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.

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

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.

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 T

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........

When you think 4 pound seperates many divisions !

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

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.
-
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

Make sure its a MGM one

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

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 !!

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.
-
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..
-
From the little snippets i pick up around the gyms Haye has become comfortable living the celebrity lifestyle if i had to put money on it i dont think we,ll see Haye in the ring again despite what he says.......shame if you ask me but im a purist and probably sound like a broken record over the years going on about a super heavyweight division but the size of these guys like Klitchko/Fury etc has completely killed the division.......Haye has more boxing talent and ability in his little toe than these giants have in their whole body but a very average giant has a decent chance of beating a far

I dont think theres much lying in kids if you enjoy a good relationship with your kids once they are grown up it must be because they are happy with the job you did when they was young ?.....Im sure theres certain reasons they accept for not being around and theres reasons they wont accept........i was a complete disaster as a father and probably should never of had kids,which is brought home to me every day as they both have total contempt for me now they are young adults themself.........id love to have another crack at it and maybe the fact i,ll become a grandfather this summer for the firs

Wispa for me......or a nice mint Aero.......i like that light airy sort of chocolate rather than the heavy stuff but then i am a bit of a fairy !

I think if the Fury lot were truly confident in their man he would of been fighting a higher level of opponents than he has been,its the thing to do these days once a fighter reaches a certain level they use " not losing " as a way to shift themself up the rankings into mandatory position to get the one big payday.......but credit where its due he,s playing the game and seems to of matured a bit of late i like the cold calculated way he dealt with Chisora,i dont think he,ll beat Klitchko but from watching his fight the other day Klitchko isnt the fighter he was it will be a battle of the jabs
-
Right thanks mate he is using the clay type so possibly your right i,ll get him some of the paper bowls instead
-
True that no body seems to care anymore, but the world will stop moving to watch mayweather v pacciao in a weeks time people who wouldn't even watch boxing normally will be fired up for that one strangely, and yeah I think I will have it on record personally, we know the outcome anyway klitckho lol I think the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight is definately worthy of the attention its getting.....but the heavyweight division is just appalling !!
-
Thats it the toes are all crossed over each other and the bird just seems to lean on the whole leg rather than stand on the foot i dont think it has any control of the foot at all to be honest.

He had it on the top section of a group of nestboxes and its of the age where either the parent birds have f****d it off or its got out the nest voluntarily but it was on the floor just sitting there......he,s only a young kid and new to pigeons but i looked at the bird this morning and it dont seem right to me just leaving it so think i,ll go round in the morning and do the right thing.....i just wanted to make sure myself before upsetting him !
