Any professional boxer in his prime (not some lump of shit the MMA drags out of retirement to hype their sport) would hurt any softcunt from the MMA. ANY one! Fucking joke of a sport. Im embarrased just watching it. Boxing deserves it because of extreme mismanagement, but it doesnt change reality.RaceBannon said:The NFL wants to survive because fans know more about how the sausage is made and they want to feel like they're watching a safe game. So the rules are changing.
Which may hurt the game anyway. Who knows?
Boxing fucks up the head. Its dying. But MMA is growing.
I'd still take the pay of a football player over the guys who die in coal mines or get black lung
Life is unsafe in general but we want to live forever here.
You won't. Spoiler alert
Everybody dies
You are a mother fucking retard. A professional MMA fighter will submit a pro boxer in the first round 9 time out of 10. What the fuck is a boxer going to do once they are taken down? Absolutely fucking nothing.
James Toney agrees.
In a Boxing match a boxer would obviously win, but a real life fight? Not even close. -
What is the boxer was also an MMA trained guy, but never competed in MMA, just boxing? Then who would win? Not so easy now, is it?CuntWaffle said:PostGameOrangeSlices said:puppylove_sugarsteel said:

has anyone else noticed how the pussification of football has coincided with the increase in PLSS poasts?

Dave is that you? You sound just like my son who's earliest games at Husky Stadium were during the Sixkiller era. I'll add that I've never liked the black-outs because such crap should be preserved for the Beavs and memories of when the pumpkin heads wore all black the last time they went to the Rose Bowl and were plungered by Michigan.ApostleofGrief said:The technology is tiresome in the game now. It detracts more than it adds. I mean: endless stoppages for "play is under review," when watching on TV computer generated crap on the field for first down (I know where five yards is from the line of scrimmage), piles of electronic crap in Huskie Stadium making noise and distracting visually. Also I think the fancy uniforms pussify the game. They look ridiculous most of the time (black out is OK but leave it at that).

Guys play full tackle football because it's just damn fun to play. Football is also a lot of hard work starting no later than high school and often sooner, but the hard work in practices, scrimmages, weight room, etc is also fun like no other game. Baseball which I loved as a kid and Basketball at which I wasn't good enough just don't have that. I can remember getting pumped just for football practice as early as junior high school.
Most football players who actually get to play more than riding the bench learn early to focus 100% on the game action. You can sometimes hear the crowd and your teammates on the sidelines, but if your lollygagging and looking for mom and dad or a cute cheerleader, the blindsides and slobberknocking coming from nowhere can really hurt and the mental errors that come mostly form lack of hard work and focus can get any but the most talented hotshots sidelined.
Football is a dangerous game (duh) and most athletes who get to play the game work hard to have the opportunity and won't risk injury by taking cheap shots at their opponents not throw away the hard work by getting sidelined due to dirty play. But stuff happens and I think a lot if not most of it results from the showboating that's too often allowed, starting in the NFL and by example moving down to college and high school levels. The highly paid NFL safety delivers the spectacular hit to not only punish the high speed wide receiver, but also to make the Sunday evening highlights played over and over in slow motion on ESPN. -
Disagree about football practice. I don't think there is anything worse than two a days. Football games under the lights were awesome, but practice sucks. It's cold, your gear is wet, it's hard. It's the price you pay, but it's easy for me to admit that I hated it.Tailgater said:Guys play full tackle football because it's just damn fun to play.

Agree on your disagree, practice sucks. My son on the other hands loves it. That worries me, more than what he does to the cats he catches.RoadDawg55 said:
