This forum is the best british boxing forum out there imo. First of all, its got the most activity. Second of all, it's got fighters and trainers posting. But the important thing is that posters still tell it like it is and if a fighter performs badly, posters tell it like it is. If people are talking about a mythical match up between a fighter on the forum and another fighter who is much better than him, people on the forum say that the better fighter would win. There is no arse kissing of fighters and this means people write what they think, unlike other forums. Paul Smith doesn't post here and criticised ESB for being "negative". No Paul, we are just honest about your level.
well played sir :huh seriously? thats embarrasing, how can they call themselves boxing fans or even sports fan if thats's true
You think its good now? You should have seen it about a year and a half ago. To be honest, I think its gone to the dogs, and looks more and more like the General Forum with each passing day. But I'm an old grumpy **** though.
Nah your right mate. I remember when i first joined....this forum was spot on. Now it's really frustrating because for every good post your gonna have 2 dire ones from trolls or clueless casuals who think there hardcore fans.
No arse kissing of fighters? How about the Khan for president thread / general awe that people have for his punch resistance because he manged to make it out of the fight (with a lot of help from Joe Cortez). This just shows outright bias. He did show greater experience and savvy to survive but not particularly good resistance to punches. We already knew he had a good heart anyway. He's probably improved his resistance a little from the move up in weight and better conditioning but it still seems pretty suspect.
I'm a noob here but have already noticed the British Forum has a lot more educated posts than the jungle that is the general forum, it is ****ing intolerable in that place at times.
You speaking shite Rob? Had a look at their DeGale-Smith RbR and couldn't find one post that said it was even before the 9th. Was it a different thread?
