How to fight like Ali - Thanks to Lloydie
« on: March 11, 2007, 09:19:28 AM »
Here's a link I lifted from K.U.
It was posted by our very own Lloydie. Thanks for this Lloydie, I found it absolutely brilliant.

Enjoy !

Cryfach oedd ei ebill ef a'i ddur,
Chwyddodd gyfoeth gwr yr aur a'r faenol,
O'i enillion prin a'i amal gur.

This is the fight mentioned in the article.  I remember Gizmo saying that this was Ali at his best.  Fantastic display of ringcraft.

Hypothetical Question

RESPECT for Will Smith and everything he did........ Dedication and sacrifice and real hard work.

Ossss

But..
if he turned up one night... and we really "went" for him..

How would he fare  ?

Well, he's been well trained in the "sweet Science" by one of the best trainers on a one-to-one basis, he's tall, athletic and is in very good shape, also he has been trained *hard* in how to take a punch/blow.  He would naturally revert to his boxing training and be very quick and combination orientated in his kumite.  A good sweep would probably work well, but I'd try to avoid mixing punches with him at distance.  Close in might be interesting, though. 

All in all, I reckon he'd be a handfull  :shock:

Key question - would you be wearing boxing gloves (no not on your feet !  )  ?

Personally I would sweep him and go for a Mae ashi mawashi geri..

I liked him before..but now after Shari and Mrs Moley's commebts.. I'm going for him!

Good Q Jimmy.
There would be no way I'd be getting into the gloves with this fellow.  His whole experience is glove based, I'd like him to be underconfident about throwing the hard punch.

I'd get Moley to say some thing like "Hi Will, before you fight Lloydie would you and Lloydie care to break these boards for our Charity?"   :twisted:
Then when he suffered the boxer's fracture http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxer's_fracture I'd try to kick sh%t out of him, whilst shouting "There's a crazed robot behind you!!"

Personally, I would think about all those years the 'fresh prince of bell end' was shown on 6.00 pm TV instead of Star Trek. The resulting murderous rage would ensure my victory.. nerdy wretch or not..
