Was at the weigh in at Covent Garden today so refreshing to see a bunch of lads just get on and off the scales with no drama or push shoving contests,out in the open air it was like old times......Eubank made a complete dick of himself again,Benns boy weighed 6 or 7 pound more than his opponent who looked like he,d just been dragged off a local building site,as did Dillian Whytes opponent......there was some serious tension between him and big Josh....man them boys dont like each other Think the fight of the night could be Groves/Murray interesting little dust up there.

Maybe now he,ll realise his limitations and accept he,s just a fighter.............not a machine,a super hero,a comedian,clairvoyant or psychiatrist................he,s just a fighter who gets injuries like anyone else does.

Must admit id love to give it a go....not sure i know enough to actually stay alive very long but would certainly be up for the challenge for 6 months or so id probably come back weighing about 7 stone !............not something id want to do permanently i like to be around folk too much......and after all said and done if you know you can just go home when you,ve had enough i doubt its the same experience.

Everything written is governed by libel law. Of course you could be sued. So, what you're saying is that everyone should be careful what they write and what they repeat, or they could find themselves in serious trouble ? Is that a road you really want to be going down come on for f**k sake whatever happened to settling things with a right hander im fully aware theres some silly c**ts out there talking out of line but if it bothers you so much that you would go all legal eagle on them then just dont go on the internet its not compulsory. The problem though Gnasher is that the fella in need o

There we go thankyou squire a good honest answer to a simple question at last So a bit of an arsehole off the pitch but an outstanding competitor on it........well as a sports fan id judge him on what he does rather than what he says all day long but does what he did give him the right to be heard.... we tend to bestow that privilege on top ex players so i guess so.
-
Strange.....that Paul Mcgrath was no slouch was he.....and Keane could certainly put his foot in......im not sure he was the same plot of micks but Liam Brady was one of my all time favorite players i dont think ive ever seen a more naturally skilful player so what your saying makes sense.
-
The best at what ? drinking beer and singing ?.....no problem if that's what constitutes " good fans "....fill ya boots and all that. Ive been a West Ham fan my entire life i know what gallows humour is all about......but celebrating defeat i find bizarre sorry. Im not trying to piss on anyones shoes i simply wanted to know how Irish folk felt towards probably their greatest player of all time and it seems many dont hold him in particularly high esteem because he wanted to win too much.......which kind of answers my question Francie but cheers anyway.

Out...........but we will be in the minority im afraid.

No idea but whatever they offer you i,ll double it !!! I am a poor old man ,my fiver won't be any good to you youngster . It was only an attempt at humour ol boy but my smiley face things dont seem to work anymore......and im just not a " lol " sort of guy.

You have to be realistic id put Germany/Italy/Spain/France on one level.....Croatia/Belgium/England/Wales on the next........and the rest below that. If you keep things simple like that its hard to see England getting to the final whereas Wales must be in with a shout. Bollocks to tactical ploys they just give me a headache !

As competition yes boxers make boxing......but the reason boxing in Britain is currently going through an all time high in popularity and success is not because we have better fighters than we,ve ever had before as your 3 middleweight examples show......its because the money being generated in Britain is beyond virtually anywhere else in the world and that comes through great marketing.............dont get me wrong i cant stand all these silly conversations at the table and suchlike and im totally with you when it comes to our expectations of what constitutes a good contest but the manner in w

What are you a counsellor how do you know whats best for him I agree its refreshing that if he is a bandit he,s not self absorbed enough to think the general public are all sitting waiting with bated breath to know........who cares !
-
What i dont get is how sports fans can celebrate losing in the exact same manner they celebrate a great victory like last night !.....dont ask me to understand it because i never will,or want to. So this jealousy thing obviously wasnt tongue in cheek because you,ve said it again so i ask you again.....what is it im supposed to be jealous of ?.....have Ireland won the tournament while i wasnt looking or something ?
-
I think we,ll get past Iceland and go out in the quarters against France.....your lot on the other hand id be putting a crafty little bet on getting to the final just about now....cant see much for yous to really fear there.
-
Its only our media that hang our players out to dry.....fans who genuinely support the national team know the score and dont jump on that boat......again,most countries get behind their players not just Ireland.............anyway great result for the Irish last night totally deserved the win from the little bits i saw.
-
If you say so .....not sure i really get it to be honest.......or infact want to......how anyone can enjoy losing is beyond my logic. I thought he was sent home for being TOO professional ?......he was the captain and wasnt happy with the preparations far as i recall......again,a player like Keane has a winning mentality he,s not interested in going to the biggest football tournaments in his sport to show what a great time he can have i totally get that......didnt he tell Ferguson he was going over there to win it so why stay on an island that doesnt even have a football pitch....
-
Just shows how important topping the group was.....France,Spain,Germany,Italy all on our side of the draw.......Wales have Switz,Poland,Croatia,Hungary etc on theirs......i thought at the time that last nil nil would cost us.

Eubank Sr. Was He Right To Say That ?
gnasher16 replied to dark-destroyer-85's topic in General Talk
As is often the case what he,s saying is right......its just not his place to say it !..............i actually think its quite cruel what he,s doing Eubank knows the kid is not going to be top notch and is doing some kind of reverse hype job thinking he will be getting one over on Nigel when the kid fails......which in my opinion he will......theres a nasty streak running through that man in my opinion.. -
From a boxing fans point of view the differance between Duff and the Hearns always seemed to me was hype...all promotors hype fighters...just Duff came across more interested in making good fights ...just take a look at the middleweights i grew up with like Sibbson Minter and Finnegan...they all fought the best...all 3 fought and lost against Hagler (Finnegan lost to him twice in 6weeks both times on cuts)...and then look at the Hearns first big star Eubank snr...who dodged all the big names in the division and as i remember it gave up his WBC belt rather than fight them...yet years down the l

What people fail to realise with Eddie Hearn is he isnt doing anything that the likes of Mickey Duff/Jarvis Astaire/Barret etc were not doing before him......he,s just A, better at it than they were.....and B,he doesnt hide everything behind closed doors like they did.......so he,s a bit brash and cocky so what.......whatever he is doing is working as the sport in this country is bigger and more successful than it ever has been.......the questions he gets asked publically Duff,s answer would of been " get the f**k away from me before i set my henchmen on you ".......yet Hearn gets penalised fo

" Jealous ".......jealous of what ?......if yous go on to reach the final too right i,ll be jealous......not all sports fans see sport as a popularity contest mate Roy Keane has a winning mentality which i like,admire and understand.......i dont like admire or understand this smiley drunken Irishman mentality at all but its certainly nothing to do with jealousy......i,ll have a laugh and a giggle with anyone but i take sport seriously and would see absolutely no glory in being a loser but " loved around the world ". Jigsaw has just said Roy Keane doesnt have a sense of humour because he ha

Thats what its like when the mrs wears the trousers im afraid.

There you go 5 ft 5 thats alright plenty of good little lightweights and featherweights out there........thats the thing with Socks you see because he,s so fat he thinks its acceptable to call himself a heavyweight at 5 ft 6 !!........and those things he calls " special shoes for the vertically challenged ".....most of us just refer to as high heels ! I would never of asked such a question if i thought you was hung up on your height by the way im nosey but not a complete div !
