Amir v Barrera - Don King not a happy bunny

140 is going to be even tastier so i dont think he will be doing much there

 

Yeah I'm familiar with both. The Fitness Studio is the meeting place for the local teen roid heads to congregate and compare "don't look at me i'm hard as ****" looks whilst jizzing off over their own reflection.

The shed I have a lot more time for, that's a proper gym. I didn't know you were on about THAT shed!

Ah the memories. When we were about 11 me and my mate went to join up one night. We bought gumshields, hand wraps and everything. We cycled up there bold as brass and then totally **** it when we saw the other guys going in and cycled back home with our tails between our legs.

 

So all of that's Barrera's fault is it? Regardless of what we may think of certain promoters, surely the wellbeing of the fighters are our primary concern here. The fight was a farce as far as I'm concerned and should have been ruled a no contest. King is right to contest this and I hope he's successful.

 

So you know the boxing shed then?

You should have gone in - as when you are new there you would not have been pressured to spar until you were ready

I train back there in around 1996/1997

I trained for a bit in the Fitnes Studio too - and yes it is a very superficial place.

If you go in there in December you would swear it was Summer time in the Carribean !!!!!!!!!!!!!............................as everyone is soooooooo tanned.

They spending £50 a week on sun beds.

And yes there is twatish ego's up there.

There was this one guy I dont know his name so I will just call him

TAN MAN

This TAN MAN was all about being vain and loving himself in the mirror

Anyway I use to just go up there to go on the running machine / and cross trainer - and do a circuit of weigh training

I would just mind my own business and keep myself to myself

But this TAN MAN who give me all these death stares, nasty evil looks, what a total *****.

Really egotiscal ****ing *****.

 

Yeah I always thought that it looked like a good set up, we just were never quite brave enough to go in. I ended up going to train at the gwent in townhill with my dad's mate who was a pro at the time. It was great but they pretty much much told me straight away that my eyesight was too **** poor to fight competitively so it fell by the wayside. Doubt I would have had the discipline in my teenage years to make a real go of it anyway.

I wouldn't touch the Fitness Studio with a barge pole mate, way too many self proclaimed 'ard lads. I go to Life Fitness in Llansamlet now, much more relaxed and better equipment to work with.

 

Flint, I reckon Eddie Thomas must have at least stepped inside that shed at one time or another and it should therefore be preserved as a national treasure....****ing progress :-(

 

I doubt that the self proclaimed hard boys of the fitness studio are up to much in a fight

For starters they would not want to get their pretty gelled spikey hair messed up in a fight

also

if you grab them during a fight and wrestle with them you might end up smudging some of their fake tan off and ruin their "perfect" image.

I dont know if you heard of a guy who trained up the Fitness Studio

goes by the name

Rob Terry - about 28 years old now I think

he was ****ing massive - and he went out to Amercia and wan a few body building comps out there

and he was in a resutrant and Vince Machmon approached him and ended up signing him to the WWF wrestling world

and he out in America now training to be the next big wrestling star and he "acts" as a bodyguard to Triple H and them big stars

Dont get me wrong though - wrestling is a big joke - actors

Get them in a boxing ring and these boxers would bash them right in

Anyway the guys up the fitness studio are walking around with all these tropical tans

and outside it is freezing january with cold, ice, sleet, snow and the sun aint be out in months

 

Barry McGugain came down here in the 1980's. :deal

Him and Colin Jones are fighters of the same era :yep

 

I hope that Colin told little Finbar to **** off and find his own gym

 

McGaugain came down here to play golf in the Bont

then he popped by the gym
