    Okay, fair enough.
    I thought you were being defensive (ie. that you thought my observation was a criticism) because you wrote "has there ever been a regulation against it?"
    No, I don't think there has ever been a rule against it.

    The problem with that argument is that it can on and on like this:
    Should we be watching boxing and commenting on it if we haven't stepped in the ring ourselves at the highest level?

    There are plenty of active and ex-boxers who were awful commentators on the sport and plenty of non-boxers who were and are really good. Commenting and criticising (in an objective, as well as impassioned way) is the lifeblood of this forum. So saying that Golota tried to look for an out in fights when he tried to look for an out seems pretty fair to me.

    And ive been a disrespectful "kid" to you and I want to publicly apologise to you. I hope we can forget our misunderstandings of the past....differences of opinion on a forum are fine but I went over a line quite badly so I apologise
    Kind Regards

    He saved his health and maybe even life versus Tyson. So it's understandable IMO.

    Christy Martin was a pioneer in her time. Tremendous athlete and an inspiration to women.
