@@kristhovaldez8819 I think it was Eubanks' fault for being a sucker. He could get another hipnotist, a psychic, an exorcist or a witch doctor. But he and his team did nothing. It was a fair and square tactic by Collins.
@g3x Ryjones After the loss, he fought again and won the title. He has a net worth of $35 million. 37 professional fights with training maybe just too much toll on the body and BRAIN he felt that is enough. It isn't that much different than when we see an NFL player who retires early when they are still in their prime. When ex ufc Khabib retires so young and in his prime, we are all thinking "Why?!". Khabib retired after 29 fights vs Hamed 37 fights. Contact fighting and sports is quite different why people retire younger.
@@Bflo23 Naseem was Roy Jones level skill could have been Roy Jones level legacy but from what I gather he lost that hunger as he became more of an all star he stopped training as hard and was beat by arguably an all time great after of which knew he wasn’t as hungry anymore so without the hunger probably thought why keep fighting? Do you agree or you think he was just getting out of prime physically?
Naseem's strategy with the ring walk and making the opponents wait kinda reminds me of what Musashi was said to have done. Schedule a duel, then either make them wait for a long time, tiring them out mentally, or make them frustrated. Sometimes he wouldn't even show up and it would cause his opponents to become tilted.

I'm glad you mention the incompetance of judges in regards to stealing rounds- it shouldn't work so consistently but it does. I think it's one of the biggest issues in MMA at the moment, a late takedown and they give them the round.
Im fine with giving late takedowns a meaningful reward...a "late" takedown should be valuable in a real fight(because late takedowns wouldn't exist) so if were trying to be representative of a real fight giving it less value because of an arbitrary time limitation would not make sense. Since everyone knows takedowns are valuable even with 10 seconds left, it makes it so that takedowns retain their values regardless of the arbitrary rules that exist for reasons besides emulating a fight realistically. Also a late takedown is closer to a late knock down than it is a late flurry of punches.
@@DIVAD291 But that's the tactic- they've only gone for the takedown to steal the round. They may not have gone for it at all if there weren't rounds. How can a takedown be more like a knockdown than a flurry of punches- the FIRST factor to look for as a judge is damage. Takedowns do no damage (generally)- a flurry of punches could have them on the edge. Either way we see it- this is not a "Real [street] Fight". It is a refereed sport- saying what would happen in X or Y scenario isn't really relevant. Of course takedowns are valuable- but again, we're talking about round stealing, not discounting the importance of a takedown.
@@gonufc "They may not have gone for it at all if there weren't rounds." People that are losing a round tend to go for slightly riskier strategies in the end to try and win it back. That's something that's going to happen the instant you introduce rounds, it's not exclusive to takedowns at all. "How can a takedown be more like a knockdown than a flurry of punches" Because a takedown is a significant advantage that you have gotten that you will not see the full benefit of because of the round system.

If you do something to fix takedowns as a tool for round stealing you realistically have to reduce the importance of takedowns in some way. The only solution I can think of that wouldn't diminish the importance of takedowns would be to make the round keep going if the fighters aren't in a neutral position but I don't think that's realistic.
@@DIVAD291 No, ground and pound does damage, unless a freak accident occurs, a takedown alone doesn't cause any significant damage. I'm not sure if you've slightly misconstrued my point: my problem is poor judges giving a round to someone because of a very late takedown regardless of what happened before- round stealing is only a problem with poor judges. If they judge it like a late takedown _always_ wins a fighter the round then, again, poor judging is the primary issue.
Too bad you guys don't know what you're talking about in reference to judging a boxing match. If it's a 12 round fight, that means 12 separate fights. round 3 has nothing to do with 1 or 2 or 10 or 9. Each round is scored at the end of the round. There is no "stealing" rounds.

Prince is a huge draw because of his cocky nature but undeniable results. Half love watching his victories and half wish for a satisfying ko that give him humble pie. There was one fight that battered him but even then he demonstrated his mental toughness. Super impressive.

