I make you right, and for the reasons I stated. The vast majority of people I've seen around these XL types are clowns who either want a hard looking dog, or, want to make money by selling hard looking dogs to clowns, and the dogs have no other purpose. Take that away/make it harder, and they'll just drop them. The reason there was passionate/dedicated owners that kept the a.p.b.t. going after the DDA of 91, was because it wasn't about the money they could make out of them, but about the total appreciation/awe/addiction to their sporting qualities, and the breed was a whole lot better for

Yep, the big difference for me is, the XL had no legitimate use, and is largely in the hands of f.ucking idiots, from what I've seen. I think the clowns will just get rid, the people who genuinely have them as pets will abide by the rules and keep them as such. Going back to the original DDA, I've said it before, and will stand by it, it was the best thing that could have happened to the genuine a.p.b.t. it left them largely back in the hands of the people who appreciated they're natural qualities. I honestly think if the only people who had ever owned them (a.p.b.t) were those who used them f

I'm going from memory, the original act was a total ban on breeding, selling, advertising of "pit bull type" dogs. All existing dogs to be neutered, third party insurance, and muzzled and on the lead in public places. Any contravention of the above would see your dog taken and destroyed. I can't remember when the amendment came in, late 90's/early 00's I think? But basically it meant if you was caught owning a banned breed, it wouldn't be automatically taken. If the dog was of sound temperament and you adhered to the other rules, neutered/insured etc, you could keep it. I think they

They done the same with the a.p.b.t. back in 91. It was £50 then. I see there's some rescue shelters already refusing to take these (XL bullies) in. Surprised they're still being advertised for sale to be honest, again, back in the day, the e&m etc stopped taking adds for a.p.b.t's long before the law came into effect... Yokel

Oh, and just to add, can you imagine the shite that he and his hangers on would be shouting if AJ or Usyk had just put in that performance against a boxing novice..... Yokel

I think that was the long and short of it, and has proved what others have been saying for a long while. Take away his size advantage, and his (severe) limitations are clear to see. I think he's shot himself in the foot with this shambles. Like you and others, I had no interest in this until I woke up Sunday morning and clocked the news, I just had to have a peek, and YouTube came up trumps. I honestly don't see it as a scam to pump interest for whatever either, I can see the reason for it, but he genuinely looks dejected and the fact his old man has remained silent speaks volumes i.m.o. ...lo

Worth a listen.... Yokel

Fury's body language says it all to me here. He doesn't want any part of usyk anytime soon i.m.o. I can see him retiring..... AGAIN. Even his gobshite old man kept his mouth shut. What a f.ucking embarrassment, the WBC "gypsy king" blah blah, getting spanked by a man who'd never had a pro boxing fight. Yokel

That's what McHull goes shark fishing in, no rods or tackle required, just powers up beside them, then jumps in a shows em the back of his hand!!!

Sparing partner for Mchull.... Yokel

Great little fight from a few years back.... Yokel

Yep, I get what you're saying. It's exactly what happened when they passed the act in 91 and tried rounding up the "pit bull type" as I said before, they took more cross breeds and pets and caused a lot of fuss. But the banning of sale, breeding, advertising etc will cause most of the idiots churning out these animals to stop, and having to shell out on insurance will get rid of most of the silly arse, 9 stone wet tracky wearing chav owners. what they move onto is another question!...

Here's the common sense approach i.m.o... XL bullies added to the existing DDA. Making it illegal to breed and sell so, in theory no other dogs being added to the existing population. All existing dogs MUST have liability insurance and be muzzled and on a lead in a public place. Any dog uninsured, unmuzzled and running amok to be destroyed and owner charged under the current legislation. If that was followed you will end up with an aging population of xls in the hands of responsible owners......we shall see... Yokel

Same thing happened with the 91DDA, they wouldn't accept that the a.p.b.t. was a breed so it was added as "pit bull type" anything over the KC Stafford standard height was basically of that type. They took more family pets, X breeds than they did genuine a.p.b.t's. But I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the 91dda was the best thing that happened to the genuine bulldog at the time i.m.o. it took them out of the hands of the idiots and those breeding indiscriminately, and left them with those who kept them for their original purpose and under the radar for a while. Unfortunately, it tur

On more than one occasion, when I've been trying to explain "gameness" to friends who aren't familiar with the term, I will always point them in the direction of the "thriller in Manila" the conditions they fought in, temp/humidity etc, and the non stop action over 14 rounds, both men pushed themselves above and beyond. I believe Ali said that's the closest he came to dying, futch thought Joe was at genuine risk of doing just that! I've watched that fight so many times, and If Ali was the greatest, well, ol' Joe was most definitely the gamest.... Yokel
