    Imagine being arrogant enough to think an interventionist God looks on war, famine disease and suffering of innocent people and chooses to do nothing but gives a **** about you winning a boxing match.

    Haha...exactly;... 'Right that's the 4 fundamental forces and dark matter ticking over for a cosmic while...how are things on Earth I wonder?. A few problems I see, but more importantly that boxer needs my help. Better sort this Nebula and black hole out and get over there pronto. The Euro has Wotan in his corner, so he needs me.'

    yeah. Recently that horse face Shannon Sharpe on that talk show kept repeating that phrase over the Chris Paul/Rondo brawl. If anyone had been playing the drinking game theyd be in a coma after that.

    it completely makes me discount anything else they may have to say. like theres ever been a fighter who thought "you know what? im twice the fighter just one division down, but i look kinda big for it and i dont wanna be a bully, ill just stay here where im at a disadvantage".

    I'm actually waiting for the WBC to introduce a religious program to deal with all this spiritual doping the fighters are engaging in. They should be randomly tested to make sure that they're not invoking other worldly forces.

    Also, the whole premise that "one punch can turn the fight around when it comes to the Heavyweights".

    The people spouting this cliche obviously never watched Zuri Lawrence do his thing.:lol:
