That commentator annoys the fuck out of me by the way.

But how does it work though? There are so many different boxing leagues?

it's not really leagues, it's promotors and managers who put fights together

boxing is boxing. there are different titles and sanctioning bodies but no leagues.

he'll have to work his way up of course take a few 4 round fights then 6 or 8 then 10, just depends on how fast he progresses

But there are multiple world champions in the same weight division?

Oh my god! Wrestle Mania!!

But there are multiple world champions in the same weight division?

there can be. If he's a heavyweight there are basically the Klitschko brothers and that's it.

Now even if there are four champions, they can still fight eachother cuz the ultimate goal of boxing is to unify all the belts and become the undisputed champ of the world. That's one of the great things about boxing is it truly is an international sport and anyone can fight anyone (of course there is BS politics that can get in the way like mayweather vs pacquiao).

 

[iaoish]

Sounds interesting. I might start to watch more often, depending on Hari's results, lol.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

if he's successful it would be a breath of fresh air cuz the heavyweight division has been pretty boring the last few years it's basically just the klitchko brothers dominating everyone and that's it.

interesting to note that vitali klitschko was a kick boxer before going boxing

 

[iaoish]

So it seems they have some competition heading their way, hopefully.
Good kick boxers have do have a good hand game and already used to train different forms of combos.
I wonder if it would give him a little edge.

interesting to note that vitali klitschko was a kick boxer before going boxing

William van Roosmalen who is the father of Robin van Roosmalen who fought on the show earlier tonight actually knocked out Vitali in kickboxing.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

maybe that's why he went into boxing

must have been a good shot vitali has a real good chin, probably only hurt 2-3 times in his entire career

 

[2-0-Sixx]

what's the next big (or good) card coming up?

Gago Drago?? Dude better be a giant Soviet!

 

[B-Buzz]

lol he's a crazy little Armenian.

[video=youtube;qP74du3A8T8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qP74du3A8T8[/video]

 

[2-0-Sixx]

hmm, that's not acceptable! He should modify his name to be more armenian sounding and add the typical "-ian" at the end. Dragoian. Problem solved.

 

[B-Buzz]

well his name's Gagik Arutyunyan but the dutch changed it when he started becoming popular. Sergei's the only giant Russian I can think of.

Six have you seen Petrosyan fight yet? Think/figure you'd be a big fan of his. He's probably got the best boxing technique of any kickboxer, little guy's like an Italian Mayweather with hand bones made of paper mache

edit- oh wow I just realized that United Glory event's in Russia, with Sergei vs. Fight Shark. Straight up Rocky III shit. The American from Pennsylvania with heart going to Russia to fight the guy that has the most brutal KOs in fighting.

(Miller had to get heart surgery to be able to keep fighting)
