Does the General Forum grind anyone else here down sometimes?

    Its very hard sometimes to keep track of posts and come back to them later.
    People post/repost the same question as on the next page.

    Blatant nut huggery clouds that forum too much sometimes.
    For instance after watching the Hopkins Pavlik fight I logged on the next day and I sort of half feared what I saw. The majority of posts were on Calzaghe! and how it enhances his rep or how B-hop would now crap all over him.
    The amount of posts on how great a performance Hopkins had that night was overshadowed. :-(

    One thing I will say for the Americans largely in the main forum - is that they do tend to totally ridicule the likes of Floyd for not taking the big fights choosing to remain unbeaten.

    It's a mess! I like to read it as you get the opinions on stuff from foreigners but having to wade through 50 "Calzaghe v Margo who wins" "Calzaghe v PBF who wins" "Ivan Calderon v Wlad Klitschko who wins" threads does my ****ing head in!

    To be fair I did exaggerate that one but it wouldnt actually surprise me if it has been done!

    Even though I am a bit "green" (to coin one of their phrases) around here I am already sick of the 100 threads a day on the same subject posted by largely illiterate yanks with little significance or interest. As a result of the of this the forum also moves too quickly and I can't be arsed to scroll through 2 pages of multiple post threads every 24 hours. Life is too short. Much more comfy in here!

    I feel there is a calzaghe underhand swipe in there somehow.

    Hatton not a big fight?

    Yeah it is annoying having to sieve through

    "Slappy ducking Dawson"
    "Heres how Dawson beats Calzaghe"
    "Will Calzaghe take Dawsons challenge"
    "Ricky Hatton v Rocky Balboa who wins"
    "Calzaghe runs from bad Chad"
    "Dawson will take Calzaghe apart"
    "It's a shame Joe wont fight Dawson"
    "Vitali v JMM who wins"

    to find something decent to read.
