    It would be like celebrating a medal in the Special Olympics for gods sake.

    You're a charmer, you are.

    Id say the only way you would have any chance against her is that you would have to be a pretty good boxer, kickboxer, BJJ, and krav maga expert combined. And you would have to be excellent too and be strong. Most people here couldnt beat Katie. Fact.


    Ok, so you would have to be excellent at 4 different types of fighting to beat Katie in a fight? Surely a man who was excellent at boxing alone would be in with a chance of beating her due to the weight and height advantage.

    We get that she's a good boxer but there is no need to exaggerate!

    I'd like to think that she'd beat me off alright.

    I agree. Way too many ufc/tapout etc ''fan boys'' around. They are usually skin heads and in alot of cases, bouncers.

    Hmmmmm.


    You have feelings for them, don't you? Not feelings of hostility.....feelings of longing.....


    Don't deny them. Let them out. This is a safe space.


    Possibly the worst joke I have ever read.
    Unless you want to post about the katie taylor discussion please dont waste everyones time with you gags.

    PM me anymore halarious accusations

    In a ring. Not a hope in hell. She'd probably beat the bulk of amateur male fighters in a similar weight category. It's all about technique.

    As a side point, I think she is hot.

    ...this is true. Doubtless being surrounded by young muscled folk has given her the taste for the older well padded man. I reckon I'm in with a chance.

    It's astonishing how some men have what's called a 'glass jaw'. Usually the bigger mouthy men and ones who would dare pull a woman's hair or hit her, all that type of thing. Also men who boast about beating a female athlete, they are probably a little too much in touch with their feminine side. One good punch from a fit woman usually knocks the bullyboy out of these buckos. Now, if that woman was Katie Taylor...well my money is on her - every time, no matter how big the 'man' is.

    If Katie said she wasn't in the mood, you wouldn't ask a second time.

    agreed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,447 ✭✭✭barney4001


    one thing i noticed about Katie she bounces in and out a few times and attacks on the 4th bounce ususlly maybe the 5th now and then but mostly the 4th

    disappointing that there wasnt as much hype for the nevin fight..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Isn't there an already more up to date thread on this?

    He's nowhere near as talented.

    Jasus, Katie must be an awful threat to the male ego, the amount of "could you beat her" threads doing the rounds. I hired a lad who is a feckin man mountain recently, was convinced I could beat him at arm wrestling. Discovered rapidly that in reality I couldn't. Much the same thing really. Yes, yes I am training vigourously for the re-match in a months time.I'll feckin show him.

    So the more talented the athlete the bigger the flag you wave? :rolleyes:

    Isn't the Olympics about supporting your nation?

    This is exactly what is wrong with people in this country and what I was getting at in the other thread about the hype surrounding Katie Taylor.

    Wasn't waving any flag myself to be honest. She had a greater chance of winning therefore there was more hype. I wouldn't get over-worried about it if I was you.
