Manny Pacquiao Redefines Boxing

There was a time when people are in Rome to find entertainment in smrt.Gladijatori may not have liked the idea of killing each other, but the death of one means life for others. To live, one needed to kill. As soldiers tried to keep life's what thrilled audiences Coliseum.

Professional boxers may not like the idea of killing each other, but the killing of opponents is the only way you can be sure that he does not die at the hands of his opponents themselves. Sugar Ray Robinson, one more boxing fans consider the greatest boxer of all time, pound for pound, then 26, fought Jimmy Doyle in 1947. Move twice in the earlier rounds and fight for dear life, Robinson hit Doyle with a wicked left in the eighth round. It was Doyle's last ring performance,. He died in hospital hours later from Ohio, brain injury

Two months later, Robinson figured in two bouts of funds that were supposed to help the Doyle family, financially. Robinson To Be careful with your hands this time? But he was knocked out two opponents in the first round.

There is thus a radical redefinition of professional boxing when, after mugging Antonio Margarito for twelve rounds on November 13, 2010 in Arlington, Texas, Manny Pacquiao said. "Boxing is not about killing each other Boks is about entertainment. "probably not an argument about boxing is fun. But about boxing is less brutal and violent than it would be controversial.

is not that the mind killer in professional boxing as have the courage to take the victory without a firearm, while a score tied and no time left in regulation in basketball. In golf, it's like hitting a bogey, when all you need is a couple that won the championship. In other words, even though he won the fight can not be a problem, boxers who have no mind of a killer can not be as great as Robinson.

What do you think fans have to say about Manny Pacquiao's redefinition of boxing? Of course, people understand that the best way for fighters to protect themselves from harm is either maim or kill their opponents. That's what they want to see the boxing match-aggression by one and all efforts to defend life from drugih.Drama tug between life and death is what makes sports worth watching. This is what Jack Dempsey and Mike Tyson box-office hits. And this is what Robinson and now Pacquiao-darling of the press.

Thus, Pacquiao said boxing is not about killing each other as Gandhi told his people not to fight back, regardless of the pain and provocation they received from the British. Gandhi was given a tremendous amount of credibility because it filed the pain and humiliation of oneself. And Pacquiao seems credible, not only because of "Manny knows", given the way he almost deified in today's press, he could tell that just saw the burning bush on Mount Sinai, and people will be hard to disagree with him, but because people saw what he did in the Margarito fight. And, more talking, people could see what he has done in his 40 previous fights.

What Manny seemed to say that there is no need for boxers to hurt an opponent who, by all indications is in a position to hurt back. One May find it easier to understand, looking at his record.

Manny has 57 fight career. He won 52 of them (38 through stop), lost three and two matches ended in draws. Like almost all professional boxers who spend the first half of his career honing his skills and build their confidence (except probably Leon Spinks, who met and defeated Muhammad Ali to be his world heavyweight title in only 7 professional fights), Manny is the first 24 fights could be considered to be easy to fight for him, compared to the past 33 fights, which, besides being mostly title fights, involved opponents bigger than him at the age of 25 (at which point human males normally stop growing physically). We venture to assume that Manny is not found to be relatively easy to hurt his first 24 opponents, beating the "only" 14 out of 23 won (or KO rate of 61 percent ).

started to chase a world crown in its 25 fight against the Thai Chachai Sasakul for his WBC Flyweight belt. From this point on until his last fight against Margarito, he faced not only a future Hall of Fame in Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, Juan Manuel Marquez, as well as larger opponents in David Diaz, Oscar de la Hoya, Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto, Joshua Clottey and Margarito (most of whom are likely future Hall of Fame himself). Again, we venture to assume that Manny Pacquiao may find the threat to their own security in the past 33 fights (25-57), and went on to knock out 28 of 33 relatively tough opponents to win (or KO rate of 85 percent ).

against relatively easy opponents, Pacquiao holds his punches. Against a dangerous enemy, he becomes a murderer. A May also be noted that the struggling 5 (of their past 33 victories), who went the distance involved Oscar Larios, Barrera in the rematch, Marquez, Clottey and Margarito, in that order. Pacquiao master trainer Freddie Roach complained that Manny played to the crowd, the fight was held in the Philippines in the Larios fight. Las Vegas audience shouted, "Barre-run!" in the Barrera fight. Clottey does not want to mix it up. Margarito's heart but not the vision to be competitive. Thus, except for the Marquez fight, we could say that Manny did not see any need to hurt anyone of these otherwise difficult opponent. He concluded that there is no need to knock them out.

in the context of what the fight record indicates, we can say that the idea of ​​Manny Pacquiao boxing is not about killing one another may be in your mind from the day wearing boxing gloves. His record also shows an exception:. Everything goes in front of the clear and present danger
