    Yep :)

    diehard - sorry, completely OT but it seems that this is the only way of contacting you at the moment. When you are banned then there is absolutely nothing you can do on the site, it seems to be identifying my IP and just saying "I'm sorry, but you are banned. You may not post, read threads, or access the forum. Please contact your forum administrator should you have any questions." regardless of what I try and click on or go to on NZBoxChat.co.nz so I have no means of finding an EMail address to use or anything useful. It's been this way since I first tried to sign up (maybe a good year ago?) but given the lack of info and not actually knowing who is in there I've been hands tied.

    Try turning your Modem off and on to get a new IP, Lith.

    Diehard may need to go into his website control panel and delete some of the banned IP addresses.

    Bring on Saturday :) It SHOULDN'T be too much of a test but fighting a south paw for the first time may well create situations which may make him appear "exposed" in ways and no doubt if that happens then haters will bring it up for the rest of history, but it's an experience he needs to tick up and a situation he has to get used to so hopefully it's a good sensible test and then they have a few months lay off and step into a more serious gear.

    How very wrong people are when spouting bs off personally bias opinions coming from the heart instead of a brain

    Bergman sounds like he plans to give Parker a legitimate test this weekend

    I hope so

    Parker needs to be tested and to get in some good rounds

    De Mori sounded like he wanted to give Haye a test and we saw what happened this weekend, talking a good fight doesn't mean anything. Bergman has been KO'ed early a few times once by a former Parker victim so I doubt that this fight will last long at all.

    It will be interesting to see how Parker does against a southpaw and I guess that's the only reason they have chosen Bergman. They seem to be trying to show Parker different styles, Martz was very tall and now Bergman is a lefty so even if it doesn't last too long Parker will have learned something just in the preparation for facing a southpaw fighter.

    Yep that's what I figure is happening which seems wise, it may disappoint people that it's effectively a step back but it's a new kind of fight which he probably shouldn't be thrown in the deep end with if he's shown any vulnerability with in the past. Here's hoping for a pass with flying colours and a good way to start a new year :)
