The rankings are there for a reason mate Denis hasnt pulled in the biggest events......why should the kings move be banned it doesnt break any rules and actually takes an extremely high level of technical ability,knowledge and strength......regarding the loss to Denis...Devon has said since that he has beaten many guys who are 20% stronger than he is with pure technique alone,but that Denis was probably 30/35% stronger than him and it was too much to overcome.....he also said that to beat Denis he needs to get stronger,but as much as he loves the sport is not willing to die for it !....basical

The 3 best left handed pullers in the world you havent mentioned....Sagnashvili,Laletin and Bagent.....Cyplenkov has never pulled them. Nobody can claim to be the best when they can only win on 1 arm Levan Sagnashvili is ranked number 1 right and left arm. Personally i think the way Michael Todd has perfected the kings move Cyplenkov even back at his strongest will not have the levers to get around it....his only chance would be out of the strap but the majority of Todds matches go to straps. Larratt stating Denis is the most powerful puller he has faced means nothing about winn

Cyplenkov has never been " the best ".....he is not rated in the top 20 right handed and left handed is probably around 4 or 5.....he beat Larratt convincingly but is paying the price physically i personally dont think Denis will ever reach the world number 1. Levan Saginashvili and Michael Todd are the 2 best super heavyweights at this moment although Saginashvili was recently beaten by Eugeny Prudnik. To be considered the best you have to dominate the sport over a period of time and Denis Cyplenkov has never done that.....the greatest arm wrestler who ever lived is without doubt Jo

Alek is referred to as schoolboy,he is a cracking prospect in the sport but has never pulled any of the bigger names yet....his older brother Alex who is referred to as Toproll has made an impression and beaten some decent names,his biggest match to date was against Justin Bishop which he lost 3 - 0....Justin is in the top 5 middleweights in the world....so for a couple of very ineperienced young lads they are doing great,travelling all round the world learning and becoming stronger.......arm wrestling is a sport that takes years and years to reach your full potential,to master techniques,deve

Are you aware of how many legal supplements there are available that contain performance enhancing drugs ? These are the problems sport is going to run into all the time that labs are light years ahead of testers.....and the reason labs are light years ahead of testers is because Canelo gets paid more to put his gumshield in for 3 minutes than Wada's annual testing budget.
-
What excuse ? If a substance is legal before testing....but becomes illegal after testing....what is an athlete to do ? I agree we are not far away from peds being given the green light.....its just how its done from a moralistic point.
-
If a fighter takes a LEGAL substance on January 1st Then gets tested on January 10th The legal substance that was taken then gets put on the BANNED substance list on January 17th And the sample then gets tested on January 31st and comes back as a failed test............vigilant or not its beyond a fighters control...and most would say an unfair process at best....a corrupt process at worst.

f**k me thats some good knowledge i didnt know what Stan was on about i thought he,d lost his marbles for a minute ?

With the investment gone into the club and the momentum they have from last year i think most Wolves fans will see anything less than another European spot a disappointment i think they are close to cracking the top 5. City and Liverpool again for me i can see things panning out similar to last year they are the only top clubs with stability. I think Utd will fall early.....Lampard will start well but they,ll fall away.....Arsenal will just be normal Arsenal....and i can see Spurs losing Poch at some point and slipping away late on. My little Hammers will hopefully bang in anot
-
You say that Mick but fighters have to earn their ranking they cant rely on a fight they had years previously.......Buster Douglas cant suddenly pitch up in the top 5 because he beat Mike Tyson.......Fury has not beaten a top 10 fighter in 5 years....and has only ever beaten 1 top 10 fighter in his entire career !!.....you sound like a proper boxing fan Mick yet you have clearly fallen into the trap set by managers/promoters these days where they want fans to pick sides.... be it a fighter,a tv channel or a governing body. The sport is no more corrupt than it ever was its just corrupt fro
-
Only ever seen them on the telly i feel quite jealous ?.....interesting little read cheers.
-
Nobody pays attention to the rankings of governing bodies anymore Mick they are just a tool to manoeuvre fighters into positions....the Ibf currently have Joshua number 6,Fury number 7........and Kabayel,Kownacki and Helenius numbers 3,4 and 5 ?.....most people use Boxrec as a general guide to position and Scwarz was ranked 56 !! Theres no way of dressing it up any different to what it is.....Bob Arum cannot make Fury fight certain opponents just because he,s bankrolling him the decision ultimately comes down to the fighter.....its a sad time in the sport where the " 0 " is everything,Jos
-
Yep fair point....what i meant was they end up being big box office based on their personality/entertainment instead of their fighting......Mcgregor/Mayweather being the perfect example.
-
I dont think its a poor comparison at all its 2 groups of people belittling their own character for financial gain.......i cant see any logic in the comparison between hunting and puppy peddling so i dont even know what to say to that......is there a shortage of dogs ?.....are dog homes not full to the brim with unwanted dogs across the entire country ?.....im not the most compassionate of people but having strolled around some of these rehoming places of late it really hits home what a disgrace the dog breeding game is,i find it hard to comprehend how or why you are trying to justify puppy pe -
Come on Mick you sound like a well read guy that keeps up with all the goings on,i like listening to your posts as you follow things i cant be arsed to follow.....but you cant give Fury another pass with this nonsense its an embarrassing match up that cannot be defended......its so laughable i dont know where to start,personally i think these kind of fights are a big risk to a mentally fragile fighter as you worry about the focus/motivation/desire.....its difficult to stay motivated for fights that you know are not going to be competitive,you lose your edge as a fighter....its just silly to ta
-
Ta for the link mate....not my cuppa tea all that weight pulling malarkey looks the same muggy shit they was doing 25 years ago with the same over conditioned crap dogs.....they are no smaller than standard staffords anyway.......i cant believe old uncle Ed is still knocking about he must be 107 by now !
-
Shes coming on mate....sprightly but steady thats the combination you want.
-
Thats exactly it,im an all or nothing kind of chap theres only 1 breed id be looking towards for that kind of bug.....but like you say,a good natured energetic little dog that doesnt look ridiculous will suffice these days.....its a shame theres no such thing as a mini stafford the way they have a mini ebt.
-
That clearly went straight over your canister ?
-
Due to all the confidentiality clauses involved in boxing at the highest level these days.....i dont know for sure......do you ?
-
At these prices are you mad ?
-
Same here i wouldnt want anything fiery id find all that a pain in the arse now,just a small little dog with a bit of energy that doesnt pain my eyes to look at is that too much to ask in the bull terrier world these days ? That pictures deceiving then he looks smaller than that...or else thats Tyson Fury holding him !
-
All this shit is part of the reason i cant really abide world level boxing anymore its like anything once you get to the very highest level it just becomes political and everything gets wrapped up in lawyers/legals and court cases the ethos of competetive sport go,s out the window......all these anti doping agencies and governing bodies are run by human beings who can be bought and corrupted the same as anyone else at the top of their game politicians,the police,bankers....no top organisation should be given blanket trust. These Ukad and Vada agencies are a joke..... " Vada 365 program ".
-
Its apples and oranges though mate....pest control is necessary,breeding countless amounts of poor quality dogs is not necessary.....we can all dress it up however we see fit,personally i cant find anything good about buying a dog with the sole purpose of making money from breeding it......is it as bad as sucking dick behind Kings Cross station to make money..... no,but it shows similar weakness and indignity in my opinion.
-
I thought we was talking about puppy peddling not a random once in a blue moon breeding.
