    Latest addition may be the Porters.

    Floyd always look spectacular under Floyd Sr for some reason.

    Whilst they were being gracious , Siri was celebrating having mounted a sustained attack towards lomas hips and groin....not complaining to the ref as the trainer or telling your fighter to throw low blows back is nothing sort of incompetent.:deal

    The fathers were apparently decent friends, theres a story about them going for a meal or something before their fight

    Very true, I'd say inexperience in both the fighters and trainers side (in the pro ranks)

    Def can't guide a fighter to the record Loma has without gd knowledge and skill, even if the fighter is ultra talented
