    punching power is derived mostly from technique and speed.
    heavy hands are only valid if the other two are present.
    I doubt Brown knew much about fighting.
    Either way, I'm not picking sides at this point.

    Your souce of the New York Post:
    "Officer Darren Wilson suffered an “orbital blowout fracture to the eye socket,” Gateway Pundit reported"


    So.... yeah well.
    The Gateway Pundit? Really?


    Don't you think this should be some major news thing that should have been mentioned by some police spoke(wo)man at a press conference, to than be picked up by some more common well established media thing.


    Gateway Pundit,... that's way to obscure to me to give my trust away.
    Sorry.

    Maybe the story is fake and you should not believe everything mentioned on obscure sites.

    To a certain point. Been a fight fan for a long time, some guys just have that power... (*)(*)(*)(*)ty technique and all. Technique can help because of placement and torque, but some guys just have natural KO power.

    Tyson had good technique especially in his younger days. He also had vicious KO power which when he started to lose is all he relied on. Here is a good example ..

    No real technique but just raw power.

    A bit rich to say this guy who got shot is just as strong and well trained as Mike Tyson.

    ummm are you saying Tyson didn't have technique or that he just had natural KO power ?
    because he was a very small heavyweight but still did this

    Anything could've happened during the week the chief kept Wilson secluded. Why didn't he bring him out immediately and say "see, look at this beautiful orbital blowout fracture."

    Btw, I'm curious as to why rightwingers like our militarized police departments only when they are killing blacks? Just a month or two ago, they were calling the cops who showed up at the Bundy ranch 'jack-booted nazis'.

    You are aware it was reported from the beginning that the police officer went to the hospital immediately upon the arrival of others there?

    This is from CNN as I recalled this info and did a quick search.

    "The officer was taken to an area hospital where he was treated for a "swollen face," Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson said, adding he had not personally seen the officer's injury. He was released the same day. Jackson said he has spoken to the officer, who was "very shaken about what happened that day and the aftermath. ... He's hurt.""

    Here is another

    "Police chief says officer in Missouri shooting of Michael Brown was injured . . . "

    . . . Police Chief Thomas Jackson told a news conference the unidentified officer was treated at a hospital for swelling on the side of his face, one of the few details released about events surrounding the Saturday night shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown. . . "

    He had natural KO power. He had decent technique, but when he connected, he could knockout the biggest of opponents.

    less than 30 second boxing matches were not about technique..................just pure KO power.

    Does that change something that the eye fracture story is still from an obscure internet site and not found on a more regular accepted and trusted media site?


    Do you think that asking for a more regular accepted and trusted media site, is too much to ask?
    Or do you think you should trust any obscure source on the web?



    IMHO there is nothing odd or wrong to not trust obscure sources,
    while the opposite just is odd.

    I don't know if it's valid or not but they said it was confirmed by st. Louis PD officers. It sure provided a lot of detail though. In the end, we will all know exactly what happened and my guess is this will be validated, but those calling the officer a murderer won't care either way.

    Because the main stream media is there to "scoop" a civil rights story.....................anything to the contrary is irrelevant to them....

    are you waiting for it to be on wikipedia? or for one of the main, agenda pushing cnn's to admit defeat and post it?



    if/when it does come out in the mainstream.... will you then admit it?

    either way... a statement is forthcoming within the week from the officer and his lawyers. So, just like the zimmerman broken nose pictures, this too, will come out. And meanwhile.... the left will hang on to anything to avoid admitting the cop was right and that the teen was indeed, attacking the cop.

    Wow, you can tell all of that by looking at that picture?

    You should see if that department will hire you as their psychic....
