    Your fighting a losing battle shaunster. Some of these Klittards like rico *** are too thick to reason with.

    What are you actually talking about? You didn't even ask a question :patsch

    You implied that somehow Haye was fast tracked differently to other fighters:


    I merely pointed out that this was false, as it's perfectly normal for a lineal, unified champion to move up a weight division and get a title shot quickly:

    You then completely ignored this point (which is amusing considering you're now accusing me of ignoring your post) and responded with an unrelated statement:

    Now, considering that you never actually asked me a question, and what you wrote had nothing to do with the point I was discussing, what are you actually talking about when you say . . . .


    :huh

    the mark of being self-defensive and answering a question with a question means, no, you don't want to

    that's all you had to say

    i remember messaging you a few weeks ago, the last time i was on, and complimenting you that you were one of the best posters on here but started taking things too seriously lately..

    you told me that was because you hadn't been working for a while

    you clearly still aren't - so with respect, maybe you should take a break from here so you can bring your sharp wit back to the board before you get sucked too far into the vacuum

    I suggest that you read the post above and see that I just genuinely don't know what you're talking about or what you want me to address. It's nothing to do with being defensive, or taking things too seriously - you just never asked me a question and simply made a statement that wasn't related to the point I made.

    Also, it's very nice of you to bring up something that I told you in a private message that for all you know I might have expected to remain private.

    Luckily I didn't.

    if you told me something in confidence i wouldn't have said it

    you're a smart man, so read my reply again..it shouldn't need to be rephrased to get a response

    EDIT : if you weren't being defensive the emotes wouldn't have come out to play

    I've read it - and it doesn't have anything to do with what I said about champions moving up in divisions getting 'fastracked' to title shots in other divisions. Nor does it ask any questions.

    I honestly don't know what that has to do with what I said, or what kind of response other than 'yes that's true' you would want me to write?

    Well, yes, because I tend to agree with things that are observably 100% factually accurately.

    He lost and he made an excuse. How would I NOT agree with that?

    Beating someone Vitali beat and beating Vitali is not the same thing

    Well it just seemed odd. Like making a statement saying 'the sky is blue' and then accusing someone of avoiding your post if they don't say 'yes, that's true'.

    And now for my question . . . .

    What does him losing the fight and making an excuse have to do with the fact that a champion moving up in weight often gets fastracked to a title shot in their new weight class?

    It's a shame VK doesn't seem to share your confidence.

    nothing directly
    but not performing against the HW king when haye built it up and smack-talked about both brothers for 2 years now makes him look bad that he fired blanks on the day and made excuses afterwards

    haye's smack-talk put him at the front of the queue pretty quick after beating valuev, but it turned into a fizzer

    same thing with calzaghe calling out prime jones and hopkins..it was all talk
