105lbs to 112, the smallest weight class.

weight is huge....these guys have to cut way way harder than a MMA guy
It is always an issue and very very draining on guys
the main problem in the sport is that some fuckers blow it off and accept the monetary penalty and the opponent is gettin paid well and accepts the fight anyway
even guys we respect(dude fighting next here) have done it...it is disrespectful and disgusting

The smallest weight classes like flyweight and straw weight are the biggest in places like Japan, Thailand, and Indonesia.

haha I'm Indonesian, so I can qualify for this…but those fuckers are fast it's just kind of funny that they are so short that they could get knocked out through the ring.

ok will check it, I saw a friend of mine post an epic fight between two Latino's where they just brawled, the more they got hit the more they returned a hit. Forgot which fight it was, it's a famous one

Or shit if he likes the Straws and Flys
I am a junkie for Asian Straws...shit there was one that was FOY not long ago...I am drunk and cant remember. If not FOY it was def right there

I love watching the small weight classes those guys fucking fight.
You can never find an English stream though, but it's all good since the Asian announcers go bonkers over everything.

It was Rafael's fight of the year if I recall. That year I thought Tyson Marquez v Luis Concepcion 1 was better.

Twink did you see Marquez v Concepcion 1? Great HD full fight on youtube. NOT to be missed. Plus its Mexican announcers going ape shit.
Son_of_Balrog

Showtime aired it a few months back. Was able to record in all its HD glory. Was one of the first HD fights they did.

what are your favourite knockouts? I want to see
Turkas

That fight is wow boxing is the best sport on earth.
After watching that check out Castillo-Corrales I. Those two fights, IMO, are the best two fights of all time.

see the thing is when I go see a fight, I'm interested in action as oppose to jostling and conservative approaches.
There is beauty in ground game, there is beauty in takedowns, there is beauty in speed but a lot of times guys get cocky or too conservative they get knocked out.

I'm interested in watching this!!

I think this KO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4En2NORwhzY has competition with Sergio's.
Skip to about 14 mins in.

The fact that Montiel got up from that KO punch is maybe the most amazing thing i've seen in this sport.

Twink, I think the striking in MMA has exponentially evolved in the last 3ish years. Seeing a ton of guys really develop quality jabs and body work now.

actually speaking of which, what are some great boxing comebacks? Guys that you thought were on the brink of getting KO or defeat and just go on some crazy rampage?

I am a purest when it comes to boxing. I enjoy a great tactical boxing match as much as a slug fest.

Castillo-Corrales 1, it will change your life.
Son_of_Balrog

Mike watch the Corrales / Castillo Youtube fight I posted. Basically the greatest comeback in the history of boxing.

I agree and it was the same year too I think.if Montiel didn't get up it was possibly better than the Williams one.
Turkas

I would argue the best in all of sports.

one thing about boxing is(unfortunately)....when a fight stinks....it fucking STINKS
whereas MMA has a ground/kick/....all kinda shit
boxers specialize in punching....so sometimes guys stink out the joint