Hahaha it’s so hilarious to me seeing Eubank freakout about the hypnosis.”I don’t know what I’m dealing with, with hypnosis he will be more. There has to be a line drawn, I’m taking it up with the board of control.” He’s acting like Collins is performing blood sacrifices and summoning the devil to help him lol that shit is too funny, he really got in his head with that. Perfectly played.
@@gooderish Let's be straight about it. Eubank was never a great boxer he was a slower version of Prince Naseem, granted Eubank didn't just fight bums or make opponents wait 40 minutes so they got cold before a fight but he was still a hit and run boxer. Yes it will win you fights but it changed the whole concept of boxing that we still see to this day. And boxing is all the worst for it. Even Lewis who was a great boxer adapted it and his fights became boring. Granted it prolonged his career but who wants to watch hit a run boxing. It's the reason boxing fans lost all interest in the sport for years.
as a filipino and a pacman fan it was devastating watching our idol get knocked out like that. however juan definitely earned that win so props to him.
@Combat Mania the way he timed Manny coming in. He had enough time to learn Manny's angles and how he goes in for a punch. Marquez managed to set it up perfect
i was watching the night of the fight... the way he fell.....i honestly thought he had killed him. that was the most perfectly timed punch i've seen my whole life.....it would have knocked out tyson.....
@@sabin97 some people were complaining about how marquez stepped on manny's foot to hinder his movement and watching the clip, im almost inclined to believe. the way hell with that right foot still planted tho
The last one even looked scared in the ring that’s why he lost he wasn’t even throwing punches u could just see his body movement he wasn’t feeling confident in him self
I loved Prince Hamed since 1997. I'm American but born in England. He was so good and the most entertaining knockout artist. Even as his biggest fan, he could've shaved like ten minutes off of his ring entrance.
steve collins' tactic against eubank was so fucking genius, miyamoto musashi would've loved it haha using your opponents psychology to totally psych him out.
What ??? Beating an older man already worn out from many hard fight's , beating boxer's who were at the very end of their boxing day's ? Give me a break casual
Was a diva though. A "round thief" with flurries in the last 30 seconds to impress the judges, wouldnt agree to 15 round bouts, cherry picked opponents here and there. A brilliant tactician for sure but the least likeable of the four kings.
Met Steve Collins, he’s such a cool guy. Really nice and once reffed a boxing bout in Wales. He needed to lend some trainers as he had none. I gave him mine... Anyway, after the show he signed them for me. I had a picture with him and the trainers lol. Top guy !

Prince was one of the best fighters around and he'll be remembered for far longer than most out there. He was entertaining, he was actually good, and only had one loss to his name at a young age. It's a shame he never came back to boxing
Prince Naseem was amazing, wow! Such incredible natural talent. Those reflexes, that speed and so much power at the same time. It is not easy to knock out another pro boxer but he just knocked people out so easly, like a touch of death. He was sort of like Lomachencko is today but already back then and with real knock out power.
Everything Klitschko said leading up to that fight was for AJ to hear.. Obsessed, USB stick. The fact that he announced his prediction on Ukrainian TV was no accident. He knew AJ's people would translate that and it would get into AJ's head thinking "oh Klitschko doesnt think he can beat me, he thinks I can KO him, then I should KO him". So while AJ is looking for that KO, he may make a mistake and Klitschko can make him pay. That's what Klitschko wants - AJ's mistake. If Klitschko wins, its like "omg the tactic worked", if Klitschko lost, its like "well he sort of predicted what happened anyway".
You make a solid and sensible point, but as mcspikesky said: you've misunderstood. Klitschko didn't predict that he would lose to Joshua: he predicted that as Joshua comes in, he (Klitschko) would knock him out late on in the fight. So the prediction was ultimately inaccurate
Disappointed that you didn’t have Durán vs Leonard when Duran just completely messed up Leonard’s mind and gave Leonard a lesson he didn’t soon forget.
It's such a shame that Prince Naseem wasn't born 2 decades later, the man's persona is brilliant for social media, he'd have such a huge following and it's not like he wouldn't has cleared his divisions today like he did back then.
The quality of your content is unmatched when it comes to boxing. This is what boxing needs so desperately seeing as these promoters can barely sell 50k ppv buys even with some headline names.
90s Foreman was also one of the only fighters who seemed to be able to completely control his power. He could make you think he lost his knockout power for a half a fight and then just unleash on you at will without slowing down much.
I was at the AJ v Klitcho fight it was amazing, AJ loves Klitcho & respects him above all fighters to this day. He speaks to him all of the time still also always seeking his advice. To be fair after the fight in front of 90 thousand Klitcho got a fantastic standing ovation from everyone in the place.

