love watching films from the "golden era."
>>74649886
It's about some loser that takes up boxing to beat up the guy that cucked him.
