  1. Its this wishy washy hippy " turn the other cheek " cobblers that got us into the trouble our societies are now in with immigration......30 years ago some of us were ranting and raving about it but others were saying " it doesnt effect me so who cares "......now those same people are demanding something be done !! Why should we turn the other cheek and say " well im not bent so it doesnt effect me ".......you might not be an immigrant either but it still effects our societies we are all too quick to be tolerant and accepting of folk different from us....while all the time societies standar
  2. Nothing wrong with making mistakes if you get the chance to correct them and it sounds like you are taking that chance with both hands so good on you tb25. Great to see youngsters trying out different sports its a crime in my opinion that people are walking round with bundles of sporting talent that never come to the surface through lack of opportunity.......who knows where the next Muhammad Ali or Pele/Bjorn Borg/Steve Davis will come from if kids are not given opportunities in different sports. Where i came from you either kicked a ball or had a fight they were the sporting options..
  3. The whole " do i tell the family " thing is something that will be different for everyone and every family..........i thought i was doing the right thing not telling my lot about something last year then when they eventually found out they all threw fucks into me,my sister clumped me round the back of the head You cant do right for doing wrong with families i cant be doing with it......at least with your pals its all up front and honest !
  4. For me its more about " time and a place for everything ".......trying it on with a bird on a night out or in a pub etc no problem.....trying it on with a bird going about her business at home or work is not on for 101 reasons so why risk offending her................unless shes already given you a flash of course
  5. No its not crime of the century,and maybe he was footing a ladder.........but would he of said/done the same at a bloke passing ? Im not into all the feminism caper but i detest all this " lad humour " and " im a geezer because i drink beer and whistle at women " just as much. is that lad humour? he stood in the road and said 'hello love',and thats made into a national news paper. Lets be sensible ......if i called out " Hello " to someone.....depending on the tone i took it could either be taken as a pleasant " awww he,s a nice man " .....or in a different tone it could b
  6. Hopefully its just precautionary tests and nothing serious.......i wish you well If theres one thing ive learned this last year its that you cant have too many tests......better the devil you know and all that.......as regards family,would you want to know if your child/wife/parent was going through a traumatic time ? of course you would its only fair on you to know..... so you have to be fair to them as well.
  7. Should there have been a cap that prevented the likes of Joe Louis fighting Primo Carnera? Of course not..At 6 ft 5 and a half Carnera was a big man but that cant be compared with the trends we are seeing today.He was as heavy as most large fighters today and towered nearly every fighter of that era, he was a freak of nature. That didn't stop great smaller fighters from beating him just like it doesn't today.Can you not see the irony in what you are saying ?..............the fact we remember a fighter like Carnera from near 100 years ago is because he was a freak ......do you think Tyson Fury

  10. While i agree he deserved better the harsh truth is the likelihood of a black man being killed in police custody in America is 6 times more likely than a white man thats a statistical fact that has nothing whatsoever to do with prejudice its just common sense....same as if 6 times as many black people crossed roads as whites there will more than likely be 6 times as many black people get run over and killed than white........its not a difficult mathematical equation. So yes it is because they are black,but not for the " poor oppressed victim " reasons folk try to portray its a lot more sim
  11. Great reward comes with great risk.......nobody plays a game they dont know the rules to so make your decision live with your decision.....when on someone elses turf you play by their rules its quite fair.

  14. Who ?...................name me some other world class fighters throughout history who were 6 ft 8 + ? What im saying is these men are winning fights because of their size not because of their boxing ability and thats wrong........we have weight divisions to stop that happening......just as long as you are below 200 lb that is Human beings are evolving bigger......boxing needs to evolve with it. That's the whole point they weren't world class, if what you say is true then they wouldn't need to be world class to defeat the smaller yet better fighters. Ok forget world class........
  15. When you think 4 pound seperates many divisions !
  16. oh ok my mistake.......thought it was strange as i remembered reading some of your boxing posts before and you seemed to know your stuff

  18. Taking ridiculously awkward size away.....do you think Valuev was anything more than an average/decent boxer in any other generation than this one then ? Lets be honest and straight about it.....fighters like Klitchko/Fury/Price ( basketball player types ) couldnt lace David Hayes boots for technical ability and punch delivery.......at the same size it wouldnt even be competetive.
  19. If Valuev was a world champion quality boxer regardless of size......then im a world champion quality ballerina.......regardless of size ! He was the greatest heavyweight of all time without doubt..............but that was the days before freak size fighters........can you imagine a 5 ft 11 inch/13 and a half stone Rocky Marciano trying to fight a 6 ft 9 inch/19 stone Tyson Fury ?.........................it would be like me bashing my son about it wouldnt even be a fight......and thats the mockery being made of iconic heavyweight champions. A young lad could be coming through the ran

    All the best chief ...............better late than never
  21. The tragedy is mate both Klitchko and Fury would more than likely beat most of those names.......im no fan of Mike Tyson i think he was the most overated fighter in history.....but besides his punch he had good general boxing ability.......all of those names had some sort of star quality whether its Ali,s silky skills,Fraziers relentlessness,Louis timing and ability etc etc..................the star qualities the Klitchkos/Fury and the like have.........is size !............If Tyson Fury was 5 ft 11 i very much doubt he would even be a pro boxer.....they are average/decent fighters with freak
  22. In 2009 there were 0.7 % of white Americans serving jail sentances.......in the same year there was 4.7 % of black Americans serving jail sentances.........therefore blacks are over 6 times more likely than whites to serve prison sentances than whites in America...........what else is there to talk about .....or do they have a moral obligation to commit crime !!

    Ants

    Sorted now i just went in there and started growling they soon had it away on their toes scaredy little pricks !..............bought some sachets you mix up in water and poured it all round the outside....havent seen any since.
  24. To be honest mate i dont really keep tabs on the division worldwide id never heard of Klitchkos last opponent and so wouldnt have a clue whos faced the tougher opponents over the last few years the division is a farce and one of the least appealing divisions in world boxing.......If Furys camp are that confident i would think they would of faced stiffer tests than Derek Chisora who from my recollection is about the highest ranked opponent he has met. I wouldnt call Haye a con artist he pulled out twice and Fury pulled out once.....if its proven there was no shoulder injury then fair enough..
