    Boxing terms - replies - we see in the main forum that perhaps don't belong here?

    *perhaps this belongs in the lounge, if so, sorry, and it will get moved*



    "Nuthugger"..... There must be a British equivalent to this term?


    "Douchebag"... what?

    I am reliably informed by Mrs Icemax that a douche bag is something that US women use to internally clean their fannys (mix of water/vinegar solution)....brit meaning, not US. :tong What the **** is wrong with a soaped up loofa?

    IMO

    Douche bags equivilent is - Fool -... a bit softer then dickhead.

    Not sure...about your "fanboy" to "Nuthugger"... that term is a bit Americanised as well.

    Geek?

    I agree...

    Anyway, had a few beers... I just see all these American terms used everwhere, and thought about there British equivalents. Nothing more, nothing less...

    I agree, but can we really go around arguing about Jo Calzaghe's CV; for example.

    New thread...

    "How good was Thomas "the hit man" Hearns Curriculum Vitae" :D

    Having thought about it why don't we just refer to a fighters "record"?

    Yea, I think I used to refer to it as a record, till I started getting involved in boxing talk over the net.
