I think there are fight that is being sanction for 10 rounds, specially young prospects like 10 fights or less. But as far as the gloves goes, I remember Manny loving the Cleto gloves or it is Reyes gloves, both weight but the difference is that one is a puncher gloves and then the others to protect the hands or something like that.
So I guess the boxing organizations really done everything to protect the fighters in a brutal knockout, but inevitable that they really punch so hard that it can damage their opponent for good.
Well, certainly the gloves thing is something additional, for us it is more exciting that they have light gloves, because the speed of the blows is much greater, and if we could talk about great things that would make boxing bigger and with more options to have emotions in the fans, if they change the gloves to be lighter I think it would attract more people, but the bad thing is that blows like that, it's like you say, would cause permanent damage to the person, however I know what that is, because in part when it comes to boxing those gloves are somewhat softer that they don't hurt, in Hapkido the gloves are softer, and I know that sometimes they do do some damage.
Fewer rounds for the beginners until they earned enough experience and ready for 10 and 12 rounds.
I saw it before, they weigh the boxers boxing gloves. So they are in the same weight. Cleto Reyes was very popular before. Muhammad Ali, Tyson, Lewis, Pacquiao and many Mexicans wear it because it is harder. But I don't see anymore boxers using Cleto Reyes. Many boxers now want to use gloves that can protect their hands more. Mayweather too wears gloves that can add protection to his fragile hands. Rival is what I can see most often, I think it is a new brand. Loma uses that Rival gloves.
That might do but that won't guarantee safety, researchers are still digging what to do to reduce the chances of these incidents. There are some overhauls in the industry way back 1980 and established a 10-round fight but as years goes by, it was again back to a 12-round fight.
Cleto Reyes from Mexico are quite famous in the early 2000-2010 because they said that it was so comfortable that boxers tend to forgot that they are wearing gloves but now, boxers tend to choose Grant gloves and Everlast more than Cleto as it gives both protection from their knuckles and it also weigh lighter.
Well I'm not, but in my personal opinion, I've always liked the old school style, 12 rounds and I really don't care much about the gloves, for me the gloves are details that are used to protect , I don't think it's bad that they are to protect the faces of the boxers, there are still times when they get quite injured, I consider that a blow like the ones a boxer gives could harm anyone, even among themselves, it would be more bloody, and I think that so many bruises their faces would get as if they had a botox treatment that would turn out very badly, they would have to cut their faces to be able to see (something like what happened in the Rocky movies) I don't think it's the idea either.
Interesting fight between Paul and Silva, if I remember it right Silva is already pursuing his career into boxing after UFC, he have the fundamentals and with his speed I'm sure it will be tough for Paul to box him, though for sure there's a script here and we don't know what's the plan behind doors, just wanted to see talent and skills coming from Silva while watching and the rest will be part of the entertainment..
Well, we've been all suspicious when there's a match that involves the Paul brothers. We can't be sure what they're up to especially if the subject is all about being competitive.
After all, these are all matches that they've been making up and they're the ones making the contracts and agreements that would be favorable to them but beneficial to the chosen opponents like Silva and the others. The good thing here is that they're giving probably generous contracts to these fighters that they box.
It is like that, but there is a detail that not everyone knows very well, only those of us who have been in this sport, and that is that when you are in a sport like the UFC or in a sport like Hapkido or similar, it is always much easier in terms of to resistance, because to switch to boxing the change is very strong, first in technique and second that it is much more demanding, also when fighting against a boxer they are much faster and their blows are equivalent to as if they were hitting you with bricks, They have a lot of strength and if you're not very strong it's easy to get knocked out, that's why Silva may have hit you harder, however he knows what the sport is like and has a successful adoption, he may be very quick to learn .
Former boxing heavyweight champion Mike Tyson often stuns his fans with his out-of-the-blue one-liners. The veteran athlete was recently seen in a wheelchair in a frail condition. He was suffering from sciatica flare-up; a lower-back medical condition. Even though he recovered from his sickness, he went through a period where he had trouble walking and even used a walking stick to move around.
Mike Tyson might be suffering from the injury in the past, and might have caught up with him now that he's aging. Tyson is always training and engaging in tournaments inother to win titles and add to his collection. He did have better moment as champion, we know how he sustain crucial injury when he was still young as an ambitious fighter and he's fearless and ruthless in challenges. Mike is 56 years and seeing him in a wheelchair is totally devastating for a man like him, he's strong and he will definitely pass this terrific phase. The big question is, can he still get up strongly on his fit again?
Indeed Mike Tyson is so ambitious and made me remember one of his interviews where he was asked who will he want to fight in the history if he will be given a chance, guess what he answered? It's Achilles, the Greek Warrior who was the brain and hero of the Trojan war. That's how ambitious he is and I don't think of any fighter or boxer who is more fit to answer that question. Tyson in his era is really one of the greatest and I do think that nobody would argue with that. Now, I think it's time to hang up his dreams because he already done enough, it's time to think of his health first and to take that wheelchair out before anything else.
Well, but what happens is that Tyson has a very advanced sciatic nerve, it's strange because I know that the sciatic nerve has a lot of treatment, what I imagine is that he must have associated hernias and that's what keeps him in the wheelchair, etnonces when saying that he is very good at wanting to face a being like that, yes, I do not doubt it, I thought he was going to say that Ali, but he himself recognized that Ali was better than him in an interview that he was there, then Also, in spite of everything, I think he knows very well the respect he gave Ali at that time, that speaks very well of him, about that commander who says, that is already closer to his morbidity.
