  1. While i agree in principal ive learned over the years not everyone has the personality to do that.... but it doesnt make them weak.
  2. If you knew what depleting your body to make weight felt like mate you wouldnt dream of walking to the paper shop in that condition let alone having a 12 round fight.....no fighter would try to fight in a dehydrated state,and no trainer would let him.
  3. Plod round here do as they're told ?
  4. No i wouldnt i hate bad manners so im not saying you was wrong i just dont understand this obligation people seem to think they have in protecting blacks.......dont get me wrong i,ll stand up for anyone i dont think can adequately defend themself but dont you think standing up for a perfectly able chap just because he,s black is almost patronizing him ? Personally i dont see whats " racist " about simple name calling but thats another subject. As regards misjudging the situation i do it all the time...plenty of times ive been in the company of women or young ears and told someone to
  5. Theres a few homeless chaps i see on my travels on a regular basis its hard to think they would be in the state they are in by choice....poor fuckers.
  6. Just out of curiosity Jukel......had " Bruce " been a Scot sitting at the bar listening to " jock c**t,f****n jocks " etc.....would you still of felt the urge to pull the geezer up ? Or is it just blacks you would spring to the rescue for ? LIke i say,just curious so no offence squire ?
  7. What difference does it make if a fighter misses the weight by an hour or a day....you are talking like making weight is optional ! If he misses the weight he loses his entire fight purse and becomes a liability to promoters,managers,coaches....everyone. Look if you want natural weight fighters you have to take away the reason to manipulate the scales.... theres no getting away from that.
  8. I feel a bit sorry for many plod these days they get into the job expecting a bit of action and end up with their hands tied behind their backs victims of the pc lot like the rest of us. Most ol bill play a fair game if you,ve had enough dealings with them you just accept them as opponents that you win or lose to from time to time. Apart from beat bobbies of course now they are f****n idiots !
  9. When you look at some of todays biggest companies plenty of them started from very humble beginnings,often with an owner trying something as a small hustle but later transforming into big scale contenders,success in business is sometimes about hitting a market at the right time. Wish you all the best on your journey
  10. Its not the fault of the police that third world scum want to spend their days recreating all the squalor they supposedly came here to get away from.
  11. Not if he wants to survive more than a minute of the first round it wont.....have you ever done a weight cut ?.....your body is totally spent of energy walking onto the scales is hard work,the reason you see fighters instantly take a drink is because they are in some cases literally about to pass out. If you want fighters fighting at their natural weight you have to take away the reason to dehydrate the body.....which weighing in as close to fight time as possible does.....simple.
  12. Unfortunately football has been hijacked to make a stand in society on a subject that is totally irrelevant to sport.....people get called nasty names at table tennis tournaments but nobody puts table tennis up in flashing lights its the popularity of football that makes it perfect to take hostage. I find name calling a little bit childish whether it be fat c**t,ginger c**t or black c**t so i wouldnt get into it but ive been called a cockney c**t throughout my life i dont roll into a ball crying about it i really dont see what makes blacks most important when it comes to harmless banter i
  13. Private plates that need f****n about with to make the word you want are so pony....just save up for the word you do want !
  14. I think it would be fair to say his career pretty much came to a grinding halt when he split with Jimmy Tibbs......and its not like he wasnt told,so you make your bed and all that. How a grown man who likes flashing a bit of wealth can get enjoyment from tormenting a young girl serving drinks i dont know !
  15. Im not sure you really understand what drying out is mate....the first process to drying out is to get as much water on board as humanly possible how can you do that " at the last minute "......you are missing the point of weighing in minutes before a fight,the whole point in it is so there cannot be a " rehydrating time "......no fighter is going into the ring dehydrated so weighing in directly before a fight forces the fighter to weigh it as his best weight for physical performance.
  16. I love my motors mate but the last car i went at with a spanner was probably something like a mark 4 Cortina i dont even bother lifting the bonnet anymore im lost with it all. All sounds good....and if it dont effect performance count me in. Are we likely to see you on Dragons Den anytime soon or are you beyond that stage.
  17. To be fair i think he was only ever really a light middleweight.....trained round the Thomas a Beckett on the Old Kent Road a lot on the 80,s.
  18. Do you know what cutting weight/tapering off actually entails mate,done correctly it takes precision planning you cant just pop on the scales a week out and say " oh shit im a bit heavy i think i,ll do a weight cut "...again it comes back to the art of knowing a fighters best weight one of the best i ever saw was the old trainer Denny Mancini he could just look at a lads normal walking around weight and know his best fighting weight to the pound. Even same day weigh ins like in the amateurs where you fight maybe 4 - 6 hours after weigh in still allows for plenty of rehydration,the body c
  19. ? Why dont you just admit you got all upset at my post saying theres certain things someone who has never boxed could never know,even though i said it in a polite and respectful way.....since then you,ve had a couple of half hearted prods that you hoped might register as a jab !.....stay in your own lane and you wont keep setting yourself up as a clown. When have i ever threatened you violence ?....asking someone to insult you to their face instead of from a keyboard when in the same football ground is not offering violence its how any normal lad off here who communicates genuinely would
  20. Powerful puncher but lacked stamina.....certainly gave Hagler a run for his money ?
  21. This is a good post i totally agree,we piss and moan about this country sometimes but when it comes to individual opportunity... few countries offer more. I have no idea what the technology is your on about but its always great to see folk fully committing to their goals and making their mark good for you.
  22. Jobi there wouldnt be any need for rehydration because they are not cutting weight.....cutting weight for a fight is the same as a bodybuilding show.....for the few minutes you are on stage you are weak as a kitten,you are physically spent......you wouldnt last 2 minutes in a physical fight you have no glycogen storage,potassium,sodium,electrolytes etc your body is depleted of energy....no fighter is going to enter the ring in that state. As for what happens if a fighter misses weight....he loses his fight purse,simple...which then means everyone from his trainer to his nutritionist to hi
  23. I,ll tell you what is a far worse character trait than a chatterbox shall i.....a person who says the edgiest shit they can say to get a reaction from someone and then as soon as they get that reaction they do anything possible to back the person off.....the type of person who is confrontational right up until the confrontation looks like its going to get real and then they become a poor little victim.....its weak,bordering on feeble.
  24. Very few.....but i honestly dont see what is difficult or complicated about weighing 2 men to a certain weight limit and then have them fight at that weight.....if that is indeed what we want to do.
  25. If you want to see a middleweight fight at middleweight then why are you talking about rehydrating ?.....when a fighter is using Iv's to replace fluids you can safely say there is an unnatural medical urgency,like i say mate you either want fighters at their natural athletic weights or you dont....the safety aspect helped fighters cheat the scales we cant have it all ways and no fighter is going to enter the ring dehydrated so when better to weigh them in than before a fight. You mention bulldogs and as ive always said the greatest skill a conditioner can have is being able to find a dogs
