A question for posters on the british forum.

Apologies for the 'non boxing' thread I put in, I will keep it for the lounge in future. But you know me, I say whats on my mind at the time! If you catch me in the right mood, I will talk about anything! But as the man said, we should stick to boxing only in here. & Thats what i will do.

 

No problems JamboGaz my man. Thanks for explaining yourself. However, most boxers have to have an arrogance about them, its a tough sport & if you dont have utter & complete self belief, you will fall short. Sometimes as a boxing fan you have to realise if these guys didnt talk themselves up, they would either have no fanbase, or no TV interest. If Alex was a humble lad, where would he be now? Alex Arthur is big news, cos hes made himself big news throughout the years. A mans gotta do what a mans gotta do, & now hes on the brink of a superfight. Would he have gotten so far without a total belief in himself? Think about it, would Bernard hopkins be where he was today without total self-belief? Dont be so harsh on your own kind. This aint the street, this is world boxing, where self-confidence is necessary.

 

Me squabble with my own? Im just rallying the troops Ron...

 

Thanks very much for the nice words Hardhands, but believe it or not when I make these kind of posts Im speaking straight from the heart. Im not trying to kick up a fuss, thats too easy. If I wanted to just throw a cat amongst the pigeons, there are easier ways to go about it!

I would gladly take your 'class act' compliment if I deserved it, but I dont. Why? cos I am for real my friend.
