    Not very nice PP, I do not like it when an elder gets insulted,especially someone as smart,experienced and courteous as Burt....I know this is all cyber talk but if we were all present in one room I may have to convince you the value of respect of the elders. I am in my 50's but can still KO a man with either hand and when I am unable as time goes buy I think I will still be able to swing a bat to the pleasant sound of crackling bones and I think Burt can do the same....be nice PP

    I have no idea why you are attacking me. I said pp shouldn't be attacking Burt. I can't see how I should be subject to one of your weird little verbals. I was laughing at nightcrawler's "steaming ****" remark.


    I seem to remember you got a ban for this nonsense a few weeks back.

    Very well said Bummy - I'm with you there - it would really be fun to get these assholes face to face and instruct them a bit more directly on manners

    yeah, and burt is polite even when he's in a rage.

    pp's comment had an "age-ist" element to it anyhow. There's no more need to focus on someone being a senior citizen than there is to incorporate racist and sexist slurs into 'internet banter' (and i know that goes on to).

    Anyway... Sometimes I think we miss the point on Dempsey-Wills. It's not what would have happened had they fought because Wills was just the sort of big lumbering puncher that Dempsey made a name by kicking the ever lovin' **** out of. To me the match is one of the easiest hypotheticals out there. Dempsey by KO pretty much anytime up to his hiatus. But these fights are not fought on paper and that fact that he did not get a shot is criminal and a black stain on Dempsey's reign.

    Well if it happens ahead of people starting things by throwing around obscene and absolutely shockingly disrespectful insults at elders and then others positively encouraging people doing that then there is something VERY VERY wrong somewhere - you should have enough brain power to figure that out so do yourself a favour stop making it look like your backing up the assholes on here else your more likely to get the chop than me - if the people who run this board are sane adults with any real sense of justice that is

    Although sometimes he can't type when he's in a rage...

    Buddy, **** off.

    I said pp shouldn't be doing that, THEN i laughed at a joke someone who hadn't said anything negative about Burt said. Then you waded in.

    If you're upset because I said I like Powerpuncher, there's nothing I can do about that, I like Powerpuncher.

    split, i think it's over. pp said some ****, got some flack, now it's done. the forum always has guys that push it a bit over that line. it helps sometimes to keep things from getting TOO heated. disrespectful? sure. i've been disrespected on here for YEARS...i was almost killed for a robinson thread way back. we can't take it personally or too seriously
