    Yep. Sounds like he's trying to repress pretty hard, probably some memories from prison that he's got locked away.

    To me, I'm not buying a ticket to watch two grown men with panties on, sweating, with nuts in their face. That's not me

    But I think most of those people have chains and masks in their closets.

    Makes me laugh when people say boxing fans are worried about the success of MMA because we critisise it.

    Probably because reporters ask them irrelevant questions about a sport they have no interest in whatsoever.

    :good

    So B-Hop, what's your views on netball?

    They ask because they know he'll be controversial and it might sell them a few more copies.

    I have to say though, I've watched MMA a few times and it is so dull! I'm reluctant to point out the homoeroticism as that can be levelled at most sports. But it's f*ckin boring. If any of them knew how to slip and counter they'd have an '0' for years!

    I'm not gonna pretend to know the ins and outs, so I'll take your word for it.

    It's god awful to watch though, I know that much.

    I sort of like UFC, I've watched the odd event, but its so far below boxing in terms of quality, skill and drama, that the comparison becomes irrelevant.

    That said, I ****ing hate UFC fan boys, they spend a LOT more time trying to tear boxing down, than WE do slagging off the UFC.
