    Good question although Ty had already reported that it was sub par Russian cuisine.

    Yeah meet him a few times , really good guy. He is very good freinds with my Dad's cousins, who you can see in the ring with him after he won the title off Jake the Snake.

    Have some signed gloves off him too that I have been meaning to frame.

    KT fought at the same weight in the Amiturs as well, so he was a true / carrer JWW.

    What is this anus thing about? Two people have called me an anus, am I missing some really funny joke or something?

    The Johnny Lewis book was a great read, boxing definitely needs an overhaul behind the scenes, it's full of sharks.

    Please don't feed the troll Stiffy.
    Socio has a pattern. He is a big noter who ingratiates himself to high profile people he could never emulate in real life and then proceeds to stab them in the back. :verysad
