    tyson wasn't religious in the beginning, he never thanked god after he knocked tfo everyone. or am i wrong? he became religious in jail and he probably spent too much time praying than training.

    You raise a valid point. God cares about your faith. Win or lose you should praise God if you or your opponent do not come up with any life threatening or career ending injury.

    They arn't thanking god for helping them win, they are thanking god for putting them in that position to fight and giving them the skills to win.

    Roy Jones has still thanked god after his losses to Tarver and Johnson.

    Boxers need motivation and hope when they train and fight. Believing in God helps a lot of people push themselves harder and feel more confident / safe. I'm not religious, but if it helps them, how can it be a bad thing? The people that are acting like it's an ******* thing to say are ******s. You don't believe in God or religion? Okay, then don't believe in it and don't insult people that religion has helped. People get hope and motivation from different things, only morons would think someone is an idiot for thanking God.

    If I was a bookie, I sure as hell wouldn't allow God to place any bets. That twisted ******* is fixing all of the fights.

    If the Americans want to pretend that their god is real, then an American fighter should be stripped of victory if he attributes it to his god.

    Saying that his god gave him added strength, for example, would be grounds for an appeal.

    It means that you think God takes the time to make sure you win a boxing match when there are millions of more important things God could be doing with his/her time/power.

    You're the narrow minded one calling someone names on a message board, the no hope for humanity is people like you that freak out over stupid ****. :good :hi: Get a life.

    Are you on crack? You call me names for saying its bull**** for boxers to thank God because "They are just thanking God" then you take a complete 180 and say God is not real. Do you even have an opinion? or are you just that stupid?:tired

    You seem to be so sure that he doesn't exist, just like the poeple who are so sure he does exist. Therefore you are just as ignorant as them. Ever think of that "smart guy". :good :****off :fy
