    Hardcore George Foreman fanatics(Ken Norton, Foremans Hook, Franken Frank, Revolver) turn out to be the worst posters on the site. It's an insult to Foreman's name.

    Somewhat amusing that you would threaten legal action after all the offensive photoshops you have come out with.

    This is very true. There's been an influx of mongo's in the last few months. I don't care about in the Lounge, or to an extent the General now that it's a joke, but the Classic is the place I came to post properly and where I felt I didn't have to worry about idiots like Foreman Hook, KenNorton or frankenfrank.

    Sadly that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. It's still great, but it's slightly tainted now by the fact that there seems to be a few flids joining and sticking around. We definately need a full-time moderator over here. I appreciate that the likes of RD can't be every and he does a great job elsewhere, but I feel we need another mod, somebody who regularly posts over here.

    I did actually PM RossTheBoss saying just that (and nominating Chris Pontius :D) but I never did hear back from him.

    I have to agree. This guy knows Tyson better than Tyson knows Tyson.

    Done. The offensive content was edited out. Another moderator previously banned the offending poster. We do take concerns like this seriously, and do the best we can.

    Please press the report button if this poster, or others of a similar nature, continue to cause trouble. Without people reporting issues, we don't necessarily know it's going on. We can't be everywhere at once. This is a very large forum.

    Thanks for the cooperation.

    FFS cut the guy a bit of slack. Is he gonna get this **** to his dying day? OK, he hasnt been an angel but the guys been through a lot lately and maybe hes reflecting to a happier time in his life. Ever hear of not kicking a man when hes down?

    Suspected by who exactly ? I've read, I believe, that there was an individual living in the house in Catskills who had some kind of sexual relationship with one of the younger fighters.

    This is from his pro debut. Does he want th ringwalk photo only? I might have it, but I would have to dig through a ton of boxes.