When I was a child I grew up in a very poor village with very aggressive people and kids. There were many sub groups of people all acting very differently but all having a hate twoards the other sub groups. Romanians (natives, moldavians, valahians), hungarians, gypsies (classic), gypsies who left their traditions, romanized gypsies and hungarized gypsies. There were many "gangsters" and the life was tought. We had to fight one another for no reason such as a wrong stare, wrong place/wrong time, different culture, different dialect. There were ambushes were for example 1 kid acted like he was your friend and taked you to a far area and then other kids jumped you. The fights were pretty brutal, broken bones were pretty ordinary, throwing rocks, using sticks and other objects were common too. (One time a kid tried to smash my had with a huge rock) There were also many pedophiles and kids abducters. People 5-10 years older then you would beat the crap out of you. So you had to have pretty good strategies outside. I think I was in hundreds of fights with hundreds of different people. I had my arms broken, I had rocks trown in my face, broken nose, I was suffocated, I was ganked for a couple of times by groups 10+ people it was a mess. There were kids who died, who were abducted and their organs stolen, molested kids, etc. But I'm glad now it's over, I lerned many important things about fighting. I came to the conclusion that the best skill is to read the situations and avoid fights. It can be also seen as a fear but from what fights we had we when we were little/teens now as adults it can be far more dangerous and devasting. I only saw how different and inoccent other people were only when I traveled. I could only be jelous and feel good for them that they didn't experienced that, even if some are scumbags.
Man I'm sorry that things were like that and that you and everyone else had to go through that. I'm glad now that things are now better for you and that it's over, may God Bless you and bless everyone else.
Marquez’s KO of Pacqiou is still one of my favorites. He heard the 10 second warning and threw the punch at 10 seconds. Right as Manny’s hands went down the punch landed and turned his lights off
Definitely one of Juan Manuel Marquez's best shining moments in his career. I'm personally a big fan of Pacquiao and me and my family remember being completely devastated by his KO. I have to admit though, Marquez executed that punch beautifully and he deserved that win.
Steve Collins ploy was a stroke of genius and he needed it too. Steve really needed to get in a mental state where he could find advantages over a monster like Eubank. Because if Steve didn't employ that tactic, he'd be the one going into the fight intimidated at Eubank's power. Just imagine how intimidating it is to fight against a guy with a 43 win streak over some quality names.
@@jesuscarrillo8889 shut your bitch ass up you hating on a another man because he was confident in his skills and only a casual would h Say he fought bums without even knowing who he faced

This video cropped out the previous part that Tim Bradley said.

