    I disagree. His performance against Calvo wasn't him back to himself.

    The British forum on this site is very good, the general chat is mostly Mayweather and Pacquiao threads that get recycled every few days.

    The English don't seem to like it either. They aren't Welsh, Scottish or Irish, so don't call them British. Unless you want to get merked.

    You mean boxing, the sport? When you said "his boxing" I thought you meant a return to form or something.
     
  6. No, I meant from just going for the one big punch and relying on his power.
     
  7. The Irish are not British.

    And they definitely don't like it.

    Right, although anybody I've talked to at GnD (an english restaurant and pub) always includes it into what they aren't, I assume due to Northern Ireland being part of the United Kingdom, though separate from 'Great Britain'. :D

  13. Not for my money.

    The Heavyweight division was even weaker back then than it is now.

  15. Lucky they stop blowing stuff up now:shock:

    About 20-30% of the Scots want Scotland to be independent, and probably around 5% of the Welsh want Wales to be independent of the Union.
