Me and CST have locked horns mainly about Wilder no way someone can tell me he is a not a pretender!

 

You also picked Martin to KO Joshua.

 

If you change codgers to codger that sentence could equally apply to wilder.

Personally I don't think the rise of Joshua and Wilder is a return to glory for the division but we are at least getting competitive fights which for a long time we weren't.

 

What? You're telling me the Incredible Hulk ain't natural? Show me one shred of proof! Shame on all of you.

 

David Price will win the next one and Big Daddy Browne is on the comeback trail!

 

Even VADA don't test for gamma radiation which in my eyes is an absolute disgrace.

 

Price has had more shots than Cristano Ronaldo at this point. He has to stop being given them as a right and start earning them if he wants any more. He's never managed to upset an applecart or even won a fight that he was only slightly favoured in.

If he does fight Browne can we make that a loser retires match like they used to in WWE.

This is easily my favourite boxing interview of all time. Just to set the context, MICK HENNESSY REMORTGAGED HIS HOUSE to finance this fight.

I've timestamped the greatest part of the interview below:

"I'm not being funny here but WHAT THE **** IS GOING ON?!"

Absolutely legendary interview that changed the face of this forum forever.

I've timestamped the best meme this forum has had for a long time, "shades of Ali":

"I mean the footwork, and he glided around that ring, hitting him with jabs at will. Touching him and explosive with it. IT WAS SHADES OF ALI THE WAY HE WAS MOVING."

What an absolutely legendary interview, I will never forget this.

Also an amazing part of the pre-fight press conference, timestamped. Big Peter Fury verbally unleashing HELL on Higgins.

"Take another line ... You're rattled ... HEY AND ANYTHING YOU WANT TO ****ING DO ABOUT IT, WITH YOUR BODYGUARDS. COME HERE! LISTEN, WHO GIVES A **** ABOUT YOU ANYWAY?! TAKE ANOTHER ****ING LINE! WHO GIVES A **** ABOUT YOU!? OR YOUR ****ING BODYGUARDS?! WE COME FROM THE STREETS, **** OFF!! DICKHEAD! SQUEALING LIKE A PIG! YOU DON'T BELONG IN FIGHTING CIRCLES, LET THE MEN FIGHT, ****ING DUMMY!"

 

But I thought Tyson was standing by Mick as he's loyal and stood with him and backed the court case against UK doping
what did i miss

 

I got my most liked comment ever in a thread from that interview.

"Mick going on hunger strike for 20 minutes in protest of the decision."

 

That was an amazing RBR, I’ve bumped it for the anniversary.
