How is my disagreement with you logic equivalent to agreeing with the OP?! I disagreed with your comparssion of an Iron Man event to boxing.
I could of made the same comparison, but favourable to boxing, if I said, I can run, and cycle, but I can't enter a undisputed heavyweight world championship. The boxing *event* is just too demanding.
Iron man is an event geared towards people who have trained to that level. Same as a title fight.
Why are you comparing an world clbutt event to an activity?
You did box, but did you box in an event comparable to Iron Man in boxing circles? Like a title fight?
OTish The greatest sportsman of all time 4359Uh, because the OP butterted that boxing was the most demanding sport, then I said that iron man triathalon's were more demanding than boxing and (catch this part) you disagreed with me. What about this...
The very fact that Iron Man has a these tough cut off points puts it downs as a professional level *event*. The ingredients of Iron man, swimming, running and cycling I can do, but *not* at the Iron Man event levels. Just like I can box, skip, stretch my arms out, and duck, but I cannot enter the ring in a world Heavyweight Title boxing event.
oh for gods sake.! I apologise, but I'm not going to bother...
For running, your opponent *is* the distance. The more you run the stronger your opponent. In boxing the strength of your opponent lies in part, to the clbutt of the guy opposite you. I'll give up at 15miles, I'll also give up against a guy who is obviously better than me.
At the end of he day, 'to box' is like to cycle, run, walk swim. We can all do it until the bars are lifted to extreme conditions, either in Iron man, or in a professional title fight. I have boxed (my level of boxing was akin to cycling round my friends house and then comparing it to Iron Man), I have run and swam long distance, each discipline I can do at my own level.
Basically you are comparing a event to an activity. That is what I'm disagreeing with. Its nothing to do with OP.
