    It's gone to purse bids

    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=+1][/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The WBO has called a purse bid for the mandatory title defense of WBO junior lightweight champion Roman “Rocky” Martinez against #1 rated Ricky Burns. The purse bid will be held on January 13 at the WBO Headquarters in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The minimum bid is $150,000.

    **** dickhead.


    Like I have said a million times before. I am a huge fan of Scottish boxing and usually support the Scottish boxer over the English man. Alot of my family are from Scotland.


    I just do not think much of Burns. I can not see him beating anyone decent.

    Sorry. Due to how thick certain Scottish poster are on here I will probably keep using it. Dunky is a ****. Billy Nelson is pretty dumb most of the time with his 'everybody hates us' attitude.


    Sorry he already embarrassed Burns once so no point doing it again. :hey


    Yep Carl is a class below fighters like Mitchell. That was a cracking fight and he had Mitchell worried at times. Hopefully Carl has something left now he is coming back but in honesty not matter what the talk is about him training better and being focused more on the sport instead of booze he will probably not be the fighter he once was. Should still be in some good fights though.

    No. Are you?

    Why is the term Jock offensive? I will stop using it. Do not want to offend decent posters.

    It's not that offensive... I took more offence to "Due to how thick certain Scottish poster are on here I will probably keep using it."

    Just because their Scottish doesn't make them thick... they achieved that on their own :D

    It's a derogatory term... it's like me assuming that you on the other side of this wire stroking a whippet while cooking a hot pot

    always like this stereotype though ""a Yorkshireman is a Scotsman with all the generosity squeezed out of him" :yep

    Good point. I am proud to keep the old Yorkshire traditions going though. Too many soft southern folk have moved up here in the white flight over recent years.
