    Which it is, if you fail the BBB of C medical whether you are 21 or 41, you do not get a licence.

    I know, I'm saying that's the way it should be done. As it is presently.

    Why's that then? You're a Floyd Mayweather fan FFS

    B-Hop is a top 40 ATG (arguably) and just beat the no.1 LHW (arguably again but he still gets massive kudos IMO for even getting a draw at his age, everyoe beforehand said he would either get bashed up or spoil throughout. Neither happened) and is the best techncal exponent of the textbook game.

    Still never been stopped either.

    The games better off without him? I would love to smoke whatever you are puffing Rob, and those who know me know that I sincerely mean that. Pass that shot over, it must be some new **** I ain't heard of :rasta

    Exactly.

    George Foreman, who was essentially a heavy bag with powerful arms in his 40s, seems to be doing pretty well too.

    Evanders is due to what he did in his youth. If he had always competed like he does now, I imagine he wouldn't be as bad.

    You must be on strong enough stuff to be watching wrestling or whatever they call it.

    Hey, the wrestling aspect intrigues me. I won't deny it, I think a takedown, be it judo or wrestling, is a useful aspect in combat.

    I don't compare MMA and boxing, I enjoy both sports seperately, as someone who likes goofy and tennis might.