Didn't know the Collins Eubanks story which earned you a like but don't ever disregard the boxing prowess of George Foreman again. Man was a physical monster and a sublime strategist who completely controlled his opponents in order to win.
Holy shit, Eubank looked genuinely terrified coming into the first round. That’s insane. Unless that was just his demeanor, I’ve never seen any of his other fights.
There should be a mandatory time for ring walk entrance. You have the challenger waiting 10-15 mins while the champ comes in acting like they are on broadway performing. Each fighter should just walk out and have a couple mins to get in for battle . If not a point should be taken away in the first round for it.
The promoters demand big entrances and making it more than a match inside the ring. It’s upto the challenger to stay warmed up, mentally prepared and ready to fight. If you can’t stand the mental heat then get outta the kitchen, you know the set up, deal with it.
That's an strategy, that in Ali's case might have caused his parkinson... That's not clever at all - But his trash talk was, so Ali should've been on this list anyway!
@@JamesDeanStudiesLanguage You need to watch Ali vs Foreman again, Ali took a lot of punches in that fight, and didn't dominate at all before Foreman gassed out... But yes, the Fraizer fights might also be a big part of why Ali got parkinson!
@@JunkiesTube I've watched Ali vs Foreman a dozen times. Foreman's punches rarely hit clean. They rolled off of Ali. You could tell the effect of those grazing punches by Ali's composure. He was barely hurt at all and didn't spend any time in the hospital. Contrast that to Frazier. Ali looked like he was going to kill over after the second and third fight.
@@JamesDeanStudiesLanguage Okay, I can give you that, or it's true... But Ali still didn't dominate before he stunned Big George. Anyway, rope-a-dope is still a stay away and pray tactic which doesn't need much ring IQ to use as tactic or gameplan, it is not much different than peek-a-boo style if you think about it, if the style is used the way Arthur Abraham did, it'll gas most fighters against it out, but it is alot more bullet proof than rope-a-dope (in my eyes)

There has to be a line drawn, I’m taking it up with the board of control.” He’s acting like Collins is performing blood sacrifices and summoning the devil to help him lol that shit is too funny, he really got in his head with that. Perfectly played.
yes i just just watched that part, your explanation got me in bits too funny indeed mate hahahaha
It basically ended his career. I believe they fought again and he lost that too.
I mean mike tyson did a lot of hypnosis 🤷♂️. And it’s corroborated with science now 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Emojis because idrk
Eubank nearly killed Watson in the ring.
That probably was on his mind concerning the hypnosis bollocks.
@@gooderish Let's be straight about it. Eubank was never a great boxer he was a slower version of Prince Naseem, granted Eubank didn't just fight bums or make opponents wait 40 minutes so they got cold before a fight but he was still a hit and run boxer. Yes it will win you fights but it changed the whole concept of boxing that we still see to this day. And boxing is all the worst for it. Even Lewis who was a great boxer adapted it and his fights became boring. Granted it prolonged his career but who wants to watch hit a run boxing. It's the reason boxing fans lost all interest in the sport for years.

Prince was one of the best fighters around and he'll be remembered for far longer than most out there. He was entertaining, he was actually good, and only had one loss to his name at a young age. It's a shame he never came back to boxing
His only loss was his 2nd last fight. What are you talking about?
@@ripxllj7545 He was still young then, yes?
The reason why Wladimir Klitschko is on the list was because of his nickname "Dr. Steelhammer".
Prince Naseem was amazing, wow! Such incredible natural talent. Those reflexes, that speed and so much power at the same time. It is not easy to knock out another pro boxer but he just knocked people out so easly, like a touch of death. He was sort of like Lomachencko is today but already back then and with real knock out power.
Everything Klitschko said leading up to that fight was for AJ to hear.. Obsessed, USB stick. The fact that he announced his prediction on Ukrainian TV was no accident. He knew AJ's people would translate that and it would get into AJ's head thinking "oh Klitschko doesnt think he can beat me, he thinks I can KO him, then I should KO him". So while AJ is looking for that KO, he may make a mistake and Klitschko can make him pay. That's what Klitschko wants - AJ's mistake. If Klitschko wins, its like "omg the tactic worked", if Klitschko lost, its like "well he sort of predicted what happened anyway".
You misunderstood
You make a solid and sensible point, but as mcspikesky said: you've misunderstood.
Klitschko didn't predict that he would lose to Joshua: he predicted that as Joshua comes in, he (Klitschko) would knock him out late on in the fight. So the prediction was ultimately inaccurate

Disappointed that you didn’t have Durán vs Leonard when Duran just completely messed up Leonard’s mind and gave Leonard a lesson he didn’t soon forget.
It's such a shame that Prince Naseem wasn't born 2 decades later, the man's persona is brilliant for social media, he'd have such a huge following and it's not like he wouldn't has cleared his divisions today like he did back then.

