The COVID-19 Thread and Hypothetical Boxing Predictions
- Thread starter mjmjr25

Well if 5G weakens your immune system, your in a terrible place if you come into contact with COVID-19.
As many are now aware that people in poor health or compromised immune systems are at great risk of surviving the virus.
Having good nutrition and a healthy immune system to battle the virus is key.
Also doctors prescribing Hydroxychloroquine as a treatment also want you to have 250mg of Zinc. Which is high.. too much Zinc over a long period can be bad for your kidneys. 30-50mg's a day is fine.. but they say and easy way to know if your over dosing is if water tastes metal like.
Zinc is nessisary with Hydroxychloroquine for it to work.. it's like a gun without bullets! Useless without ammo.
Edited to add:
Back in the day the military knew about the radiation of the radios. They would put a wall of food cans in front of them and it would heat the cans to 150 degrees! They would try not to stay directly in front of them.

No idea what this is doing in this thread. But Tyson is right. He (Tyson) would have lost.

Any type of Mike wouldn't have been enough. Ali won titles having to slay the boxing equivalent of a monster. Liston and Foreman. And both of those would have handled Tyson as well, IMO.

Ali went over 40 rounds with Joe Frazier. Even if Tyson could get inside Ali's jab, and even if he could land on that elusive chin, Ali would eat those shots and throw them right back.
Tyson didn't have a particularly great chin. It would be like Ali vs Foreman except he wouldn't even need the rope-a-dope because Tyson wouldn't be big enough to get his shots off like George.

This. Foreman has no doubt one of the best chins in boxing and Ali was the only man to knock him out. That's Prime Foreman, not old Foreman. That being said, Ali could also take a punch. Ali would systematically pick Tyson apart. I think Lennox Lewis and Ali would be more interesting but I would still take Ali in that one.

Lewis has the arm length of a light pole, it’s hard to get in close. Still great to watch his fights.

An interesting one would be prime Ali v prime Larry Holmes. I would pay to watch that.

Yes, that was one of his strengths. He could keep his opponent at bay with that long jab. A world class boxer and a damn shame we didn't get to see him fight Tyson in his prime but we did get two classic matches with Holyfield and really good one with Vitali Klitschko barring a stoppage from a cut.

Lewis vs Briggs was a short one but it was fun as hell while it lasted.
Lewis vs Rahman I and II were both great
Both Holyfield fights and the Vitali fight were wars.
Riddick Bowe didn't want any of Lewis

Biggest Tyson fan but that's a 7-3 matchup in Ali's favor. Tyson would not have the stamina to sustain Ali's jab, footwork, stamina, agility, & speed.

Going in the favorite with the crowd was Rahman. All through the build up Lewis looked kinda detached. Didn't particularly want to engage with the fans. Rahman was the total opposite.
Ahh.. the good old days of boxing!
Need to hunt for videos from those times.
Growing up we would all be glued to the tube durring the big fights. Pay per view sucks.
Parents were big fans of Lary Holmes.
Yeah got it right about Tyson going the distance. He didnt need to train for it as it would always be over in a min or less hehe.
Guys wanting to get in the ring for the big bucks knowing they were gona get knocked out in 20-30 seconds. Haha

BOXING. THREAD.
Dr. Christopher Voscopoulos, ICU medical director at Southern Hills Hospital in Las Vegas, explains how the ‘proning’ treatment takes pressure off the lungs by turning the patient onto their stomach.
A technique called "proning" can be the difference between life and death for critical COVID-19 patients, a Las Vegas ICU doctor said Friday.
Appearing on "America's Newsroom," Southern Hills Hospital ICU Medical Director Dr. Christopher Voscopoulos explained that the medical center had learned the technique from other physicians in virus hot spots who passed along the "especially valuable" information.
"What proning is, is that normally we have patients lie on their back," he explained. "When they lie on their back, their heart applies pressure on the back of their lungs and it closes off those lungs just a little."
"And, what we do is we simply turn people over and they lie on their stomach. By doing that, the heart falls off the lungs and opens up a little bit more of the lung," he stated further. "You have to remember that these are people fighting for their life. And so, when we open up a little more lung, that's the difference between life and death."
Sounds grim but I'll remember that info if ever needed.

Mike Tyson is the greatest heavyweight champion of all time.
Just look at him at the age of 50 and compare him to any other of "the greats" at that age.
Muhammad Ali couldn't even wipe his own ass by the age of 50.
