  1. The sport used to be about who was the better man and that was important to boxers. Now it's about making as much money as possible and tactically avoiding those they might lose to. The only positive is that there will be a lot fewer ranked heavyweights who will become punch drunk in future years. They take a lot less meaningful blows to the head and have far fewer fights.
  2. Ranked 10 on the basis of one exhibition fight which he lost. Farcical!
  3. Sometimes I reckon heavyweight boxing is on its way out. It's mostly a TV event these days and try as they might, its not that interesting anymore. Youngsters will become more interested in WWF, Rocky films, competing giant trucks and computer generated fantasy fights than the noble art. The current crop of heavyweights have devalued the sport, made it boring and will end up killing it.
  4. Papers this morning are saying Fury will probably dodge the February Usyk fight.
  5. I can't think of a boxer in the whole history of the game who has so little talent, has fought so infrequently and has made so much money. Except Fury.
  6. Could somebody with a wood lathe fashion a pith helmet for you out of a coconut half? Smoothed down and painted cream, with a dog collar for a chin strap could be the very solution.
  7. Looking back through old photos can be quite emotional. Sometimes you can see your own self peering back at you. Here's a poem by Thomas Hardy which sums it up perfectly. 'Heredity' - Thomas Hardy WEB.CS.DAL.CA
  8. I have no idea what photo editing is CP. And not much inclination to find out Lol. Learning how to post a photo was intellectually taxing enough. I know my limits Lol.
  9. At last. Lol. This is my grandad in his Boer war uniform,complete with pith helmet. His wife and some of his older children are superimposed. It must have been taken between 1899 and 1902. I have a picture of him in the glasshouse somewhere about. He was put in there because he had beef with another soldier. They were put together in a boxing ring and my grandad lost according to the ref. But there was uproar as the decision was disputed by onlookers. So the fight continued and both men were put into a makeshift glass house. They emerged 24 hours later best of mates and sev
  10. How about steely, cold calmness
  11. Hope this works Gmail MAIL.GOOGLE.COM Gmail is email that’s intuitive, efficient, and useful. 15 GB of storage, less spam, and mobile access.
  12. Hawkins famous quote: "However difficult life may seem there is always something you can succeed at"
  13. You have to remember that we of a certain generation and persuasion are not up to speed with paedophile news. So I haven't seen a list. I look forward to seeing it this week. I was led to believe the female who is fighting against publication of the names is terrified for her life as her former attackers may take violent action against her for her role in exposing them. A judge is going to decide on that issue this week. She has to persuade the judge that her life is in genuine danger or not. But I may be wrong.
  14. He's got another 3 goes to be the first world teenage world champion darts champ
  15. I was thinking the same but didn't want to offend the lad. Lol
  16. Yes it takes some working out. Same as the paedo prince Andrew. Not forgetting our Charlie boy. He chooses dried prune Camilla when he has his pick of all sorts of women.
  17. Sorry mate. Senior moment lol
  18. I hope so. Time will tell. Had to laugh at Bliar gaining the support of Maxwell and his media empire and then stuffing his wife.
  19. I thought they were all powerful money men Mc. Who were the lefties?
  20. She's moaning she is the only individual and a female at that, to be doing jail time for pimping for Epstein. All the men involved, have up until now, gotten away Scot free. Except for Epstein himself, who no doubt would have plea bargained and would have been released after serving a few months, as he has done in the past. The names of passengers on the Lolita Express are due to be published very shortly. Will any of those names face charges? I'm not holding my breath.
  21. Yes I remember that. There's a fortnightly satirical magazine, Private Eye. They've been exposing the story right from the beginning. The GPO has known for years that their software was faulty but covered it up, inflicting absolute misery on honest people.
