    James is a good guy (comes across that way anyway) and had you bang to rights to be honest.

    Probably best if you didnt poster for 48 hours or so and let things blow over. :smoke

    James Wilson ask twat.

    "Seriously, I don't know who you are other than (as was mentioned earlier in the thread) someone who posts on eastside. And as you can gather I'm not someone who thinks incredibly highly of the board there as I posted there donkeys years back. Lot of members but reasoned debate wasn't commonplace"

    I've just read the thread, that James Wilson does come across as a bit of a dick.

    From what I can see Rob misinterpreted the intent of the article and went a bit OTT afterwards. A keyboard warrior decided to get involved, an apology was made, and that's it.....

    Boxrec does seem to me a bit like a Gentleman's club.... posters get shot down for introducing debate about non-British fights, then there's the bizarre instance of fighters calling each other out online :lol:

    I'll stick to ESB I think..... at least you can have the craic.

    Well I prefer the decorum on BoxRexx to be honest. More conducive to intelligent debate and more knowledgeable posters as well I find. They still are about as interested in Irish fighters there as they are here but that's the crucifix that I bare daily!

    Honeslty if you got involved in posts about non irish fighters a bit more, I think others would start to post on your articles and irish threads.

    the actual articles you write are fantastic, just on here can come across all you care about is irish fighters.

    was refreshing to see you bering critical of Morrison as an opponent as well. Lees new one isn't much better but I get a felling the scheduling of the fight (sep 17) is so he can step in if someone breaks a rib lol.

    Lee doesnt give a shite about the EBU title. Is that clear enough for you?

    The guy top prospects like Jacobs , Guerrero went against. His name is michael walker. Headlining again on ESPN is still a big deal. Great for a boxers profile.

    Really ESPN headline.

    Not a great opponent but good exposure.
