Boxing / Re: jacobs vs quillin

how wrong was I?

wow wtf?

 :wowthatwasnutswtf:

+1
wtf, I am going to watch that again, daniel caught him badly, I did say that if he found the opportunity he would knock him out, but damn
jacobs was vicious after smelling fear and danger from quillin and was on him, which after quillin did not respond not even once except hold and the punch that knocked quillin dizzy, wow.

I was soo wrong in it going 12 rounds but there was that feeling that there was a possiblity for jacobs to knock him out but at the time of the fight, i saw quillin was big and was thinking there aint no way jacobs is going to knock this guy out. but ... just speechless.

 :o

ya, still shocked at that first round ko.

quillin showed less boxing IQ.. he was very hurt and instead decided to keep trying to trade punches. He didn't clinch or cover up too well. It would have been interesting to see what would happen if he survived round 1, because Jacobs went all out trying to kill him. Jacobs looked fine though, he was in great shape.

Boxing / Re: Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Manny Pacquiao - May 2, 2015

ya mayweather is so good on the ropes. loved some of the stuff he did in round 6, including his counter uppercut and his taunting on the ropes. it was hard for pac to let his hands go, mayweather does that to you. you can see pac hesitating. If pac wanted to beat pbf he'd have to not care about getting ko'd and put serious pressure on pbf.. kind of like maidana did in maidana v pbf 1, but pac has more hand speed and better accuracy so he could have eventually inflicted some damage. If you have a style like pac's, you just can't be too cautious vs pbf because he'll make it his fight and pick you apart.

nice highlight vid with the slow mos.

"the secret to running: not running"

(lagat's time off)

http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10000872396390444032404578006274010745406

"Many elite runners cover more than 100 miles per week. Not Lagat. This past year, he said, he maxed out at about 65 miles. For him, training is about intensity. Volume is overrated."

Will Bernard Lagat Live Forever?

http://www.newyorker.com/news/sporting-scene/will-bernard-lagat-live-forever

"What explains his longevity? One obvious explanation is that he doesn’t train very hard, at least in the way that “hard” is defined by serious runners. Lagat takes a day off every week, and he takes five weeks off every fall. At his peak, he runs about sixty-five miles a week. When he talks about his training, he sounds relaxed. Cam Levins, who came in third on Saturday night, recently ran a hundred and ninety miles in a week. Lagat does run his workouts hard, and he has perfect form"

I struggled to sleep last night because of my hamstring. I think I've actually torn it instead of just tweaked it. I iced it last night and there's no bruising but I can't walk properly or bend over so it's fucked. All I can do now is focus on my diet. I do love running but I"m becoming disillusioned with it. This is the 3rd hamstring tear in 4 years that I've had now. I'm thinking of playing social basketball now instead because this is just mentally and physically fucking me.

fuck.... ;/

you said it in one of your previous posts, got to listen to your body man.. right now rest up, don't mess with it. hopefully it's not as bad as you think it is.

when you're healthy again (in the near future), pin your recent post about ego/listening to your body and use it to help keep you in check. the most important thing in this hobby of ours is staying healthy. We MUST keep that as our #1 priority. Once you're healthy again (and you will be), don't let yourself make this mistake again. If we get hurt in an actual competitive event, it makes more sense; but not in training. We all fall victims to this (overdoing it in training). I know I have several times. It's always on my mind, i'm always trying to stay healthy. It's kind of like putting our hands on a stove but instead of it feeling hot/burning us, it feels great and then burns us.

I partially tore a hamstring tendon at the insertion loong ago.. around 2009. That really sucked but eventually it healed and I could go 100% on it. I imagine you feel like you tore yours at the muscle belly?