No he wasn't at all , are you a wilder fan ??
And his punches are one of the strongest
90s Foreman was also one of the only fighters who seemed to be able to completely control his power. He could make you think he lost his knockout power for a half a fight and then just unleash on you at will without slowing down much.
not only was he huge on details, he was just huge

@@MathewBall It's just a very general statement that can be applied to many situations.
When I was a child I grew up in a very poor village with very aggressive people and kids. There were many sub groups of people all acting very differently but all having a hate twoards the other sub groups.
Romanians (natives, moldavians, valahians), hungarians, gypsies (classic), gypsies who left their traditions, romanized gypsies and hungarized gypsies. There were many "gangsters" and the life was tought. We had to fight one another for no reason such as a wrong stare, wrong place/wrong time, different culture, different dialect. There were ambushes were for example 1 kid acted like he was your friend and taked you to a far area and then other kids jumped you. The fights were pretty brutal, broken bones were pretty ordinary, throwing rocks, using sticks and other objects were common too. (One time a kid tried to smash my had with a huge rock)
There were also many pedophiles and kids abducters. People 5-10 years older then you would beat the crap out of you. So you had to have pretty good strategies outside. I think I was in hundreds of fights with hundreds of different people. I had my arms broken, I had rocks trown in my face, broken nose, I was suffocated, I was ganked for a couple of times by groups 10+ people it was a mess. There were kids who died, who were abducted and their organs stolen, molested kids, etc. But I'm glad now it's over, I lerned many important things about fighting. I came to the conclusion that the best skill is to read the situations and avoid fights. It can be also seen as a fear but from what fights we had we when we were little/teens now as adults it can be far more dangerous and devasting.
I only saw how different and inoccent other people were only when I traveled. I could only be jelous and feel good for them that they didn't experienced that, even if some are scumbags.

Marquez’s KO of Pacqiou is still one of my favorites. He heard the 10 second warning and threw the punch at 10 seconds. Right as Manny’s hands went down the punch landed and turned his lights off
Definitely one of my favorites
True
Definitely one of Juan Manuel Marquez's best shining moments in his career. I'm personally a big fan of Pacquiao and me and my family remember being completely devastated by his KO. I have to admit though, Marquez executed that punch beautifully and he deserved that win.
Steve Collins ploy was a stroke of genius and he needed it too. Steve really needed to get in a mental state where he could find advantages over a monster like Eubank. Because if Steve didn't employ that tactic, he'd be the one going into the fight intimidated at Eubank's power. Just imagine how intimidating it is to fight against a guy with a 43 win streak over some quality names.

There should be a mandatory time for ring walk entrance. You have the challenger waiting 10-15 mins while the champ comes in acting like they are on broadway performing. Each fighter should just walk out and have a couple mins to get in for battle . If not a point should be taken away in the first round for it.
Awarriorscall1 I totally agree but I’m sure he was making tons of money for the sport and the fans liked it.

@@JamesDeanStudiesLanguage Okay, I can give you that, or it's true... But Ali still didn't dominate before he stunned Big George.
Anyway, rope-a-dope is still a stay away and pray tactic which doesn't need much ring IQ to use as tactic or gameplan, it is not much different than peek-a-boo style if you think about it, if the style is used the way Arthur Abraham did, it'll gas most fighters against it out, but it is alot more bullet proof than rope-a-dope (in my eyes)
