FIGHTERS FROM BROCKTON LIKE THIS GUY TOO EH?MASSASCHUSTUS.THEY KNOW HOW TO WIN DON'T THEY?
marvelous marvin hagler and rocky Marciano.
and both knew when to stay retired too.
both. hagler was offered millions to fight hearns and leonard in rematches but he turned down the millions.
and stayed retired.
also rocky was offered two million dollars during the first year Floyd Patterson was champ, to fight Patterson for the title.
a hefty sum at that time.
yet he too turned it down.
three cheers to fighters from Brockton massetuhchuseus. for knowing when to stay retired. despite the almighty dollar. in this life....
..
JUST ON THE COMPUTER WATCHING A FEW BOXING VIDEOS..
AND
I DON'T KNOW SHAUN.
YA KNOW I'VE WATCHED BOXING FOR A WHILE.
AND IN OBSERVING THE SPORT ALL THIS TIME ULTIMATELY, I THINK I' CAN FAIRLY SAY THIS.
OF ALL THE BOXERS THAT HAVE COME AND GONE
THEIR REALLY WAS NO ONE LIKE ROCKY MARCIANO.
ITS FUNNY THE WAY HE KEEPS COMING AT HIS OPPONENTS.
SMILING.
LIKE IN THIS PICTURE HERE.WHAT THE FUCK. THIS IS HIS KNOCK OUT PUNCH OF WALCOTT THAT WON HIM THE TITLE.
HES SMILING! WHILE THROWING IT. WHAT A COOL CUCUMBER!
.
.
I WONDER WHAT HIS OPPONENTS THOUGHT ABOUT THAT WHEN THEY SAWS IT TAKE PLACE?
FOR THE
RECORD,MOST OF HIS RING OPPONENTS ALSO HIT HIM WITH EVERYTHING BUT THE
KITCHEN SINK. AND WITH SOME ULTIMATELY REALLY HARD SHOTS.
YET HE KEEPS ON COMING AT THEM.
THEY SAID OF HIM WHILE HE WAS BOXING, THAT HE'D KEEP PUNCHING HIS OPPENENTS ARMS TOO.
UNTIL HIS OPPONENTS ARMS GOT TIRED.
AND SORE.
THEN, WHEN HIS OPPONENTS ARMS WE'RE TOO TIRED TO BE HELD UP BY THEM- HE'D THEN HIT HIS OPPONENTS FACES.
TIL HE KNOCKED EM OUT COLD.
ALL THE BOXING EXPERTS SAID HE'D NEVER BE CHAMPION WHILE HE WAS COMING THROUGH THE RANKINGS TOO.
INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH.
YET NOT ONLY DID HE DO THAT HE IS THE ONLY HEAVY WEIGHT TO RETIIRE UNDEFEATED.
MOST OF HIS OPPONENTS WE'RE ALL TALLER THEN HIM TOO.
YET HE ALWAYS FOUND A WAY TO WIN.
REGARDLESS.
AND KNOCK MOST OF EM OUT COLD.
