:good No probs mate. Nice list there.

I think the sad thing is atm on here this forums lost the regulars. There's regulars but either new or under alias or just new trolls. Need to rebuild a community on here again.

Hopefully this site can get back to what it was like in 2008 etc. It will take time but can be done..

 

International fight of the year and obviously a tradegy was perez vs abdusalomov. Great fight, tragic aftermath. Having said that Baradley vs Prodnilov was great as was broner vs maidana.

Knock down of the year was deffo seeing the **** Broner put on his well laid arse for the first time!!!

Same to you Mandanda/Skills.I personally am glad I started with this forum.Was welcomed to it a couple of years ago by yourself and Al Francis,thanks.Others not so welcoming,but a lot of those have left for the other place.I go on that sometimes because Im a bit of a fanatic.Got a soft spot for this,though.I agree with you about keeping the racism,etc out of it.Weve all one thing in common,with a few exceptions.We all like boxing.This is a place to air our views,maybe to argue,but not slag each other off.Merry Christmas to all.

 

PS Can I put forward 2 for foreign boxer in GB?Two obvious ones:Bundu and Beltran.

 

Spot on Ted :good. This forum's still got life in it and i hope we can get back to boxing on here. As you say that's why we're all here.
