  1. Exactly that....hopelessness is a horrible feeling to have during a fight as its not a test of your courage its a test of something much deeper than that.....nice chatting to you squire,be interested in your thoughts after the event
  2. Rigondeaux thats him......it was like the Leonard/Duran no mas fight without the clowning. When sheer ability can make good fighters quit.....thats a special fighter.
  3. You are right Usyk and Lomanchenko are great tacticians but so mentally acute....the type of fighters who can make you quit by just taking your hope away i saw Lomanchenko do that with the Cuban guy sorry i forget his name....they literally exhaust your mental capacity to think clearly and you feel like you just have no options left.....scarey types of fighters but scarey in a whole different way.
  4. For me its just the type of opponent who by his natural assets could expose Joshuas weaknesses......Usyk is one of those fighters who causes mental pressure rather than physical pressure,his footwork moves him into areas you dont feel composed and that is mentally unsettling.....and so for a fighter like Joshua who isnt the most naturally gifted fighter thats going to cause him a lot of stress....maybe to the point where he gets desperate and out of position......its hard to envisage a Usyk points win but a late stoppage......its an interesting match up anyway.
  5. Absolutely...i really admire the life he lives and total commitment he gives to competitive challenges he,s the type of chap you'd want with you rather than against you......but i know seeing adult men box for the first time is always a hard watch and just couldnt watch someone i rate so highly do it ?

    Canabis

    A low heart rate doesnt necessarily mean a healthy heart or good level of fitness someone could be on beta blockers or anything,someone mentioned Bradycardia but with a resting heart rate under i think its 60 it isnt even considered a health problem.....in my opinion everybody should know at least month to month roughly what their resting heart rate is.....mines been down as low as low to mid 40's a few years back but is around 51/52 in the morning these days.
  7. I think Usyks footwork,power and accuracy might surprise a few people.....i wouldnt like to call it one way or the other but if Joshua cant get him out in the first half of the fight it could be a long uncomfortable evening for him.
  8. Couldnt even bring myself to watch it i have so much respect for Larratt as an arm wrestler i just couldnt watch him demean himself in this farce.
  9. Didnt like that Green Green Grass thing but what a character in Fools & Horses.....made a few bob but stuck around his own people i always said that series was so comparable to working class folks lives he played the part brilliant theres so many lines we still use and laugh about today.........." the baby's brown " ?...classic.
  10. Terribly sad,his son is a friend of a friend he only said a few months back he didnt expect his father to see the year out.....little bit before my time but all the olduns ive ever spoke about footie with from these parts rated him the best and most clinical finisher they had ever seen......had a lovely cheeky humour about him,nice fella and genuine legendary sportsman.....RIP.
  11. Havent gone over the whole thread as some of the hypocrisy being spoke just turned me right off but watching the way some of them ol bill were acting is the very reason they command absolutely no respect from people anymore....lets have it right if those idiotic pricks sitting on the M25 in their hi vis vests were wearing football shirts or a Stone Island jumper instead, plod would have been wading in with their batons.....them people would have been picking themselves out of the grass verge instead of being asked if they need anything !....anyone who thinks its not all part of something bigge
  12. Brilliant....no better noise than a childs laughs.

    Socks

    Thats a relief i clicked on this thinking Socks had snuffed it !!
  14. Who passed him to fight ?....them,governing bodies,managers,promoters.....take your pick of who can and should be protecting the sport.
  15. f****d if i can work out how to attach a picture to a private message Ken....but these.
  16. Exactly that....maybe my cockney accent sent it over a bit harsh but i certainly didnt use the word in an offensive way......ive just looked it up to make sure and it means " unpleasant as a result of poverty or neglect " I mean,that picture wasnt put up to show how well the chaps doing for himself the geezers falling across the floor of a mouldy room because he cant get off his pallets for crying out loud should people not voice their concern....arrr f**k it !
  17. Stick to greasy cafes.....ask for a coffee,you just get a coffee !
  18. Living pretty much in the forest i tend to hear them before i see them then its the mad dash for the trees while the little mutt gives chase....cant say as ive noticed increases in numbers though but as someone else said seeing them in open fields has been a bit of a strange one.
  19. And wait dont tell me,thats why you no longer support your own country ? You know i remember constantly pulling a geezer up on here once who used to fit his morals to the decisions he had made in life instead of fitting the decisions he made in life to his morals,and you constantly agreeing with me......its funny how things work out eh ?
  20. Why not .......theres a photograph up what is their to hide....the chap asked for advice and that was mine.
  21. Maybe.....give me dry/warm/comfortable all day long.....each to their own i suppose.
  22. No problem mate you're not going to see them in your local Argos ?...and are of course aimed at a very small number of likeminded individuals
  23. I can see he's eccentric thats fine......but nobody lives in squalor out of choice....do they ? ?
  24. In all fairness,and without wanting to patronise the ol boy....but nobody in the free and developed world should have to live like that surely if times are that hard just f**k your internet connection off and paint your wall/buy a bed etc.
  25. Like we're not having to give up enough of our British identity already....has monarchy had its day,absolutely not !! I dont really give a f**k for Morris Dancing,Bonfire Night,the Jocks with their kilts and tartan or many other traditional British stuff the monarchy included it just doesnt interest me.....but do i support it,f****n right i do. " Support the country you live in......or live in the country you support " !!!!
