    Do you think that might have affected his hand speed ?

    This reenactment has always irritated me because of the galons of fake blood used to illustrate the brutality of the contest. This is based on old photos of the contest where there are dark stains in the corners of each fighter that in black and white photos looks like blood. In truth these are water stains on the canvas.

    You are probably right but,as it's black and white, its possible some of it at least could have been blood.

    P.S. Lets face it, it doesn't take much to irritate you.
    You're the kind that gets irritated, if there is nothing to be irritated about.

    Maybe you just have a habit of going out of your way to irritate me. People who dont know what they are talking about or have a tendency to lie in order to elevate their importance do that...

    No, Your Royal Smugness, you are just the irritable type,probably because us mere mortals cannot hope to match your infinite wisdom and unrivalled knowledge,we must be a constant dissapointment to you.

    Anyone with any sense ,would not try and compete with your exalted self in importance, or indeed elevation.
    Is it cold up there on Mount Olympus?

    You are a legend in your own mind:good

    PS Mendoza states he has seen the film too.
